For the people who say "OMGZ YOU CAN'T SPELL TEH CRAP WITHOUT TEH RAP!!!111", don't.

I guess if you've truly listened to all rap, it would be fine. But most people who proclaim this think rap means T-Pain (no), Akon (no), and Soulja Boyyyy (HUGE no).

Go back and listen to Run-DMC. Beastie Boys.

The people who crack me up the most are the ones who "hate rap" and praise bands like Linkin Park. *headdesk*

Listen to Somewhere I Belong. What is Mike Shinoda doing? THAT'S RIGHT, HE'S RAPPING!

So go past mainstream rappers today, and listen to other rap. Then you can judge it.

Go back and listen to Run-DMC. Beastie Boys. K-os. Gorillaz.

Yeah, I knew you would call me out on that. 428899.gif I'm kinda surprised that you didn't call me out on K-os though.

Anyway, after I made that post I realized that both of them are not rap. *edits*

Also, the comment wasn't directed at you terminoob. It was directed at ignorant people who dislike rap because of Soulja Boy, T-Pain, whatever...

Eh, I don't listen to the K-os, so I wouldn't know.

I'm not a fan either. I do respect the talent of rappers, but I would much rather listen to a song with a good melody, instrumentation, etc.

I agree.

Why? IMO, rap is awesome! You can't just start rapping. You need air and vocals...428899.gif

Rap: Rhythm and poetry. Yes, at first, not everyone can do it. But come now; at the pace rap is going, it's child's play. Write a poem that doesn't need to make sense at all, put it to a beat, and say it really fast.

Other music: Actually need a drumbeat, a bassline, guitar riffs, a catchy tune so people will actually LISTEN to your music, good lyrics (again, so people will actually LISTEN to your music)... ect.

That's what I think.
