Even when it's good, Hip Hop just rapes my ears...and not in a good way like R&R.

I've tried...God knows I've tried...I just don't get it. It's my biggest cultural blind spot.

I'd put money in a campaign to give away free guitars in black neighborhoods. Give me Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry and Jimi Hendrix back, please.

I'm tempted to create another account just so I can "like" this twice.

It's really hard for me to respect someone who considers themselves a musical artist and a genius when they can't sing or play an instrument so I agree.

I'm not at all trying to discredit or marginalize it as an art form, I'm pleading total ignorance.

As douchey as he is, I recognize that Kanye is probably good at what he does, it's just not for me.

I love it when racist hate on something just because they are racist. Now that is deep,,,, deeply instilled in the mind from previous racist to not like something they know nothing about or care to try to understand because their narrow mind will not let them try or like anything that was not handed down by generations.

Don't get mad just b/c some lyrics are too deep for you. Just shows ignorance imo.

For example:

I put piss stains on private planes 'cause its MY jet
Money ain't **** that why my Rottweilers drink Moet
Diamond beget bracelets for my lovers
Playa, I use Cristal' to lubricate rubbers

Hating Rap = RACIST!!!! :uzi:

Hating other genre of real music = A matter of taste

Not to mention the "music" itself preaches hate, bigotry, violence, objectifying women, and killing cops. Yet if you pause to say "that is really not what I consider music to be" then you're a raging racist.

Insane music in an insane world. And don't even get me started on wiggers.

Kanye is a jackass no doubt. I'm pretty sure he says the stuff he says to get a reaction and to keep his name in the press, and of course, because he's an insane egomaniac.

He's not a rock star, but he is upper echelon in his genre, like him or not.

I always found him to be a mediocre rapper and a brilliant producer. He's another douchebag entertainer, but he doesn't get my blood boiling like he does with others.

Well he's managed to get himself called a "jackass" by the President of the United States and that's a pretty exclusive club.

How much does u cost to get a Kanye concert on Netflix? He is awful, I think he kisses beyonces *** more than jay z. I would rather pay money to see a tupac hologram rather than Kanye in concert. He is absolutely awful!

It costes me $20 but I put that on daddy's Netflix bill under "miscellaneous charges" because im so nice to him and he shares my account for 3.99 per month *plus tax, handling and miscellaneous charges!
