I do but I'm in my 30s so my definition of rap and Hip Hop in general is completely different than contemporary rap.

MF DOOM is my GOAT but Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, Pharcyde, Jeru the Damaja and R.A. the Rugged Man are among my favorites.

Yep. I always recommend Run The Jewels as an introduction to Hip-Hop/Rap. Then let the recommendations do the work. Killer Mike and EL-P are monsters on the mic.

West coast and East Coast (besides Miami and Atlanta) rap is fucking boring and highly pretentious.

I'm 30 and I listen to all that stuff less for more modern stuff. I go back once in awhile, but the majority of the stuff I listen to is from the last 5 or so years. Stuff I never thought I'd like is a large chunk of it. Even got an autotuned mumble rapper in the mix. You don't gotta be stuck as an old head :p. It's all good either way tho. You're only a sucker if you're listening to music you don't like for alternative reasons, like fitting in. I actually fit in way less with my friends because of my dramatic shift in preference to more popular-ish modern stuff.

No. Don't dislike it or anything, it's just not something I've ever really listened to much beyond when other people I've been around have had it playing. I've enjoyed a few songs but there's little chance I could even remember anything about most of them.

I can feel that, I like both old and new rap but Im very picky when it comes to new stuff

Very picky

but everyone has their own opinions ya know? I think Recovery is Eminems best album, but some people would eat me alive for saying that.

btw thanks for sharing

No. Nothing to do with the music itself, but I can't stand the vocals and general lyrical content. I find it obnoxious and for me it's the kinda music I feel mad when having to listen to it.

So you're ignorant to the genre and judge it as a whole off a couple subgenres. Got it.

"Man. I hate rock because it's just a bunch of whiney voices over obnoxious noises."

This is you in a different life. Or maybe even your current one. I dunno what other full genres you reduce to subgenres you don't like.

ERB is the only rap i've ever liked

Nothing against any of the musicians, or the artform, its just singing is my favorite part of music, and rapping doesn't sound as good to me.

I don't care much for rap. It's poetry with a beat, a more lyrics-focused music than most genres, and I'm not good at paying attention to the lyrics anyway. In one instance, I heard a rap song that had a sample from a song so great, that it reduced the rapping itself into contemptuous, tacked-on garbage. Early rap (late 70's to mid-late 80's) is good, though, attributable to its disco roots and upbeat nature.

Ive given the genre a chance multiple times and I think it sounds it all sounds like shit. Sorry that you're offended over my music tastes. Lmao.

Yeah, it's the genre I listen to the most. For the most part I only really like a lot of the 90's East Coast stuff from people like AZ, Nas, Biggie, Jay Z, Mob Deep, Big L, Wu Tang and it's members, ect. But I'll listen to anything lyrical.

old head, although there's some good newer stuff that pops up. Old head's kind of a weird term in general: I was listening to Eminem and Doom and Busdriver and immortal Technique 20 years ago and I listen to the new stuff they put out now, and they're only old fairly recently.

I think a lot of the popular mumble rap is horribly lazy, in the same way that 2000s rock bands all had this horrible emo-tinged trash. That tekashi 69 shit can stay right the fuck off my lawn i aint givin it half a chance

Ah. You're part of the mind that someone can't call out dumb shit without it being because they're offended. I mean, I could easily say you don't like rap cause it offends you. See how easy and dumb that is? It's just a way for you not to be open to being wrong. You implying that hip hop only has a limited range of lyrical content just makes you look out of touch in 2020. This isn't 2000, back when your type of ignorance was wide spread and most people would blindly agree. People are actual put on and realize hip hop is insanely diverse.

"Gave it multiple tries", like we don't know what that implies when paired with your previous statements lol. Foh

Rap is offensive to me because that's how shit it is lol. At the end of the day i listen to my ears and my ears tell me I hate tap and hip hop. What am going to do? Force myself to like it?
I don't know why you're so triggered over this. The topic asked a simple question and I answered it. Instead of having a laid back conversation and debate you got aggressive and offended.

I don't know how you can like so much music and then just explicitly not like rap, which is quite broad, but obviously you don't have to like it

For those who find rap to be offensive and obnoxious, give this one a try :)

He definitely doesn't. My hang up was solely him claiming it had limited lyrical content. I can't think of a topic a hip hop song doesn't cover somewhere. The first song I posted is about mental health. That's probably the most relatable thing on the planet.
