i think it is unfair to say a certain kind of music sucks, i m not a big fan of rap but there are some great albums by artists like outkast, dr.dre and snoop.i agree there is too much rap out there these days with very low quality, my personal opinion is that people who attack rap music are rascist who miss their white idols. i do miss the whole white rock god with long hair image, but what the heck, let the black community enjoy idols. i remember going to a rock concert long time back with a black friend, he felt very uneasy in the concert because he couldnt relate to all the pseudo satanism or headbanging etc. The white guys with long hair were cool then, now the black rap star is the cool guy with white boys trying to be them.
