I am sorry but, I feel rap is just bad poetry put to music.

Basically, rap is profanity claiming to be a music style--and its practitioners are all chops.

That generalization is simply not accurate. There are a lot of prolific rappers who don't blurt out profanity in every sentence.

yeah, like Will Smith... he doesn't have much, if any swearing in his songs..

let's see if any more are named to prove steven right.

I never said they were free of swearing..

yes, there is a lot of rap that has a tonne of swearing but there are some that don't swear as much..

also....

Hip hop music is a music genre typically consisting of a rhythmic vocal style called rap which is accompanied with backing beats. The term rap music is often used synonymously with hip hop music.

Overrated, and a chop!

I don't hate all rap music, I like some if it doesn't have profanity.
