I can't stand AMERICAN IDLE,or those dance shows (what kinda job will you get as a dancer? I mean-short of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers...what? A back up dancer for Lady Gag Gag?),reality shows, most popular music nowadays is very generic, liverwurst,polka music,political ads on tv, calamari,tripe,oysters or clams. And okra-a slimy food if there ever was one.

I don't care for persons claiming RAP is not music.  Music is not so highbrow that anyone would be disallowed participation in any form.

I agree. I don't like most rap simply because, well, I guess I don't get most of it. Big mystery, I'm a 44-year-old white guy. Go figure. But I don't hate it. I consider it like any other form of music. Even with styles I don't get into, I can usually find some artist within the form whose work I like or appreciate in some way. I don't like most rap, yet I do like Deltron 3030 and some stuff Outkast does, and I'm sure if I put my mind to it I could find other examples. I also don't care for most of what passes for country music these days, but I do find exceptions.

So I guess I don't care for the notion that a singular form or style of music is impossible to appreciate on some level, or is "not music."

I third this motion. I'm a firm follower of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Yes, I rip on Justin Bieber, Twilight and other easy targets, simply because they're easy targets. At the end of it all, if somebody finds some beauty, enjoyment, or meaning in any form of entertainment or media, whether they are the artist or audience, than it is art. I'm not into rap or most country among other things, but they are still music.

Odds are whoever started that was dead from a gunshot wound or a crack overdose a long time ago.

Sagging pants was started in the inner city. Belts were prohibited in prison, and so sagging pants was adopted as a sort of badge of honor amongst gangs. Essentially, if your pants sagged, it meant you had been to prison and were therefore a tough guy. Because of the chic of the rapper with the tough inner-city background, it started showing up as early as the late 80's ala groups like N.W.A. I grew up in Los Angeles and I remember being aware of this emerging trend before it became mainstream. I remember starting to see it on MTV around 1990 or so and thinking "Oh dear, now it's hitting the big time." Around that time the wave of "South Central" movies started hitting, Boyz in the Hood, Menace II Society, etc., and that was it. Gang chic, including sagging pants, became what I thought was going to be a passing fad but here, over 30 years later, it's still being adopted.

Sigh.

    AHD- After reading your post, I realized that I was in error. There is some rap I enjoy, particularly Will Smith and others of the earlier days of the genre.

     The thing is, when I think of rap today, what comes to mind is the negative, hateful, mysogynistic anti-life roil that comes blasting out of people's sound systems. Also, to be accurate, I don't consider death or satanic metal to be music, either.

      With both, I want to approach the individual, and say, "Okay.....you're angry, you hate this, you hate that....what else can you do?"

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

I hear ya. I took it that AHD was just kind of making a general point. I hear you about the death metal thing too. When I was in high school I liked hardcore music like that, I think because I just liked aggressive music and it served as a form of catharsis for me. I still listen to some hard music from time to time just for that little release that it gives me. To a certain extent I think it can be healthy, but when it becomes the focal point of what you do, it is kind of like you say, "what else can you do?"
