Rap can be tossed into the sea and drown for all I care. Eminem will be the only rap artist I'll indeed listen to, his songs and lyrics are funny. But... ROCK ALL THE WAY!!! Metal, Goth, Goth metal, death metal, doom metal alternate, punk, christian punk, chrstian metal, christian goth metal. Pop sucks expect Savage Garden.

Fifty-cent is cool too - come to think about it, he's on Shady records so one can't expect anything less.

 

[HisJavajunkie]

Looks like We are going solo on this one! But I have to say Rock, too!

My thing tho is whatever has the best message and musical background. And usually Rock does that (in my opinion).

I take offence to that!

I like both rap AND rock! I think both of them have their benefits. As you point out, rock is a much better genre for singing and getting good melodies out with nice riffs in the background. However, rap has a lot more potential for communicating a LOT of a message. Sometimes you get wonderful combinations of both like in Rage Against the Machine.

I actually don't believe in just one genre... I think all genres are appropriate at different times depending on the mood and purpose.

If you check out my music page at the following link, you will see that I do both rock and rap (although, I AM one of those people who can't sing very well!
