There's a sliver of hiphop that I like a lot, for example

Digable Planets
Gorillaz
N.E.R.D. era Pharrell Williams



As the great bank robber James Brown once said, "You don't know music, you don't know how to use it. All you know is a boom boom, boom boom boom boom".

It has form, harmony, rhythm and melody and lyrics

It's pretty light on the melody and harmony though. I agree it's music but I struggle with why one would marginalize 40% of what constitutes music in favor of the rest. I prefer music that has all elements in roughly equal parts.

Also, I don't really "get" rap, probably because I'm not exactly the target demographic that rap artists are aiming for. I think if I understood the artistic thought that goes into it, it would be a lot more meaningful to me.

TALKIN ALL THAT JAZZ

Very fitting.

There are 2 sides to Hip Hop. If you have a brain and aren't brainwashed by the media and Clear Channel, you know this.

Rap is music, but very few musicians are in Rap.

anything that can be done, can be done well. Rakim, Nas, etc are as good or better than any musicians that have ever lived.

There are some shitty rap songs, but if you actually listen to and understand the lyrics it is by far the best music IMO. JMO though.
