People have no taste, what are you gonna do? Make concentration camps for people who like rap until rap is dead?
Because I would so totally do that.
Reputation: 17Why do some of you people think lil wayne is garbage? Honestly the dude has some nice lyrics.
"Man, I got Summer hating on me cause I'm hotter than the sun
Got Spring hating on me cause I ain't never sprung
Win-ter hating on me cause I'm colder than ya'll
And I would never, I would never, I would never Fall
I'm being hated by the seasons
So f**k ya'll who hating for no reason!
The title Lil' Wayne proclaims himself as is false. Hes a good rapper overall, but he isn't the best. What makes him only a 'good' rapper is that he says whatever comes to mind on a track. Like it was mentioned earlier, he never writes sh*t down. Better rappers take the time to write down what they say, and edit it to their wants. I admit, he has a lot of good metaphors and similes, but when it comes down to it; hes just an average rapper than knows how to grab the audiences attention.
Personally, I don't know why Rap is popular. Some people listen to it cause they want to be cool, others listen to it cause they understand and actually appreciate it. Its more than just bitches, money, and cars; That's just brag Rap. There's also serious Rap, then theres gun talk Rap. Some people enjoy how rappers brag about their Louis bags, Gucci glasses, money, bling, all that. Others like it cause what some of these rappers say make them go "oh sh*t, that was hot" or "damnnn", you know.
I, myself, love Rap. Not because I want to be cool, but just because I enjoy the type of music.
What it all comes down to is..

Reputation: 26I don't know about you guys but most of the kids at my school make fun of songs like Crank That Soulja Boy.
I like Lupe 'cause he keeps it real and raps about important stuff, stuff that makes sense. It ain't all gangster shit.
Please try to take me seriously while reading this post, by ignoring the fact that my username is GrandHustle. Thank you.
I like some rap but most i just hate with a passion. I like Gorrilas (Is that rap? I think it's rock/rap) And Run DMC

I used to think like that too...until I realized I was just an idiot feeling sorry for myself.
Now, I listen to Bob Marley when I'm "depressed" (as "depressed" as I get)...I find that listening to positive music is a better cheer up than hearing someone else cry about their problems. But that is me.
So what? People like what they like.
Rap is popular because people enjoy it simple as that and just because people say it's useless and talks about nothing but picking up girl or something doesn't mean it's inferior to any other genre.
I could say all your music is crap but the point is not what I think but what you think.
I remember listening to a tribe called quest now lol
Reputation: 26Oh, and Fort Minor's good too. Another rapper who's songs aren't all about hoes, bitches, money, drugs, and violence.
