Why does Rap have no creativity whatsoever?

It's basically the same beat over and over with crappy singing or rhyming

    That's what people said about Rock-n-Roll in the '50s.

    It does. I'd like to see you write a whole rap right now. The rhyming and singing isn't "crappy". I'm sure since you're calling it that, you'll have no trouble making something less crappy, right?

    I don't know... i think it at least takes some creativity to create a beat and stufff but i think the bigger question is why doesn't rap have alot of creativity ? , or why does rap suck sooo badly?

    it is creative. i don't listen to it much but if you tried to rap, it's harder than it sounds. i mean freestyling is more difficult because you've got to learn how to rhyme as quick as possible with the beat you have. i mean, i think that takes skill.

    You could say the same with Pop, Rock and Country too.

    Every genre has it's good and bad. I listen to a bit of everything :-)

  • Why are you so ignorant? I don't really like rap music but that's a ridiculous thing to say.

    Because they always rap about the same things: women, money, drugs, and violence. All rappers sound alike.

    That's not true. I may not like most rap, but it's not totally devoid of creativity.

    Tell me this isn't creative:
