Is it jealousy over success that explains why rock/metal fans hate rap.?
this is the follow up to my first question. i got many answers but many of them seemed to miss the mark . Some people argued that one of the major reasons for this antagonistic attitude toward rap was it’s violence, but that dosen’t compute. This is the same society in which the Sopranos (a show about italian Drug-dealers and pimps) is a top rated series and in which VIOLENT movies like Saw and Hostel are box office hits. You can’t tell me this is an anti-violent culture. Second, these fans seem to judge rap by what is in the mainstream but the rock/metal purists are the very first to lead you to some lesser known underground bands that they hold as their favorite. Yet when it comes to rap everything becomes about what is on the radio. Finally, people don’t seem to realize that melody does not define music. Melody is only one of the three theoretical aspects of music. Rhythm is another. Consequently those that say rap is not music are technically incorrect…it is indeed music.
No, definitely not, and it’s not that rap isn’t music per se it’s just not music to most of our ears. You see what defines music is our personal preference, not some silly official definition. Though I should mention that my uncle happens to like both kinds of music so it’s definitely not even all of us who don’t like rap.
