I know that theres more people on this forum that hates rap than likes it, but I've always liked it. Tupac was my favorite growing up, but my taste changes more frequently now. I can listen to the more hood stuff like jeezy or the more hip hop music. I normally prefer hip hop but it depends on my day... I mean I even went to a Lil Jon n the East Side Boyz concert. I like a lot of different kinds
I think I like Rap more than rock or any other genre because I think rap is more positive... now before I get killed for saying that.. think about it, rappers talk about getting money, being the best..having the hottest chick.. its all about image (i misspelled image with imagine the first time, and imagine may of been better, haha).. But really rap is positive... All I do is win win win.. thats positive.. of course it talks about guns and drugs ect.. but it's always about being the best.... Rock has a lot of negative, girls leaving ya.. no one understands me.. i mean of course not every song but if we are playing the sterotypes, Rap much more positive...
That's not to say I don't have my issues with rap. My pet peeve with rappers are ones that talk about guns ALLL the time. cough Jadakiss cough Man who cares what gun you have, if you use it as much as you say you would be in prison, and even if not, murder aint cool... so I understand why people would hate it.. but regardless, There's WAYYY more to rap/hiphop than that.... It's an art. It's poetry. It can be deep. It's mood alterning. it's good music IMO...One of my favorite things about rap today is it's really about being witty and the most creative punch lines..It's making references and metaphors. Its truly word play.. entertaining stuff. its not "just" gangsta rap anymore...
Even I get tired of talks of guns n drugs, and recently I heard a christain rap song with this dude calling out the biggest names in rap. For those that don't know, it's a very common tatic to boast publicity in rap by calling someone out... but it was that that lead me to his other songs...... Call me crazy but I am starting to really enjoy Christian rap... and I'm not really a religous person... I am not a religous person at all. I wouldn't say this outloud really, but I just believe in doing good things and being the best person I can be... no higher power involved in that..
Still, I enjoy the religious rap I've heard so far. obviously, with any rapper theres different styles and sounds and whatnot, so I've definitely heard ones I didn't care for, but generally speaking. It's very refreshing... Give it a try... I am curious is anyone else that listens to rap, may like it .... Right now the main guy im listening to is Bizzle. He does have the diss song calling on RickRoss and Jayz, but his other songs are even better... I'll share more if anyone interested as I discover them
But even if you aren't a religious person, give christain rap a try...
