Jan 31, 2016 lets be real nobody listens to lyrics, they just listen to rap for melody's. Rock has way better melodies and u not hearing about black on black crimes when u hear the music. Everyone already knows deep down rock is better but just listens to rap to look cool in front of their black friends
Jan 31, 2016 I agree with your statement about Rock being better than rap.. that's obvious.. but saying no one listens to the lyrics in hip-hop (maybe not these days for the most part) is what I was disagreeing on NO one listens to Trap music for the lyrics most of the time, just the production and the way the song is executed, but "real hip-hop" fans listen for lyrics again, though... I agree with Rock > Rap in general
Jan 31, 2016 I can't say one is better than the other, I like them both for what they are. No point in trying to pin one against the other, two completely different genres.
Jan 31, 2016 The only black friend I had hates rap with impunity other than Tech N9ne & ICP. He loved metal though, and got me into Burzum. Varg makes dope a--- music. But I ain't about dat corpse paint life. That said Rock is ofc a lot better.
Jan 31, 2016 if that's what your definition is..... I was thinking more like.. Blu, Fashawn, Oddisee, Jeremiah Jae... folks like that
Jan 31, 2016 oh god, one of my favorite songs of all time above I grew up on all this s---, I venture into rap myself.
Jan 31, 2016 theres like 3 rappers right now that have good lyrics, 90% u just listen for the melodiees
