Prove me wrong.
Rap is one of the least innovative and experimental genres. Not that it's bad, just that it's rare for any rapper to try to push the boundaries. Even "underground" rappers seem to do similar things as everyone else.
for 99% of hip hop songs you could skip to anywhere in the track and it would be at the same part
same beat
same melody
same flow
drives me fucking nuts
I can't prove you wrong.
Hip-hop and rap are nothing more than aggressive and yet monotone lyrics, set to simplistic beats and melodies. They take very little skill or hard work to create and are subsequently enjoyed by those with no appreciation of skill or hard work.
Also, hip-hop and rap tend to be something of a catalyst for violent acts committed by these unintelligent, uninspired, unskilled and lazy people (mostly men). Ironically, were one to resort to violence in an attempt to remove said-problem (I can think of a few who'd be first to go), this would negate the argument, entirely. So, the rest of us just put up with hip-hop, rap and their followers.
There are so many wondrous things we've learned we can do with our voices, in unison, with other hard-working people who've been practicing until their fingers bleed, and there are STILL those who listen to people talking over a generic melody and beat? Don't you KNOW this?
>tl;dr: rap and hip-hop are crap.
It's easy to write "gon smash up your place bam bam down shut up da case"
or some shit
But it's difficult to write something intelligent and enriching.

i think you're right

Considering the fact that rap in itself isn't even a genre of music, I'd say you're immediately wrong.
That's a really meaningless statement. That you'd ask for proof of a metric that you just made up without thinking through is just stupidity.
Are you trying to ask us to rec you experimental hip hop? Someone your speed might enjoy a band called Death Grips.

The interpretation of sounds and influences is innovative. The production techniques have been innovative. The new rhyme schemes created have been innovative

Cant especially now but hip hop/rap whatever was never ment to be big its a ghetto art it should stay in the ghetto for better or worse
niggs needlessly killed each other in the 80s, niggs needlessly kill each other now.
