Hmm..no, I don't think I seemed offended. Nor was I.
I simply pointed out how those accusations were wrong. I defend all my prejudices. With facts.
Bigot: a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.
You can be a bigot and defend such intolerance with facts. Doesn't change the fact that it is bigotry, just means you think it is justified.
Like rap. Yes, it sucks. Why? Not because it is mostly performed by blacks. Who cares about that. It the same music was done by wiggers like Eminem it would still blow. LOL. The skin color of the no-talent performers is of little consequence.
If we are talking personal preference, I would agree, as I do not like most rap. But to use Eminem as an example, his use of iambic pentameter makes it obvious that it isn't talentless. We may not like it, but to try to pretend it is somehow therefore objectively bad is just nonsense.
Proof rap sucks....
If HAD to take some guy off the street with little or no musical talent and make him a music star, what genre would you immerse him in?
Pop.
Rap of course. This is a no-brainer. Ya don't have to play an instrument, or have a good voice since you can just talk your lyrics.
That actually describes most music genres. You don't have to play an instrument to become a vocalist in general, and you don't have to have a good singing voice with modern sound editing technology. Rap is hardly unique in its lack of talent.
