Oh well, I guess this poll will settle it. All the people who respond to rap and hip-hop, the entire culture that it speaks to and for, will all realise that they are of course wrong, throw out thier rap CDs and go out and buy Nickleback.


or, wait...it could all be a matter of personal taste and response. It could be that rock is a giant pile of repetitive and pandering crap that happen to speak to you but sounds just as shitty to them. Maybe, just maybe, people have differing tastes and requirements for their music and if you listen to a dirrevative stream of guitar crunching you shouldn't be throwing rocks out of your glass house.

You might think you could rap, but I'd gather you'd find it harder than you think to do it well.

(I don't listen to hip-hop, I just have scope)

So we're able to be selective to make sure that the rock is good, but all of rap is crap cause some is?

Oh okay, I guess that makes it all better.

Other than a naturally formed aggregate of mineral matter constituting a significant part of the earth's crust, (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=rock) what exactly is "rock?"

And that's as far as it goes. You like rock. They (the people who like hip hop) like hip hop. Niether of you are right or wrong. Until you start making these crappy polls and decrying another pop form, then you are wrong.

i assumed my statement would be taken as an opinion. there's no need to get all butthurt about it.

I would assume my assesment would go to the author of the poll, as well as those who would make the declaration in the thread with the opinion as an example of the limit. No need to get butthurt about it...

It really depends, both Rock and Hip-Hop have high and low points, both usualy involve the lyrics :P
Anyway...do you mean Rock in general, or, say, Death Metal? Or Classical Rock? Techno?
