Name 1 "emo" band and I can defend the position

Falloutboy.

Rap - depends what genre of rap but things like Public Enemy, 2pac and Eminem all touch on subjects that are important to the world at large.

To the hip-hop fans, such as myself, I do not consider Public Enemy and 2Pac in the same stream of music as artists like Lil Wayne, or Soulja Boy.

satansmunchkin:

Country - You don't like Ryan Adams or Dolly Parton? Songs about mundane life that ring true to a lot of people, don't know why people would want to listen to that...

I do like country, but I think that sometimes the lyrics are hysterical.
"I love my tractor more than I love my wife." is practically what they say.

satansmunchkin:

Commercial Rock - Bon Jovi could be classed as such and I find that brilliant to get myself psyched up before a night out because it's so cheesy it makes me smile! "Whoa livin' on a prayer"

Bon Jovi doesn't explain the mess that is Jonas Brothers, or Paramore.

Faerie_child:
Remixes. Sometimes they're ok but most are horrible. Example remix of Thriller.

Techno. I just don't like it.

If you're generalizing Electronica as Techno, I can almost guarantee you, I'll find you an Electronica song that will blow you away.

Death Metal or as I call it Screamo. Second name is enough explaination.

I have noticed that a lot of people have some misconceptions on what death metal really is. This is Death Metal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aep-u0-CUSc

This is Screamo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcaqn65Znxo

Now I like screamo, but death metal is crap.

I also dislike emo its just...I don't know...I just don't like. I really can't explain it, I am not sure if its the music or the vocals but when I listen to it I am just put into an irritable mood.

Besides that I like pretty much everything else, some I like some I don't.

Depends on how you look at it, see I'm sure explaining this to you will probably *insult your intelect, but "Niger" is latin for black so a song with a name like Strickly 4 my niggaz is pritty much saying Strickly for my blacks, I'm not offended by the word and I dont understand why its seen as an offence anymore, its sorta like me being offended by being called a hwi't or hwitaz, but I found it funny that he would sing a song saying that it doesnt matter if your "black or white becuase were human" then name a song "Stricktly for my blacks".

* by insult your intelect I mean you probably know this and not that I think your stupid, just to clear that up before I accidentally offend you.

But 'nigger' doesn't mean anything anymore. It's not considered a racist term amongst a certain demographic of black people, and I've even seen white people use it and not cause any trouble. It's a very bizarre word, where if you're accepted as 'black' (even if that isn't your skin colour) it's a thing to use it to 'reclaim' it from how it degraded into a racist term.

A lot of these songs come from a culture and a problem in America that is nearly impossible to understand in England, yet bizarrely is highly emulated.

I think 2pacs contradicts himself alot, one song "It aint about Black and White becuase were human" scored points with me, becuase it showed that he wasnt a racist and that he was showing equality in his music, and then he makes a song named "Stricktly 4 my N.I.G.G.A.Z" and makes songs with lyrics like "To all of my Niggaz" and to top it off he gang rapes some one, losing all the respect I have for him.

Oh but he most definitively is, to say it with the immortal words of Lorreta Lynn:

"If you're looking at me, you're looking at country", if you listen to Johnny Cash you're not only listening to a important figure in country music, but to the very heart and soul of country music.

THEBIJ:
I agree. Any kind of country is bad music.

Yeah, right. How can you even remotely like something by Johnny Cash or Kris Kristofferson.

Oh, wait, but I do.

Oh you got me there, Johnny Cash is BA. But would you consider him country? I don't think I could categorize him like that.

Alot of people seem to be missing out on the second part of the title; "why".
