There is only one Rap song you will ever find on the great "SeventiesPopRock" channel, and it's Blondies "Rapture." Blondie was one very bad girl in her day. If anyone could produce a Rap song correctly and pull it off, it was "Blondie." And what came after Blondie, is what was known as "Ghetto Hip Hop and Rap music" beginning with M.C. Hammer, along with all the other Hip Hop artists unto this present day. This type of music was a complete abomination to both "me," and all of the great black Pop, Soul, and R+B artists like Radio, Ray Parker Jr., Teddy Pendergrass, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, Earth Wind and Fire, Hot Chocolate, Heatwave, 5th Dimension, War, Ohio Players, Rose Royce, Emotions, Silver Convention, and many of the other great black disco legends of the 1970s.

"The comments below..."
I am a melody man first and foremost. I must detect the musical melody first in a song, then comes the vocalist abilities to perform the song at various vocal ranges and pitches. And after that, comes the song lyrics. Much of Hip Hop and Rap lacked proper melody, harmonies, and "music and song written" abilities. In fact, very few even understand what many of these Hip Hop artists are saying in their music. The greatest, and possibly only good Rap song ever, was produced by the Queen and true creator of Rap, "Blondie." And how could anyone who has understood the downright soulful, bluesy, and gritty sounds of Elton John ever take to modern day Hip Hop and Rap? For as it was written, "Elton John I loved, but Hip Hop and Rap I hated." |

Plus, rap was created long before Blondie and many hip hop songs utilize melody and harmony (as that is an essential musical component). Not all rap and hip hop is the same, it's a varied art form. As a fan of it, a fair share of today's stuff is garbage, but the older and not so older classics speak for themselves.

It takes a lot of talent to write lyrics well with all the various poetic techniques while sending a message. As you know, in all forms of music there are some good performers and some bad. Some rappers are hard to understand, but most (at least for me) is how well I listen to it. I can respect all the things you said in what you like about music, and I love and know about many forms of it as well. We just have different styles and opinions. What I'm trying to guard against is the generalization of rappers and their fans as uneducated degenerates, same as if somebody stereotyped your generation as a bunch of dinosaurs. If you don't like it, OK.

You know that not all (or even most) rap and hip hop represent violence and acting like an idiot, right? There's some real lyrical talents out there.

So why are there so many antisimitic people in the world? Could it be that many of the Jewish People have been successful through 80 hour work weeks? Could it be that the Jewish people put education first, and plan for their childrens long term college tuitions? Might it have something to do with the Jewish peoples success in music, the arts, and other forms of entertainment? Could it be that many of us non Jews put "pleasure seeking" ahead of sacrifice, hard work, and "crucifying the flesh" until important future goals are met?
