Rap. In the genres beginning, the rapping was probably about something worth listening to but now...not so much. The rap I've heard  is degrading, vulgar, and inapproitate overall. The cursing, the speaking about drugs and bragging about his (Insert swear some people use to describe women.) and talking casually about gangs and guns. How did mankind came to this? Instead of the popular music consiting of music and lyrics with a meaning its just repitive lyrics and eardrum shattering "beats" as the kids say. I honestly believe that this sort of music is  negativtly influencing teenagers and the younger community. In my school, people throw around degradtory slurs, disrepecting girls and teachers, and openly speaking of sex and drugs. Rap just makes me feel ill.

I very much dislike rap. My younger brother listens to rap and what he plays the lyrics just make me sick.

All my life they let me know<br /> How far I would not go<br /> But inside the beast still grows<br /> Waiting, chewing through the ropes<br /> Who are you to change this world?<br /> Silly boy<br /> No one needs to hear your words<br /> Let it go<br /> Carnivore, carnivore<br /> Won't you come digest me?<br /> Take away everything I am<br /> Bring it to an end

I totally agree, rap is garbage
