No, rap is stupidity in the fact that not only does it not require any musical talent, but it requires an extreme lack of intelligence in order to not be able to properly pronounce words, and to not be able to phrase sentences coherently.

I'm not a fan of rap myself but I don't have any problem with people who listen to it. I'm not a fan of them talking about killing people and f****** bitches, but it does take some amount of musical ability to make anything that sounds appealing to someone. About not phrasing sentences correctly I don't think music needs to be phrased correctly or spelled properly. Pink Floyd uses words that don't even exist and Ozzy can't even say a full sentence.

hmmm. who determines what is the "proper way to pronounce" words? or what is musical talent? sterotypes and racism of a western white male culture comes to mind. don't generalize "rap". all the "bling bling, sexist record company puppets are not what makes up rap. try listening to dead prez, public enemy, common, run dmc, mof def.... then read some bell hooks, audre loure... you seem very set in western culture and ideals. step out of the box. i am a strong educated black feminist womym and i see this shit all the time. trust me, what you are saying is not new nor suprising. it is ignorance. period. i would tell you to talk to some of your black friends about this but i doubt that you have any with an attidude like this.

i am a strong educated black feminist womym
You are a black woman? You are a rarity on this site.
Can I ask a question? Why are all black women I come into contact with in public either rude, loud, obnoxious, or bitchy? I swear I am not trying to offend you at all....I just have noticed that.

its like "ask a black dude on the dave chappelle show." cuz they are all pissed the fuck off. lol i want to thank you for openly asking this[if you were being serious] there should be an open safe place for discussion like this. but make sure to think and ask yourself to look deeper. is this some sterotype....?
i can't tell you why certain people act one way or another no matter what their race or sex is, but what i can say is that not every black women behaves the same. it is a terrible generalition. its what media displays as "black". why are the words rude, loud, obnoxious, or bitchy used? they are all negative. its all a matter of perception. do you only see these qualities when looking at black womyn? why are we thinking this way etc....

There is a recent commercial with a rocker type looking kind of guy with his girl sitting on the hood of his car eating mcdonalds while he is thinking back when he was a kid eating it.
Well, some might consider this the minority now. But still, there's at least one

Just because a women is a feminist doesn't mean she's an overbearing feminazi. Most feminists are really laid back, and simply want women to be treated equally to men, and want to have freedom from sociatal constraints men have placed on them. When I think feminazi, I think of the stereotypical media feminist.

yeah, since ozzy and black sabbath are the epitome of grammar and proper pronunciation, let alone musical talent.
shut up you stupid head banger nigger.
making dumb generalizations makes you appear generally dumb.
