(idk if arete has lots of nonwhite posters)
saw some white kids listening to rap IRL and a white girl posting some rap she was listening to
seemed like the white people of a few decades ago thought rap to not be music or be inferior music
do u feel this way or has rap been also made by white people you like or what do people think about rap?
I remember rock music was thought to be "demonic". Rock came from jazz roots, and jazz was also thought to be " degenerate" and to have come from african roots. Rap I think morphed from rock.
But what's wrong with the musical forms? One problem seems to be the steady beat or rhythm. We know that like classical music simply doesn't sound the same, yet a lot of objections haven't been raised towards classical as a musical form.
So what do you think of rap?
Track 2: "I am going to commit gun crime! I don't obey the law!"
I used to listen to rap music to be well-rounded musically but now I can't ignore that the content of rap is anti-Western culture. When I hear someone listening to it I feel like they are being tricked or conditioned to like degeneracy and lawlessness.
