Old country music yes (Willie Nelson, patsy cline, Johnny Cash, hank Williams)

New country music God no. It's some of the worst crap ever created. Though modern rap and pop punk are right behind it...

The majority of country sucks. A lot of rap sucks, but there's a decent amount of good stuff. Pop punk is about 50/50.

So, TC is wrong.

yes but only because Billy Strings is considered "country" by some and hes the best thing in music right now. there are a bunch of other bluegrass musicians doing cool stuff like Sierra Hull, The Punch Brothers (and everything Chris Thile touches tbh), Bela Flek, and others. i don't really like much rap at all and dont like any pop punk, so country wins.

also Tyler Childers and Sturgil Simpson are pretty rad

Thats a dumb statement.

Trad country and alt country are some of my favourite genres but the country most people are familiar with in 2021 is shit. Literal shit.

I listen to rap for flows and/or topic content. Nothing about the Country flows or topic content interest me. Or I'm just ignorant and haven't looked for the country that isn't about beer, women, trucks and...fuckin your sister? Neh. The 4th one is being American or something. What an accomplishment. I'd rather non delusional people talk about surviving in America rather than blindly supporting it.

For me, it's Rap > Country > Pop punk though Rap and Country are close and can switch depending on my mood.

The radio "country" should really be called southern pop.

Agreed. Pop Punk is about the only punk I don't mind, with Ramones, Dead Kennedy's and The Clash as exceptions. And rap, while I'm far past the whole rap is crap phase, I still ain't the biggest fan of it personally. Some artists I like, but I have to be in a mood to actually listen to rap outside of a party.

For country there's not many outside the genre who top the likes of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, and even George Strait.

I been on pills on planes. Which is also more hip hop. The first time I went on a plane I snuck unprescribed stuff in my bag and I didn't even look up how much they search for stuff >_>. It was fine, bit that doesn't make me any less of an idiot for that one.

Old country music (Cash) is pretty good. There is some good country music today, but it's not what people who listen to country listen to lol.

Rap music is pretty bad. Rapping itself uses voice like a percussion instrument. There is nothing wrong with that. The problem is that lyrics matter in rapping, thus the rapping is treated like a solo. It's as if Rap is full of an overabundance of drum solos, missing interesting basslines and completely devoid of melody. It's as if someone went to a piano and started slamming one key over and over and over. Because of this, rap music now often is mixed with general hip hop so the song goes

hip hop-->rapping-->hip hop-->rapping. The rapper is some big-name dude.

Punk is essentially just rock music with an emphasis on instrumentation and drums. The singer often has a very very limited range. It's kind of halfway between rap and rock imo

But I pretty much never come back when I ssy that >_>. Were you the one who posted all the political hip hop songs in the other topic?

Which is good and I definitely agree. We were on the same side in the other topic. And I eluded to my ignorance in my original post here. I'm stuck between being open minded and having fun in the ignorance of musical preference warfare.

Rap and country are pretty similar really

Cowboys used to sing about their tragic life, and then people wanted to be just like them

Gangsters used to rap about their tragic life, and then people wanted to be just like them

in reality you dont want to be a cowboy or a gangster

This is moronic.

All people have different tastes. Nothing is better than the other.

People are going to prefer what they can relate too. If you dont like hip-hop thats fine, but that doesnt make it bad.

Do you expect a kid from Flatbush to relate to Kenny Chesney? Do you expect a farm boy in the rural country to relate to Nas?

Sorry TC but you didnt think this through at all. Bad take.

(The majority of) Country music is fake. People singing about driving an 18-wheeler or working in a factory or on a farm when they haven't worked a day in their lives.

At least rappers at least sometimes actually sell dope and fuck bitches. Garth Brooks has never ridden in a rodeo and quite possibly has never even ridden a horse.
