Why Do Some People Think Rap Is Just Talking Over A Beat?

Incase you didn't know singing is a form of speech. So if rap is just talking over a beat, then so is singing. Also, if you think rap is just talking to a beat then why wouldn't you just get a record deal and make millions of dollars? I know why, because you can't rap. But you can talk lol.

Update:

Do some of you have the education of a first grader? Huh? Rap itself is not violent. Just because some take it and use it for violent topics doesn't make rap violent. Queen said on Boheim Rhapsody something about putting a gun to someone's head and pulling the trigger now he's dead. So I guess that makes Rock violent huh? No it doesn't. Think before you type.

    you will desire to understand that maximum of in the present day's Rap it fairly is performed on television is rubbish. human beings like Gangstarr, vast L, Mobb Deep, The infamous B.I.G., A.D.O.R., etc. all had expertise. This Lil Wayne sh­it fairly is purely that. Sh­it. frequently, in spite of if it fairly is a few thing that the radio or MTV play, it fairly is crap. i grew to become into stunned to work out them play Yonkers, yet i does not call Tyler a genius. he's pleasing, that's some distance extra effective than i will say for Lil Wayne and such. For the human beings asserting that all and sundry Rap sucks and is over-commercialized mainstream rubbish, they'd desire to take heed to some Immortal technique, Tech N9ne and the various different artists I listed additionally. i'm commonly a Heavy steel fan yet rejoice with very lots of Hip-Hop music.

    I know there is a lot more to Rap

    for example telling people how to murder, commit crimes, gangs, drugs, violence... you know all the good things Children need to learn at a young age so they can ruin their lives when they are older.
