RAP noise

Rap is NOT music in any way, under any circumstance. Rap barely has any of the essential parts needed to even begin to create a song. I will only call them songs because I have to call them something besides noises. Most rap songs don't have pitched singing, in fact, a lot of them have monotoned synthesized voices that sound extremely ear wrenching. Almost every rap song has the same beat and rhythm. I know, can't you say almost all genres of music have beats that are similar to each other? Yes, but in rap it is different because it's the same beat throughout the entire song and the rhythm never changes. Most of it's extremely vulgar and demeaning not only towards women but they also tend to promote violence and racism, and encourage stupid behaviors and bad actions. Almost every rap song is talking about the same thing as well, a girl (shorty) being in a venue (club) dancing (getting low) and usually it has something sexual in it. I know you also can't say words properly all of the time in music, but I don't think rap ever says a word the way it's supposed to be said. They always say flo instead of floor for example, and they do things like that for almost every word they say. I could go on and on and on for days on how it's not music and it's a plague that's killing the intelligence of our nation's youth and also ruining their definition of Music but I'm not going to. I'll finish by saying this, rap should never be listened to by anybody, and it should most certainly not be taken seriously by anybody who claims to be a musician.
