      Music theory is a science (and yeah I've taken lessons for years) . Where the fault in the statement is, is in relation to rap. There is ALWAYS melody, therefore there is music. In every single sound ever there is music. Music is everything. Don't let stupid people like ben influence your thoughts on various sciences, aka music theory. It is a science, but the guy talking about it just didn't know what he was talking about, lol.

Yeah if you’re from a nice suburban family it may not influence you but kids in the inner city will follow whatever trend these rappers push out. NYC had a massive increase of homicide because of this drill BS. Just look at these inner city kids they dress however rappers dress. So it’s not far fetched to believe it has a negative impact on people. Btw nearly everyone in the Daily Wire is in their 30s so they probably grew up listening to rap and HipHop. I mean Candace and Knowles are 2 yrs or 3 yrs older than these rappers like Gunna and Lil Baby.

      Correct, and it harkens back to the history of all these genres. Rock, Blues, Jazz, House, Funk all these genres were originally hated or dubbed "negro devil music", until white artist started engaging in them, then suddenly they became tolerable. These people don't hate the music, if they did they wouldn't copy it so much. They hate that it's a black person singing it. We know they love the music, why else would they continuously try to whitewash the genres and erase blacks from influencing them

      Rap is a garbage music form. The fact that you have to defend it so heavily is proof of this. The idea that music theory can be dismissed as it somehow “does” apply to rap or it’s somehow not an actual science is a joke.
      It’s not considered a science because it is the unpopular thing to do. For so many “free thinkers” who are just so much more logical and thought out then people like Ben Shapiro... you people really like to ignore the basic fact that so called “authorities” on subjects...
      Like to lie...
      We have literal doctors nowadays saying men can get pregnant. Are you gonna say they are right?
      Bens absolutely right about rap and the proof is in how stale and bland music has gotten. It’s a fact that rap has gotten more and more “samey” along with many other kinds of music due to the advent of so called “tastes”...
      No you don’t have a different taste. It’s just that you like garbage music the objectively goes against the very foundations of what music truly is. It’s like art and how people call and think literal garbage on the ground in a art museum makes it a thought provoking masterpiece...
      Honestly you people are jokes... when garbage like WAP is being made. You have to ask yourself if there is some kind of connection between that and the argument that music is getting more and more terrible.
      No rap has no single melody or cord of it’s own. It’s majorly stale repetitive beats that you people bring up as the future of music. There’s a reason people who like rap so often compare it to storytelling then other music. Because it isn’t music. Most rap nowadays can’t even remain in a realm of their own success that being the merging of poetry with song.
      Figures like Tom McDonald who is a rapper in fact say it best. The majority of rappers today aren’t making music. Their making sound... and the idea that sound in general is music is as laughable as saying creating something makes it art. It isn’t.
      Pop culture doesn’t exist because it’s genuinely popular. Especially nowadays. It exists because it’s a form of manipulation and product placement. Rap is big with shows, adverts, company’s, sports and more.
      No rap isn’t good and no you idiots thinking otherwise doesn’t magically make it great. You people like the equivalent of ads on your video instead of something with actual substance.
      Music has been on a trend of dying alongside raps popularity.
      Honestly I don’t need to say anything else but that.

      Rap is a garbage music form. The fact that you have to defend it so heavily is proof of this. The idea that music theory can be dismissed as it somehow “does” apply to rap or it’s somehow not an actual science is a joke.
      It’s not considered a science because it is the unpopular thing to do. For so many “free thinkers” who are just so much more logical and thought out then people like Ben Shapiro... you people really like to ignore the basic fact that so called “authorities” on subjects...
      Like to lie...
      We have literal doctors nowadays saying men can get pregnant. Are you gonna say they are right?
      Bens absolutely right about rap and the proof is in how stale and bland music has gotten. It’s a fact that rap has gotten more and more “samey” along with many other kinds of music due to the advent of so called “tastes”...
      No you don’t have a different taste. It’s just that you like garbage music the objectively goes against the very foundations of what music truly is. It’s like art and how people call and think literal garbage on the ground in a art museum makes it a thought provoking masterpiece...
      Honestly you people are jokes... when garbage like WAP is being made. You have to ask yourself if there is some kind of connection between that and the argument that music is getting more and more terrible.
      No rap has no single melody or cord of it’s own. It’s majorly stale repetitive beats that you people bring up as the future of music. There’s a reason people who like rap so often compare it to storytelling then other music. Because it isn’t music. Most rap nowadays can’t even remain in a realm of their own success that being the merging of poetry with song.
      Figures like Tom McDonald who is a rapper in fact say it best. The majority of rappers today aren’t making music. Their making sound... and the idea that sound in general is music is as laughable as saying creating something makes it art. It isn’t.
      Pop culture doesn’t exist because it’s genuinely popular. Especially nowadays. It exists because it’s a form of manipulation and product placement. Rap is big with shows, adverts, company’s, sports and more.
      No rap isn’t good and no you idiots thinking otherwise doesn’t magically make it great. You people like the equivalent of ads on your video instead of something with actual substance.

    I am a rapper, and have been since 2006. I’ve listened to the music since 1992, approx. From writing my own raps, I can say that if you think this music, or media in general, doesn’t affect you, you’re delusional. One example of this, that I think just about anyone can relate to, is that you’ll have noticed how listeners of any given genre tend to talk, dress and act the same.
    What we’re never taught in Western society is that thought induces action, so if I can get you talking/thinking a certain way, behaviours and actions befitting those thoughts will naturally follow. This doesn’t mean that if you listen to Hip Hop that you’re going to shoot and kill, but it does mean that you’ll probably have a mind loaded with attack thoughts and ego, and this affects your life in the deepest way possible. You’ll find yourself being very argumentative, repeating arguments in your head over and over and making yourself the winner. You’ll believe in revenge, and domination. You’ll be highly judgemental, and perhaps anxious and/or depressed as a result, or most likely destined for that at some point.
    You get away with nothing in this life. Stop fooling yourselves. This has been extremely difficult for me to admit, but my experience is undeniable. At this point, I still listen to the music, but speaking this truth is a matter of personal integrity.

    I would consider myself “republican” or at least right wing or conservative. However I love hip hop it’s my favorite genre and my father (who is also conservative) loves hip hop just as much. We grew up in the Lower East Side of Manhattan and we were both raised in very Christian households. There’s a lot of conservatives who love rap music even though we may disagree with some of their political takes. Conservatives are over represented by old white people that are racist (which is understandable). One thing that’s surprising is that a lot of rapper are conservative, Christian, and Pro Gun.

    well they're conservatives, and considering rappers often rap about violence, hedonism, and misogyny, no amount of good beats will make that look favorable to them

    This music isn't for them. Simple as that. Of course the guy who has an American flag in a frame on his wall isn't gonna be feeling it but arguing that it isn't music for anyone is exhaustingly absurd. I discovered hip hop when I was lonely kid at school always getting picked on. Matt also seems like he was a lonely kid always getting picked on but developed in the opposite direction
