Topic	Ben Shapiro: rap isn't real music
furb 09/17/19 7:11:22 PM #173:	Anteaterking posted... Even if the "classical" literature, there are plenty of works written for percussion that don't have "meaningful" melody or harmony. And even if you take a narrow view of melody, the defense of Ben that "he's talking about the rap IN the music not being music, the rap ITSELF isn't music" is just like "He isn't wrong, he's just making a completely idiotic point". Consider Finnegan's Wake. Basically nonsense arranged to look like it means something. It's still literature, extremely high literature. It breaks the mold of what literature is, but it is still literature. --- You know how fads are. Today it's brains, tomorrow, pierced tongues. Then the next day, pierced brains. -Jane Lane <cite>furb posted [p:927581592] in Ben Shapir...
