I don't really care because as with all music you can just listen to an artist of a genre that you like, so idrc is Post Malone doesn't care about lyrics
on the other hand I think it's disrespectful and disingenuous for him to say that about a genre of music that is notoriously rooted in in-depth lyrics
Think about it this way, rap gets a bad rep by non-rap listeners for being all braggadocios devoid content when it comes to the mainstream anyway, imagine if all the big artists come out saying dumb s--- like this -

Dumb as h--- and I won't be able to take anything he says seriously now.
I wonder how much hip hop he's actually listened to if he really feels that way.Buddha, BroadStBully2, Mudkip and 4 others like this. -

Rap isn't my first choice if I wanna cry but it definitely can evoke that even if it is in the minority BUT ANYWAY POST MALONE IS A f---ing CACRodamon, Sqrt Sqrt, Ordinary Joel and 1 other person like this. -

In some cases I still feel this way tbh. The actual sound of the song (which is made by dj/producers) is more important to me than the rapper -ofc it makes a difference who raps but still-Alpha, Ordinary Joel and Enigma like this. -

i'm fairly sure by hip hop all he meant was trap, and i think he would be totally right about that. barely anything (or at least anything i know of) is emotional in trap, and the whole "emo" hip hop thing that isn't emo in any way and consists of regular trap with occasional psuedo-conscious lines and hamfisted lines about suicide doesn't mean anythingasvdawg, CSA and Ordinary Joel like this. -

Post Malone’s perspective on hip-hop is under fire. The rapper-singer has caused an uproar of criticism after saying that hip-hop is not for those who are “looking for lyrics” or “real s---.”
Speaking with Poland’s NewOnce, White Iverson discussed his stance on rap. “If you’re looking for lyrics, if you’re looking to cry, if you’re looking to think about life, don’t listen to hip-hop,” he said. “There’s great hip-hop songs where they talk about life and they spit that real s---, but right now, there’s not a lot of people talking about s---.
“Whenever I want to cry,” he continued, “whenever I want to sit down and have a nice cry, I’ll listen to some Bob Dylan. But whenever I’m trying to have a good time and stay in a positive mood, I listen to hip-hop because it’s fun. I think hip-hop is important because it brings people together in a beautiful, happy way. Everybody’s happy.”
