Rap is king

Lowest common denominator.

Democracy doesn't apply to music. Popularity =/= importance

Isn't the lowest common denominator shitty country music?
Also don't most retards who reject modern music end up being elitist metal/classic rock listeners?

Also don't most non music savvy people listen to fucking Taylor Swift or whatever the fuck?

Ooga Booga kill whitey

>>73251666

Look at the 2010s chart and it is mostly rap albums.

There is no coincidence here anon.

Autist.

technically speaking, anyone can make a rap album. You don't need to know theory, how to read music, how to play an instrument, or even how to sing. All you need to know is how to make sicc beats, which is done for you if you get popular enough, and how to write lyrics about how much money you have, how much pussy you slay, how often you do drugs, and how much you have been oppressed by whites and the system. In terms of artistic value, rap has very little.

>its actually 20
learn to count

>>73251496
Yeah, either rap or electronic music more generally.

The way I see it is that it is the rock of our generation, just like how Jazz/Blues was the Rock of the generation before Rock.

Done for you if you chose not to partake in it. Pretty every significant rapper does (kanye, kendrick, danny, stefan, chance, etc)

>write lyrics about how much money you have, how much pussy you slay, how often you do drugs, and how much you have been oppressed by whites and the system

This is the dadcore degenerate's strawman of rap music

Classical = quill & parchment
Jazz = telephone
Funk = carrier pigeon
Rock = spectrum 48k
Pop = laptop
Hip hop = Nokia 3310
Bleeps = smartphone

Pointing out shitty arguments is autistic now?
You made this board what it is today

>>73251496
no way in 2007 rap was the most important genre.
that thing started in 2012

>>73251918
No, using Latin on 4chan is autistic.

>>73251925
you would have pitched a fit when CLT came into a thread then

>>73251496
You are of course right OP but what do you expect ? /mu/ is filled with rockists hoping that their diying genre will somehow make a comeback and be relevant again.
