I do not consider rap music i mean anyone can take a little program and do a drum track over and over again and slap some words on it....wow omg!! rap is just gay all the way around. all the lyrics are about is stuff like: Money, Drugs, Girls, The Getto, and about how bad there life are and stuff. but then you see them in these huge houses and with lots and lots of money!! its just stupid!
It's so sad to find people on SOMETHING called : "ultimate-GUITAR", and lets say that again GUITAR!, ultimate-FREAKIN GUITAR, then they say that rap is actually music. Just because MTV tells you that it's music, doesn't mean it's music. And if they'r making millions, that doesn't mean anything but people's thought of what's "art" is really being distorted, just like what they think of what's "beautiful", what's "precious"...etc.
Rap is not music, and that's a theory, not a hater comment.
Because it's not only that you can do it on a computer, but i can't believe a rap song is music, when it's composed of one instrument line, ( If even existing ), that's looped forever, with a bass drum, clap, and MONOTONIC singing in most cases.

As aforementioned its organized sounds and silences.
No matter how much you hate it, raps quite beautiful and can be very deep. Need I say that Tupac has more emotion and feel for his music then most of the 80s hair bands had. Not just Tupac either, there are a good number of other rappers that I feel superior to a lot of rockstars.
And the fact of the matter is that rap music is not easy to compose. There is plenty of effort put into mixing a line and creating melodies. A producer has to go through many steps in layering every piece of synth, drums, bass, guitar, and any other instrument. Most other genres of music's writings consist of a lot less layers and tends to be easier to compose. Plus there are some rappers who have some of the deepest lyrics and still manage to fit them into three syllable rhymes. Not too many songwriters can manage this successfully.
So please reevaluate your viewpoints on this case and don't let your ignorance consume you.
