andrew- with the honor and respect for anyone else comment i mean show me rap other than will smith or any of the religious subsections (since their stuff must necessarily be positive) which revolves around something other than die die die die f/u f/u f/u my hoes my hoes my hoes. country has a following the world over without on the whole having to resort to the antics modern rap has. i don't like most techno or rock but i admit most of that is pretty decent respectable stuff. mind you, this statement excludes punk, heavy metal, et cetera. then of course we have classical and opera in which case there isn't a snowball's chance in hell you are gonna be able to claim that is the same as rap. i do not think rap in and of itself is by definition bad, rather just the garbage spewing from the mouths of modern rappers as well as the rappers themselves. i have a good example and i would love for you to be able to prove me wrong, here goes:
in the entire history of the county music awards and the mtv video music awards list for me the number of times the police have had to show up as a result of stupid antics and then list and compare that to the number of times the cops have had to show up as a result of stupid antics at the source hip hop awards.
