Rap Music Rant

I *hate* (c)rap music.
First, lets analyse what music is. Straight from Dictionary.com:
- The art of arranging sounds in time so as to produce a continuous, unified, and evocative composition, as through melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre.
- Vocal or instrumental sounds possessing a degree of melody, harmony, or rhythm.
-
- A musical composition.
- The written or printed score for such a composition.
- Such scores considered as a group: We keep our music in a stack near the piano.
- A musical accompaniment.
- A particular category or kind of music.
- An aesthetically pleasing or harmonious sound or combination of sounds: the music of the wind in the pines
As you can see, the words highlighted in bold are what rap music doesn’t contain. Therefore by definition, rap music is not music.
So, you people who I often have conversations about this “rap music” you are obviously stupid, or cant read. The “lyrics” rap music are rather worrying as well as hilarious. Lets have a look shall we?
Times and days, brothers is on their own, some nights blown
Some of them method to blow chrome, a common home
From the P-Now, when P-O keep a tab on your style
Seein if your piss is foul
And daily thoughts on theme of madness on the block
Watchin to who you sell rocks, his mouth talk
And glocks rocks your motherfuckin cradle
As shit gets fatal and tombstones get labelled
A nigga live for the ice or makin G’s off the dice
And too many pimps and hoes, this is ’98 life
And cribs is gettin infiltrated from Peru
And cops is gettin bust and left in the blood pool
The city sense be hard to tame, junkies on the block shootin heron
And ‘cane in their vain, who’s to blame?
……
What. The. Fuck? As you read that, firstly try to understand it, I so far have understood that, they like to blow air onto metal, watching people take a piss, selling rocks, and… I’m not even going to bother. So far that makes *no* sense what so ever. maybe its because they speak a different language or something that normal people cant understand? I don’t know.
Rap is retards attempting poetry.
