Rap...is not music, in my opinion. It's all computer generated. It requires a small amount of talent. And about 90% of it has a negative drone and/or message.

I don't know. All that rap is, is clicks and whistles.

Still, even though it's computer generated, that can be said about a lot of current music.

I've studied a little bit of Korean before, actually. If you're going to insult me in Korean, at least don't use Google Translate.

What most don't know is that Rap actually starts with a silent "C"

I grew up listening to Queen, Aerosmith, Scorpions, AC(lightning bolt)DC, Ozzy... Journey... War... Eagles... Warrant...

Rock

I don't really listen to Country - I am merely stating that Country music supplies hot chicks.

[computerfox]

oh yeah i see what you're saying and even i have to admit, country girls are kind of cute. many of them are blonde, that's just the only thing, i prefer brunettes.

Agreed. Except there is some decent Country that's got a little bit o rock flavor in it. That's the Country I like.

[computerfox]

i like some of the guitar players that play country, but that's about it. i don't really listen to country, unless my guitar teacher puts something on for me to observe.

Like the Eagles. A lot of the Eagles can be considered Country and yet they still kick loads of ass.

As for the Rock/Rap battle ... really both have up and down sides. Personally, I like many genres though Rock is my first and favorite. But even some rock I consider absolute rubbish. Mainly that new screamo shit. Really I don't like much new metal either. I've seen Dimmu Borgir in concert and I kind of wish I hadn't. I've gone to Ozzfest a few times and liked less than half the bands each time.

Examples of what I deem great rap and rock:

Rap: Tupac, Flobots, Dr. Dre, Bone Thugs n Harmony, The Lonely Island (LOL).
Rock: Anything from Nirvana to Tom Petty to Metallica to Pink Floyd.


On a side note, DEATH TO SUB GENRES. Seriously, they are pointless and not standardized at all. What's the difference between death metal, black metal, satanic metal and the lot? ...

For me it's not Rap or Rock, but rather its Rap vs Metal. In which i case i choose metal. Im black and rap is far from my favourite type of music.

Rap, however someone may like it, is not a form of music. It is most commonly only a very baseline poetry set to others peoples musical creations. Generally 90% if the music is someone else's sampled stuff as a backdrop of someone trying to make me believe they are a gangsta, pimp, playa, etc......
I listen to many different types of music. Mainly 80s-90s rock like Queensryche, Motley Crue, Metallica, Tesla, etc, or country music(from TN)Yee FKN Haw !!!!
However, I also love classical, baroque, pop, techno, and Love blues.
I will listen to most anything, but rap. However, my best friend growing up ONLY listened to rap......Go figure

Rap is shit that has been broken down into sound waves
