| Rap Is Terrible. Rock/metal Is Awesome. |
| I, personally, cannot stand rap.... Rock is amazing. Linkin Park. Metallica. Rise Against. The Offspring. Plain White T's. Slipknot. Underoath.
You guys get my point. So debate that rock is better than gay rap. |

I think that's 90% true. I don't really dig metal, but rock, absolutely! Along with punk. It's
awesome, rap is so annoying these days. I honestly try to give it a listen because my friend listens
to it, but I get so freakin annoyed with it. |

classic rock man |

I like a little bit of everything and that definitely includes some rock and metal and rap. But I
have to admit much of rap or hip hop is tripe. You either have formulaic versions which really
don't differ dramatically from each other or you have heavy sampling from other music genres or you
have the basic badass gansta horn dog approach whereas frankly a majority of those "artists" are
pretty much posers. That's not to say other genres of music aren't guilty of the same, but it seems
to me rap is a whole lot of borrowed packaging instead of skill with instruments or voices. |

Rap is just a lower grade of hip hop...hip hop tries to talk about things that matter to our society
and lives where as rap, or rappers, talk about money, violence, drugs, and women...i'm not saying
that i don't like rap, cause i do, but it is definitely not better then any other genre/.....if
anything they are profiting from causing violence and causing subjection to women. |

For the most part, I find rap appalling. Not just the lyrics, but how can people find this...music?
I'm also not too in favor of metal. Classic Rock (Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, Def Leopard) is good, but
I'm not a fan of Metallica, Slipknot, etc.
I find that enjoyable music is opera. Christian hymns. Alternative songs, like Hallelujah by Leonard
Cohen. Stuff like that. |

Do you mean mainsteam rap music because all rap music is not bad as you say. Also it should not be
all rap music is bad but is mainsteam rap music is bad which it is because the rap music you met be
talking about is the rap music you see on TV |

That's your personal preference. |

You personally cannot stand it - fine, but don't label a whole genre that you know little about such
as gay or terrible. There is good forms of every style of music just as there are bad ones. Don't
limit yourself to just one style of music or you will miss out on some brilliant stuff. Eclectic is
the only way to be. |

I'm open to most music including rap, rock and metal therefore I cannot rank them. In addition
every1 has a different music taste. |

Rap is awesome, that's the reason why it was made in the first place. It's hard to rap, so it's more
interesting than Rock/Metal. Even some Rock songs include raping you know... And sometimes rap can
be easy...
Yo yo was sup
This is da boy singing the debate rap just to top it up
Definitely R-r-r-ap is way...
Better than Rock so just don't sway
and go the Hip hop rap way.
Heh, See how cool rap can be?

No. Many of the bands you listed have a punk kid taste. And rap & hip hop, though it is not my
style, is not terrible. |

I like some of both types of music mentioned. I have always loved rock and metal....since I was a
teenager. I've been to many metal concerts and grew up listening to it so metal brings back
memories of my teen years. Over the past several years, I have developed some appreciation for
certain rap/hip hop music. I like the bass when I'm cleaning or walking the dog...don't know
totally what it is, but it just seems to get me going. Mainly, I like eminem and 50 cent, although
the lyrics are a bit offensive much of the time, so it isn't something I listen to in my car with
the windows down or around my kids, although from what I can tell, some of the stuff they listen to
is horrible as far as the lyrics are concerned. At 16, my oldest daughter is not too young, but I
would like to hear her listen to more wholesome music. I'm sure my parents thought the same when I
was playing the violent femmes...My music taste is all over the place. That's why I voted on this
side. Different music appeals to different people. In addition to those mentioned, I like some
mainstream country (Taylor Swift for example), classical, alternative, pop among other genres that I
don't even know the classification for. |

Music taste is generally cultural so your opinions are subjective at best. Most people listen to
music they grew up with based on their cultural and/or racial background in general. Crossovers do
exist but for the most part you can pretty much guess what anyone listens to especially if they are
White, Black, or hispanic. Its funny when there is a popular white rapper, you will find a lot of
whites with their CD. If there is a popular black rocker, you will find a lot of Blacks admitting
they have the groups CD. For example: The Black rock band, Living Color. Humans are so
predictable. |

Neither one is better than the other one. It's all a matter of taste. As a music major, they both
offend my senses. |
