At my school Rap and rock popularity seem tied, What is most popular in your area? And what do you prefer yourself? I myself don't really like rap..

In My Area Most People Hear Rap....I Hate Rap!!! Rap Is A Piece Of Crap! Useless Crap! :angry: Whenever I Hear Rap I Feel Like Killing A Few Thousand Rappers!

I'd say it's about tied here, too. It's a pretty small town, so any group of music is fairly signifigant in the tie-breaking.

Hate to say it but this is a favorite thread. Sorry but please refrain from making them in the future. If you had posted a topic like What music type is popular in your area then that would have been alright but as stated now this thread is a favorite.

Oh it's pretty much tied here in NY too. I personally like rock

Haha ok, well then I guess I'll have to state my question differently next time :) Thanks anyways lol.

Rap is too popular if you ask me!
I don't understand why some people like this tasteless "music".

it's not tasteless, you're just being ignorant and over-generalizing rap without reading more into it.

lemme guess your argument, why is rap all about drugs, sex, violence, and money? It isn't, do your research.

how could you listen to someone just talking to a beat? One could easily argue that rock is all about screaming and distorted guitars.

funny, it seems like everywhere I go, online or offline, a majority of the people hate rap and provide the same exact arguments and simply ignore my side of the argument. Oh well, that's just the sad truth of today's society.

I'd have to say it's a tie where I am.

And I don't think rap is crap, just enjoy whatever music you like without disrespecting others. I mean at least we have music to listen too.

In my neighborhud the rocks rules in a small percentage, however I like it too much!!!

I feel the same way... They're all an excuse for people who can't actually sing. I mean, what do they actually hear in that crap?

And most rock is an excuse to make random sliding noises on guitars and screech incoherently. Overgeneralizing much?

I think most people around here prefer rap. All I hear when kids ride down the streets with their stereos turned up is rap.
Myself I perfer a mix of the two. I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music.

I hate rap music but it seems that no matter where you go rap music will win out...girls and wiggers alike just can't get enough of the stuff

lol

I like rap music and I'm neither a girl nor am I a wigger.

and no, rap music doesn't win out wherever you go, especially not where I live. where I live you get jumped by the rockers the second they hear you playing any rap whatsoever.

Most rap is about all those things you mentioned. Yet there are some exceptions. Those who rap about the importance of working hard to realize your dreams, and the like. However I bet many would agree that most rap, and by that I mean what is being played in the streets, clubs, on the radio, is indeed about drugs, money, etc. Now if you like rap, good for you. I'm not here to judge you. Learn to respect other people's opinions before you start criticizing and calling them ignorant. Just a thought.

Never care about what is popular and be brave enough to like what you like.

most people i know listen to rock. me too, but i also love some crossover-bands like candiria. in the past i hated rap and said stuff like several people in this thread did, but a friend of mine introduced me into some hip hop stuff that was really different and like nothing of that genre i'd heard before

I live in Columbus, so rap is about 80% of the city, the rest of Columbus is either country, rock, gay, all of thee above or their stereo was stolen enough times for them to give up >_<. And Ive been listening to everything since I was little. I must admit the newer rap is very low quality compared to the old...but I could say the same with rock too...But needless to say that is the way the music indrustry works and then we'll hit a new trend..people obsess..it dies down..even annoys...and the vicious cycle starts once more! ::dodges herds of angry peoples:: Ahem, but if you want my opionion, I've always liked rap :D You just don't shake your @$$ to a guitar solo >_< ::dodges herd of angry peoples stuff:: But who said you had to pick one kind of music and become one with it (sadly, just that happens, and far too often I might add)...well, he ain't my Mama, and if he was I wouldnt listen to his bullsmack even if he tried put me in the corner with the jaws of life! !(LOL!)....shoot...expand your horizions.

In my area it's mostly Rap, Hip Hop, Dance... anoys the shit out of me.... i prefer listening to metal metal metal..... I listen to some rap, but not all the time.

and it's ignorant comments like that that truly annoy me

jeez, didn't even provide a reason.

yay for ecclectics! i love rock AND rap/hip hop/everything else
i just enjoy good music, it's the best outlook on the whole situation. if you're tied down to particular genre then you can't appreciate all the other genuinely talented people out there

Pff Rap isnt crap. atleast rap got good beats and lyrics what does Rock/Metal got? shit like Slipknot That sucks really sucks all they do is scream like fucking retards and that they call music.

RAP mofoc!! RAP FOR ever, tupac r.i.p homie. RIP TILL THE end., although rock has its cool side, i just like soft rock :D but besides dat. RAP mofocers , gangsta style.
