Whoa, it's one thing to dislike rap, but another to accuse it of not being music.
Let's not be irrational here. Granted, anyone can come up with Lil Wayne level lyrics. However, there are excellent lyricists out there.
As a lyricist myself, I take offense :/
It's a skill I've worked on for years. Good rap is musical poetry. It's not easy to come up with clever word plays and multi syllable rhymes and still tell a story.
