Coldplay aren't new though-and I can't argue with the MTV generation, because I am one unfortunately...

Rap. whats the point?

I could ask the same question about rock.

Spose thats fair enough. but rock has tune and a rythm and you can sing along to it. Rap is kinda hard to get into. you either love it or hate it i think.

Thats avoiding the fact rap has a point to it just like rock does. See public enemy or NWA for an example of this, they're getting across a message that serves a purpose and please explain how rap doesn't have a tune or rhythm and how you can't sing along to it.

ok. so you can sing along to rap. i guess im being narrow minded. i persoanlly couldnt sing alongs to it, possibly because im tone deaf when it comes to singing rap... reguardless, its the same thing with rock.
agree to disagree?

Rap IS the most important form of music, regardless whether you love it or hate it.

Uh no.

It is no more, or less important than any other kind of music.
I would hope that artists like GZA have more meaning than some make-up toting, girl pant wearing, wrist slitting hawthorne heights song

I have to agree that the new "gansta rap" is pretty annoying. However, the older stuff, like Public Enemy, NWA, De La Sol, is good
