Rap is better than metal. It's not even a contest. Rap has and always will be more popular.
>>
Both are not music.
>>
>>122439907
nobody ever accused normalfags of having any taste
>>
>>122439907
It's not that rap is more popular, it's that it's more real, increasingly more relatable to people around the world, and actually requires more heart and skill than playing a guitar.
>>
>>122439907
Two genres where every song sounds the same, who cares if one sounds better than the other?
>>
Metal isn't supposed to be popular. If it was popular, I wouldn't want to listen to it.
>>
>>122439907
popular isn't equal to good

>>122440366
well both can be relatable and real. Black sabbath is a good example as they have been relatable to the working class people. Just different ways of expression

>and actually requires more heart and skill than playing a guitar.
being black doesn't take heart, and mumbling certainly doesn't take skill.

Metal is good music for sampling to find ways to make better rap, but within itself very uninspired music

All music exists so that it can be sampled for rap.
>>
>>122445921
yet with that, rap fails to be music itself. irony hurts.
>>
>>122445968
Rap is the logical conclusion of music. Why would I want to hear a white boy sing on heavy metal guitar when I can have Dave Free throw some 808s and Kendrick Lamar break down Pulitzer Prize winning rhyme schemes

At some point you’ll have to stop inaccurately guessing my race and address my argument at its core, otherwise I’ll remain just as entertained as to whichever projecting insults you can levy against me because people don’t like your shitty music.
>>
>>122446153
yeah, stealing shit and whatnot, that's cool. also, metal isn't meant to be liked by the masses, so you already have no idea what you're even talking about. "metal" liked by normalfags is worthless ersatz garbage fixated solely on aesthetic.

I have a lot of empathy for hiphop rn. When I look at its state it reminds me a lot of metal right before it almost died for good. The same feel of a once rebellious genre been put through the corpo grinder where stale shit gets marketed as the next big thing that actually has no traction beside in the PR texts trying to astroturd its soullessness . Sadly, in modern times, this corpo zombi state can and has gone on much longer than back then when it happened to metal. I hope hiphop fags can find the same undying autism to keep their genre on life support till it heals. Will be much harder for you guys tho. Late stage "popularity" is a terminal disease.

no one in this thread can accurately define what music is

lol the day i see a rapper play in front of 2 million people get back to me

That's easy.
Music is stuff I like. Not music is stuff you like. We can't like the same things.

For real. Rap, specifically in the modern day is atrocious and is for NPC ghetto white trash and/or degenerate blacks. Just what it is.
>>
>>122439907
Yeah, but metal doesn't have a bunch of rap people in it, so it wins.

muh good goy award lmfao

Eminem once performed in front of 80k people and I believe that was the all-time record for a rap show.

Because half the “metal” bands were putting out glam ballads
>>
>>122445118
That's a weak ass lyrical rap song. And the same could be leveled against your claim in a different direction. Name a rap song that's more musically complex than any rock artist.. you can't be rappers aren't musicians. They sample all their work.

What about rap metal?

I just think from a lyrical perspective metal has a hard time competing with rap, you’re not going to find many metal songs written as intelligently or as much humor as
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSLlIPmBJaU

for instance, obviously rappers resonate more with people who haven’t watched lord of the rings recently

different kind of skill but I dont think tech death metal comes anywhere close to nigger mumble and I'm a fan of hip hop. Shit like this takes forever to nail properly.

which has more soul: "Body-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody

Body-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody (ah, ah, ah ah)
Ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody-ody
Body crazy, curvy, wavy, big titties, lil' waist (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Body crazy, curvy, wavy, big titties, lil' waist (mwah)

Human reason counters all ideas of soul society
My life is just a fragment
Of the universe and all, there must be more than I can see"
