I never bash anyone for their taste in music. If you like music in any form, it's a good thing. I never liked opera or disco, but both disco and opera are better than nothing at all in most cases. Maybe :D

As far as Disco vs. the rock, Hip hop, RAP etc., nothing to do with race.BUT, much to do with class within people of all races such as Lou Rawls, and that dissapeared.Replaced by street thugs that should be exterminated like street rats. And that applies to all thugs of all races. Thugs you will also gave your day as Disco did, except that if you are lucky to survive your children will at you with utter disgust because you are less than animals.

Interesting enough, R&B and RAP are the most listen to music genres today. RAP Music has achieved international, multi national acceptance more than any other music form in existence. You have more nationalities Rapping than you do Rock. Although Black people created the original Rock music, (Little Richard), Rock during the 70s and 80s and less in the 90s and now turned into a racially motivated culture. By the way, I hate RAP music. But it's the facts weather you like it or not.

Hip hop and rock both have international success, and no, I don't believe you are correct that hip hop is bigger than rock, there's too much evidence against that. It's pretty equal in America, but in Europe (except maybe Germany), Canada, and Japan rock is still noticeably more popular. I don't mind a lot of hip hop, as long as it has substance and meaning (KRS-One), but it lacks the power and variability rock and metal has. But, the modern mainstream of both sucks balls, go underground.

Please don't lump the hip-hop "culture" all together in that boat. I can personally say that in the hip-hop culture, I can't think of any sagging pants I've seen. Unfortunately, all you ever hear and see are the things played on the radio and television. Sad. And, I know a lot of hip-hop culture would agree with you about a demolition night for that. (DJ+ B-boy/girl + MCs + Graffiti + Knowledge) = Hip-Hop Culture
Hip-hop cultre ≠ Rap
As a matter of fact, Hip-Hop Cultre > Rap

Peace & Much Love
