People who hate Hip Hop Music

[tscards]

I don't know -- If I had to choose between rap/hip hop or real twangy country & could only listen to one type all of the time, I'd unfortunately have to go with hip hop, even with my disgust over a lot of lyrics & attitude going on with it.

Give me rock, classic rock, metal, hair metal, christian rock (third day, audio adrenaline, pillar, pod...actually very good stuff & good for my children to listen to) or some pop any day.

My in depth analysis: 99% of the time, I don't like rap or hip hop. The songs do nothing for me. Every once in a while, I hear one I like. Living in Atlanta, I hear it a lot....at sporting events. So I do hear a wide variety. Generally, just don't enjoy it.

That is all.

My girlfriend flips out on me when I change the station away from hip hop and rap. Im a rock fan myself but will listen to some rap/hip hop but I wouldnt go looking for it. Im not a big fan of going to clubs and I just dont get excited when I hear the latest rap/hip hop tunes being played. Does nothing for me.

Hypothetical: take a kid straight from the projects, who has heard pretty much only hip hop. Mostly crappy hip hop, maybe a little of the 'good stuff' here and there. All he knows about Rock music is what he hears on the radio - Nickelback, Panic at the Disco, Disturbed, etc etc. If you're a big metal buff, or indie rock buff, etc, you're going to have a hard time saying "no, no, that stuff is crappy, but *this* stuff is good!"

That's why it's so hard to get someone into hiphop. T-Pain? Bad. The Roots? Good.

Music is much more personal for me.....it moves me, or it doesn't....I like it, or I don't. Rap/hip hop just doesn't "do it" for me. Some of it I find ok, but most of it is like nails on a chalkboard...

My 40 year old white boss did the Souljah dance today at work. He wasn't that bad actually.

Believe it or not I've been listening to hip hop, and I like alot of it. Not even sure if it's politically correct to tell you my favorite song, but it's about people in Paris.

African American Gentlemen In Paris? That's a great track. Good pre-workout song.
