Rap is not music. Childish, pretentious rhyming with sampling and drum machines and your posse grunting ebonics in the background is not music.
There is no lack of understanding involved. Quite the contrary. I am like the little kid in the fable The Emperor's New Clothes. Being pure of mind and spirit, I see that rap is not the gilded robes but is a figment of mass hypnosis of those who were afraid to criticize it for it's lack of recognizable talent
