Saying that all rap is sexist or degrades women is like saying that all rock music is about suicide and drugs..... BUT the most popular rap is about sexism,drugs,racism and all that. I don't approve a a genre of music that makes all these things cool and popular. Since when is being "ghetto" a thing to strive for?

I like hip-hop/rap, and it would have to be mainstream rap, i don't really like underground rap tho. And for all you people labeling rap as the genre just about sex, drugs etc. you couldn't be more wrong, many of the songs in rap also aren't about sex, drugs etc. Rap is said to be the most judgmental genre of music, and all you guys just fill this cliche of rap='ghetto'=about sex and drugs, and gather from this that rap is bad. All the people that say rap is just about this stuff, stop hating, you probably don't even listen to rap and you don't know half about of what there is to rap, you obviously filled your brain with BS about how rap is nothing but negative, and you are oblivious to the positives. I don't have a problem with people that don't like rap, just the people that say it's nothing but guys rapping about gang banging and drugs when its not. For instance, I'm not a fan of opera music, the reason being that I simply don't understand it. Even though I dislike opera, I'm not gonna go out dissing it all the time saying it shouldn't exist and that its just people screaming, and the people who listen to it are 'retards'. All I'm saying is just have some respect for the genre, there's no need for the extensive passion of hate against rap, there's more to it than you think, just like most things in life.

It's disappointing for so many people to degrade a music genre. I don't listen to rap, or plan on listening to it. Heck, I don't listen to much music at all, I'll only hear it if someone else is playing it. I disagree with a majority of the arguments here, mostly because you glorify other singers who promote messages just as bad as rap music tends to do. All rappers sing about guns, violence, and slapping hoes? I could just as easily say that 70's and 80's music promotes the use of mind destroying drugs and burning down government buildings and the like. You can't define a genre of music by what the artists sing about, it's about how it's presented and sounds. Some rap could talk about killing cops, while other rap could talk about their family, it's the same with any music. I don't like the thought of someone dropping acid just as much I dislike the thought of someone slapping a prostitute or something.

Sephitard9001 : That was very well said. That is the most non-biased comment that I've seen in the thread. You're all right.

AndersonG22 : Those are all good. However, many of the young kids who like rap, tend to think that Tupac and Biggie are as classic as it gets. There's a plethora of great rappers of the 80s. I don't even think most kids know who Rakim even is. He's only the guy that instilled the biggest change in the rapping aspect of rap music. Without him pretty much making everyone else's flow look bad, everyone would still be rapping like the Sugar Hill Gang.

Here's some advice that I heard a while back: Don't listen to yesteryear's music with your present day ears. You won't enjoy it. Listen to it as if you were there right when it came out. If you listen to something as if it is old and dated, it will sound old and dated. Appreciate the music for its originality, pureness of its sound, and just it's indescribable qualities.

I personally don't care much for it. I used to listen to it when I was growing up until I realize that it was stupid and most of it rapped about gang banging and sex. I lost interest in that, because of the inappropriate lyrics. Yes there are other generics that are just as bad, but rap is vulgar about it. I still listen to very few rap music. That's because it is catchy and clean.

I find the way some of you generalize rap to be ignorant. Let me begin by saying that not all rap is about degrading women and being thugs. There are so many rap artists that talk about serious topics. Let me go back to the 1980's with Public Enemy and Boogie Down Productions. These two rap groups had amazing lyricists and rappers in Chuck D and KRS-One. They talked about topics such as police brutality, government and oppression. I do have to say that today's rap has deteriorated at an amazing rate. Buffoons like Soulja Boy use the mainstream idea to commercialize their upbeat songs filled with meaningless lyrics, plain garbage.

A lot of really great rap groups, however, are part of the underground community. Groups such as Hieroglyphics, Jurassic 5 and The Sound Providers are some of these underground hip hop groups that talk about meaningful topics.

Also, Eminem is no saint. Yea, he may have talked about his mother being a drug addict and raising a daughter, but he does have songs that do nothing but degrade women.

In general, I cannot stand rap. But it is true that there are those that don't fit the popular image of what rap is. I guess I should say that the rap I despise is "gangsta rap". Those rappers pretty much have four songs. 1. Gang activity like murder, weed, etc. 2. B****es and Hoes 3. How awesome they think they are 4. This one can be summed up by one of Mike Jones's songs: "Back then they didn't want me. Now I'm hot, hoes all on me". Pretty much "I was in the ghetto and nobody cared. Now I'm famous and awesome so everyone wants a piece of me". They are so full of themselves.

There are a lot of artists out there who rap about something real, but they just don't get the spotlight. Eminem is one of the few that got a name for himself, but even he started out rapping about murder in most of his songs. But I have personally heard quite a few that I have heard and thought they should be the one getting platinum hits.

I used to listen to rap until I learned that most don't write their own music or lyrics. And they actually have no talent whatsoever. When I listen to rap the racist part of me comes out of me because it just shows all the stereotypes about black people and makes them all seem so true. Listening to rap actually makes me look down on black people as a whole and just makes me feel that a majority of them strive for the ghetto lifestyle and nothing more in life.

My whole childhood I was raised around Hip-Hop and Rap. I'm glad I strayed away from it because it no longer has any real meaning. If I were to listen to rap, it would have to be the old school rap, because they put a lot more thought into their lyrics, then they do in modern day "C"rap. I usually try not to generalize a genre, because many other genres can talk about sex,drugs,power, and violence. It's ironic for me to defend rap since it doesn't tickle my fancy in any way, but some rap artists sing beyond what is usually heard.
But rap isn't really singing, but more like reciting something from your essay.

There are very few rap songs that I actually like. For the most part, I just don't like it. =| It bores me.

chacarronsau : Your comparing Underground Rap with Mainstream Rap (I hate to have to use that word).They are practically two different species. Underground music in general usually talks about something more serious (Politics, life, society,etc), where as Mainstream Rap only speaks of the materialistic things (Luxuries, Drugs, Money,etc). It may be ignorant to generalize rap but that's if your grouping them all together as one.

Vizzed.com is very expensive to keep alive! The Ads pay for the servers.

Vizzed has 3 TB worth of games and 1 TB worth of music.  This site is free to use but the ads barely pay for the monthly server fees.  If too many more people use ad block, the site cannot survive.
