Why do people listen to disgusting rap music?

[Anonymous]

Don't get me wrong, there is some GREAT rap music. But some of it is just DISGUSTING. This girl I like send me this song and the lyrics are:

"Do you like the way I flick my tongue or nah?
You can ride my face until you're drippin' cum
Can you lick the tip then throat the dick or nah?
Can you let me stretch that pussy out or nah?
I'm not the type to call you back tomorrow
But the way you wrappin 'round me is a prob
Ain't nobody tryna save ya
Baby, get that paper
Probably got a lot of other bitches owe you favors
Pussy so good, I had to save that shit for later
Took her to the kitchen, fucked her right there on the table
She repping XO to the death, I'm tryna make these bitches sweat
I'm tryna keep that pussy wet, I'm tryna fuck her and her friends"

I mean seriously why in music? I just think it's stupid. I still like her though!

[ChasingSeagulls]

I don't quite understand it either, but I gues to each their own, right? I mean, while we judge their choice music, they judge ours.
Now, do I think that some forms of music are better than others? Yes. But music is a form of creative expression and, as long as the artist isn't harming anyone in the process, they should be able to express themselves in their own way and share it with like-minded people (no matter how baffling their form of expression may be).

[joesheks]

It goes to lowest common denominator — it’s about as creative as finger painting but we are taught to today that to differentiate is racist or prejudicial

[CheeseLoveWhiz]

Maybe the same reason people watch p*rn or read erotic novels?
I get what you mean. They sex sells lol It isn't just rap though like "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails , "Drunk In Love" by Beyonce "I Touch Myself " by the Divinyls "Like a Prayer" by Maddona ; All are top 40 hits.
Before you say none of those songs are as graphic, it's essentially the same thing without innuendo lol However most music these days in the past 20 years has been explicitly sexual.

[AnimeDreama]

Rap isn't music. It's p*rno in the form of lyrics and a shitty beat.

[icantwait]

Oh what's up bad ass answer! I love how there's one person down voting all the people that don't like this song xD

[AnimeDreama]

haha... Rappers sound like dying animals with nails in their throats. None of them have any talent in my opinion. They know the only way to sell is to cater to egos and sexual desires.

[iUnderachieve]

I can see why you say this but personally I disagree, some rappers actually have stories to tell that isn't about sex at all. It's a lot of the mainstream stuff that really gives it a bad name also..

[icantwait]

@iUnderachieve
I think that would be more along hip hop, soul, r&b, or some mixture of genres my friend. Rap is very crude and vulgar for the most part. Of course there are some exceptions though, all depends on the sub genre.

Here's an example www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEyXHTQ_xV8&app=desktop

Rap is often just rhyming illiterate words together at a very basic level of human consciousness. Though some of it is really exquisite.

I apologize in advance for blowing up your answer animedreama

[AnimeDreama]

@icantwait What do you mean blowing up?

[icantwait]

I mean I keep replying on your answer lol. I know that can be annoying, especially when debating someone else

[AnimeDreama]

I don't mind it. It makes me happy that my answer gets so much attention haha. I live for those notifications. haha I am a weirdo haha

[icantwait]

I completely understand that ^_^

You're not a weirdo, you are good peoples (;

Speaking your mind will get you the good and the ugly. When the ugly comes know that more will appreciate then those that don't. Just felt like I needed to say that for future pretense.

Good stuff though (:

[AnimeDreama]

haha thanks :D

[aficionado]

I'm a huge music freak, so I enjoy and respect all genres of music EXCEPT rap. I just despise rap. In fact, I don't find any 'music' in rap at all. Always sounds like angry guys venting out their frustration using the worst possible expletives.
No offense to those who like rap, but I wouldn't listen to that unless my life depended on it. RAP = CRAP

[Anonymous]

I sometimes wonder if the people that like that garbage are even real. It's like, "Are you an actual person or are you just some mindless, robot slave of society?"

I just can't imagine listening to, or liking that kind of music, finding such lyrics acceptable or purposeful, and finding it all pleasing to the ears. I don't see it, at all...

[RandomStudent]

Some rap can be good like Earl Sweatshirt, Tyler the Creator, Childish Gambino, ect, but I to never understand this "sweg rap" stuff. I like rap with beautiful chords, with poetic lyrics, but whatever, l'm not going to look down upon others because they have different taste.

[DodgersGM]

Well, radio music is crap... unfortunately that's nothing new. And rap took a pretty ugly turn with all of the gangster rap of the nineties, which took the mainstream far from the roots.

Look underground and there's some great, GREAT stuff out there. True art.

[icantwait]

It's not all like that but that's seriously dirty stuff and kinda fucked up honestly. Sounds like something to make women WANT to get used by guys.

But I might think the girl is trying to suggest something to you if she knows what the lyrics are about

[CasaNorba]

its what society has forced into our brains. its funny how back in high school that was all i listened to till the age of 22. now i'm 27 and i feel so ashamed looking back at myself in those days. its like, was i really listening to this bullshit all that time?

[icantwait]

Rap has evolved into something very basic these days. There was a time it had a lot of great meaning behind it but that was looong ago

[CasaNorba]

yea before the year 2001

[icantwait]

Yes!!! That's exactly right!!! I'm very impressed actually glad someone else remembers the good stuff and when

[CasaNorba]

it was not that hard to noticed. but that was when all the rappers became money hungry clowns and the dirty south started taking over

[SleepyChan]

The lyrics are very misogynistic and degrading to women. That's the worst part. I have no respect for the artist or people to listen to that.

[justbeinghonest]

EEWWWWW I hate that! I have no respect for people that like or associate with people that enjoy that type of """"music""""

[hottchristity]

Yes its disgusting lyrics but she into that genre of music and music is music and by the way rock and punk music has sexual shit too and metal and country also all genres have explicit shit too... /:

[hottchristity]

I enjoyed the underground hardcore rap when use to scream lyrics ):

[AnimeDreama]

Yes, you are right, but rap almost always talks about sex, sex, drugs, sex, whores, sex, drugs, and penises

[hottchristity]

True but I love when rap music wasn't about sex and whores and money but it mainly depends on the record label because some labels don't allow that shit but rap has no rules like other genres... ):

[CuriousBlackGirl]

If it's to raunchy for you get the clean version. Idk. Just Don't judge people who listen to it because if it's on the radio chances are a good amount of people like it.

[Asker]

I don't judge people by it buts it's just so disgusting

[CuriousBlackGirl]

I'm just saying that so you don't stop talking to a good girl because of her taste in music. Rap isn't the only genre that has disgusting lyrics.

[icantwait]

Rap is far from the only genre that has disgusting lyrics for sure. I miss the days of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony though. Thought rap was much better then

[northernligths]

wake up wake, Its the first of the Month, get up get up and cash your check and common...

[CuriousBlackGirl]

Yeah I so remember that !

[Creole_Flavor]

I think everyone's taste in music is different and there really isn't one explanation for why, but I definitely won't judge a person by what or who they choose to listen to because it does not define a person.

[dymphnak]

Because they can? Music is so subjective, you can't possibly be serious about this question. Your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's, but guess what so is hers.

[joesheks]

Yes and finger painting is equal to da Vinci or Renoir, right?

[WhiteSteve]

Meh, its just words. Words won't hurt anyone. Those lyrics are straight Mt.-Vesuvius-Goodness-Gracious-Great-Balls-of-Fire flames doe...

[AnimeDreama]

"Words won't hurt anyone"

Tell that to the kids who commit suicide because of words.

[WhiteSteve]

Because of words in rap songs?

[Asker]

Words are powerful. There's a reason we don't let 6 year olds listen to this. HAHA

[WhiteSteve]

You guys are going in some odd directions with this. Not sure where suicide and 6 year olds got involved...

[iUnderachieve]

Guess it's because you said "words won't hurt anyone" and now it's getting a little off topic..

[Asker]

You say "its just words. Words won't hurt anyone". I don't believe that. I think words are very powerful and can have and effect on people. Music and words can make you happy, sad, mad, excited, and a lot more. That's why I said "that's why we don't let 6 year olds listen" because if that's all they here, they're gonna grow up with that thinking and motives in their head. I don't know if that makes sense.

[WhiteSteve]

Fair enough. I was raised on the old "sticks and stones" rule, but I guess that doesn't fly with people in the PC Era. Not for nothing, I had 2 Live Crew's Nasty As They Wanna Be when I was like 10, and that was literally banned and ruled legally obscene by a district court in Florida until it was overturned in an appeal. Long story short, I turned out fine.

[kheserthorpe]

So the girl you like sent you this song, and your reaction was to come here and complain about it.

i'm glad that you still like her.

Be careful though. It sounds like she might like sex -_-

[Asker]

Unlike most men, I'm not just into her for sex. I find this people who listen to this music is trashy and immature.

[kheserthorpe]

Most men aren't just into sex. Sex is one of the things they're into. She was trying to send you a message.

[MissConfused93]

Stupid? Maybe. But catchy and raunchy? Yes. That's not always a bad thing.

I love the weeknd but this song is too much for me personally. Can't be too critical though, I'm guilty as charged for liking "pussy money weed" lyrics.

[GoldCobra]

hahaha this is what i thought of when i read your question

[GoldCobra]

Skip to 2:40 hahaha so truueee

[Asker]

LMAO!! Dude you made MY LAST NIGHT

[WhiteSteve]

Hahaha, I thought of this too. Chris Rock is the shit.

[Asker]

*MADE MY NIGHT

[GoldCobra]

"Smack her with the dick! Smack her with the dick!"

[Asker]

Could you find one that works on mobile? I want to send it to her XD

[Asker]

Check out this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcfGC1aVY6A

[justbeinghonest]

It works on mobile. I just watched it from mine.

[GoldCobra]

"Smack her with the dick! Smack her with the dick!" It's stuck in my head. I love his dance too

[Asker]

FUCK HER IN THE EYE FUCK HER IN THE EYE

[MyUsernameRules]

I don't see anything wrong with the lyrics. It's just music. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. Anyways I don't know this song so I'll go listen to it on Youtube.

[rthomas43]

Probably because the tune is catchy?
I've never heard the song in question though.

[Asker]

The song is "Ty Dolla $ign - Or Nah ft. The Weeknd & Wiz Khalifa "

I seriously can not get over how beautiful your beard is. You make Jesus jealous.

[rthomas43]

Lol that was an epic compliment!
Thank you :)

[youcantknowmee]

I stopped listening to rap because of these reasons. It's either about sex, money, or girls.

[RandomStudent]

Not all rap.

[northernligths]

I second that... not all rap. Be informed. Thats like saying I dont like all green people because 5 green people beat me up and stole my lunch money. Contrary to your believe all green people are not the same.

[youcantknowmee]

lol okay but Most rap. 9/10 it's about one or all of these things. Majority of rap songs are about these things

[steveguitar]

I don't understand rap, especially shit like that.

Is she trying to send you a message maybe? Does she 'want' you?

[Asker]

I doubt it lol she's christian and I am too. Her personality and her music don't match AT ALL lol

[AshBrown]

Because in the society now, not only is it not seen as if it was OK, but in fact, people think it's cool to be foul mouthed. It disgusts me too. Best is to stay away from such company.

[Anonymous]

I like a lot of rap music. I actually love it.
But stuff like that kills me. I hate that song so much. I have a few friends that play it in front of me and I'm like nooooope I can't stand it. Trashy as hell, gross, no value to it.
