I don't. I don't even want to pretend I like rap for even a second :P

clearly you don't realize how elitist you come across. it's okay to not agree with my hyperbolic statement that kanye is the best. it's okay to not even like hip-hop that much as a genre but to dismiss it as wah wah "I don't like rap" or rap is crap just screams ignorant. try broadening your tastes instead of dismissing everything at first glance.

Screaming "I don't like rap"/"Rap is Crap" isn't me being ignorant.
It's an opinion. I recommend you look up the meaning behind the word, "Ignorant" before spouting it around and being harsh to others.

While we're on-topic, you can't spell "crap" without "rap" :)

somehow i knew you were going to say that.

guess what, it is "ignorant" to dismiss an entire genre like that. how about giving some reasons as to why you think "rap is crap"?

Because I don't like it. I find it loud and obnoxious. And talentless. Just my opinion, friend. No need to be harsh. Just as you've posted your likes, I'm allowed input as well.

It's simply an opinion. Don't take it personally. We're all friends here on da'temp. ;)

... Not to defend him but...because it doesn't strike him fancy?
However, saying that a genre is crap tho, I agree. I don't find any genre to be crap. It's either u like it or u don't. XD

I like rap, old school rap and some new rap but it's in opinion. I like a lot of artist and musician it's one of my favorite genres but the way people say it today makes it seem like crap. Is it not hip-hop, of course with "music" today in that genre it does not get around to people who really appreciated Rap.

I love rap as well. But I wouldn't go as far as to idolize Kanye west. He's made decent tunes, but him being one of the greatest musicians of all time... Hrrrmmmm..... Not really imo. But he has made some good tunes, I admit.

Yeah he as a person of rap gets it here and there with a good song but he is not someone to idolize like crazy. I'm mean he is being idolized on a gaming forum even with different forum sections that's just weird.

"Rap is crap" is indeed an opinion, but so is "Justin Beiber is the best singer ever" - you have to realize that just because it's an opinion doesn't mean that it's legitimate, some opinions are "crap". :)

There are good rap songs out there, lots of good hip-hop artists/rappers popped up over the years and you not liking the genre because it's "crap" is a personal preference, not objective fact.

This is not the first time I have heard someone claim a commercial rapper to be the best in the game, and probably not the last.

Commercial as in out for fame, glory, and attention. The man never stood for a thing, and never innovated a thing. As far as I see, he's another johnny come lately riding on the coat tales of those who came before him, and who most have forgotten. Then again, what's shocking? The world glorifies shallow posers does it not?

Still an opinion though, Mr. Foxi ;)

I listen to way too much Damien Rice. I know a lot of people who think he's crap. That's okay though.

>Implying any of the contemporary rappers are "true gangsta" or that underground rap songs are any good

Oh, please. The moment a musician hits it big he or she stops "representing the poor" or singing about "true life of da street" because that's not their life anymore. If you actually believe that any well-known rapper actually "represents da hood", whatever that may entail, you need a facts check - they're ri*h as f*ck and have no clue. It's all make-believe, it's been like this since rap and hip-hop became accepted music genres.
