Racism is still alive through haters of rap

The media is controlled by white business giants, rap has always been looked at negatively in the media due to it being predominantly black, and that opinion splashes onto the individuals who hate rap. Example: Eminem calls himself a god, it's just a figurative expression. Kanye West calls himself a god, it's sacrilegious. In a similar sense, it's like how rock was smeared as anarchy and music for criminals by conservatives 70 years ago. This was because rock began with blacks, as it was influenced from jazz and blues.

      Hates rap=racism? I personally hate rap so much because the rap songs have turned to shit nowadays. The old ones from 2004 and stuff were cool and I'd still listen to it but today rap is all about bitches, hoes, money, drinking, shooting, and Critisism against everything I do. It makes no sense anymore it's not even music. If their music wasn't always talking shit about "-blam!-ing my bitch" and "making cash money" and "n.igga n.igga n.igga n.igga" then maybe I would get back into it again...

      Rap sucks though. All of it, but this is clearly just my opinion. It's just not the type of music for me. Nothing to do with race.

      • Eminem and Kanye both suck in my opinion. Kanye had 1 album with 1 song on it I liked. Besides the 9mm song but that was many artists so I don't give credit to only Kanye. Also your as ignorant as the people who say women can't get high ranking jobs without extra peer pressure and judgment. Keep driving the wedge in the races by blaming the rich white guys. Don't forget the rich black guys sitting next to those white media conglomerates. It's funny how black people can also hate rap. How they can see that some of the most popular rap is nothing but -blam!- this -blam!- that -blam!- this bitch shoot that bitch. The biggest thing that pisses me off is how Kanye is being considered rap. Rap hasn't truly existed for years. The shit coming out now is hip hop. Rap (rhythm and poetry) well that's pretty -blam!-ing vague don't you think. Metal has rhythm and poetry. Jazz has rhythm and poetry. Rock, hip hop classical. All music is for the most part rhythm and poetry. So all music is considered rap by one of your earlier statements. Now before you respond telling me I'm racist or some shit like you have been everyone else that doesn't agree with you let me tell you something. I'm a Technician. I listen to HIP HOP as much as I do metal or rock. I prefer independent musicians like Tech N9ne over the media whores like Kanye and Eminem.

        • So if I hate something, then I am racist? Good argument, for a 12 year old.

            • No black magicians either. White guy makes something disappear, everyone applauds. Black guy makes something disappear, he gets arrested.

              Or it's being kept alive by actual racists that publicly offend others. But sure, "It's the corporations, man."

            • No, we hate rap because it glorifies the rаре and sexual objectification of women to an extreme, supports the continuation of racism against whites, glorifies gang violence and drug use and the usage and selling of narcotics

              • Are you serious??? Rap was only looked down upon cause it used to give bad messages. Rappers now just talk about money and bitches.

                  I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me On board, I'm the captain, so climb aboard We'll search for tomorrow on every shore And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try to carry on I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory Some happy, some sad I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had We live happily forever, so the story goes But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold But we'll try best that we can to carry on A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said They said come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies Singing come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me

                  • Almost all rap sucks. I don't care if you are black, white, purple, or invisible I will not like your rap "music." Honestly the only one I can stand is the tiny amount of rap in Thousand Foot Krutch's music.
