The Rap vs. Techno Debate

One thing I have never understood about music is the entire rap genre. And most people that like rap are really into it and don't listen to anything else

But what most "Rappers" hate most is Techno

I cannot comprehend this thinking. When you strip all the lyrics from any rap song it instantly becomes their most hated thing in the world Techno

As some one who digs anything over 120bpm with a moving line (check out below).

Who agrees, disagrees, or just plain has another opinion?

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

Because the music is the least important thing in rap. The heart and soul of rap is the spoken word. Stripping that away is like ripping the essence of the song away.

Rap is not about the "music" much (except for holding a good beat). Much like country music, the heart is in the story and feelings from the words and not the music.

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

If the story and feelings from the words is "Move b*tch, get out the way, get out the way b*tch", then I don't want any part of it.

Couple of corrections. You don't want Flo or Kool getting ticked off if they happen to be scoping out the scape site and see their names misspelled.

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

Oh, I forgot every bit of rap was of that low quality.

It cannot compare to quality like "I wanna hold your hand" of course :P

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

I think that Rap is more of a thing that people listen to because they think it is cool, not because they like it. Don't get mad at me, I'm saying some people, not all. If The Killers are considered Techno, then I love Techno. But I think Techno is not considered cool like Rap is. This is from school age experience.

I love birdies and butterflies and rainbows and unicorns and glitter.

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

Lol.....

I guess that was the only reason people listened to rock 'n roll.
I guess that was the only reason people listened to country.

People listen to rap because they like it. There are posers of course, there always are. But just like all the people seeing and paying to see Transformers 2, people listen to rap. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

Listen to what you want.

Re: The Rap vs. Techno Debate

Lol, no. I don't like Rap personally, though I understand it's cultural appeal. Same with country music.

Not liking a style of music does not equal it being bad nor does it mean you don't "get" it.

I don't care for the Beatles much either, but I "get" them.
