It's category just to prevent arguements. Everyone can make a rap song. It requires almost no skills, no need of making music (that's what I mean - how can "rap songs" be songs if there are like two different notes in a whole "song"?). Don't tell me that when rapping, you express your feelings, thoughts, etc. Better make a good poem about those things. And of course, the funny "rapper attitude" - "gangsta" shit, the radio carrying on your shoulder and other non-senses.

Uhh that's how rap first started and it remained that way up until the 2000s. If you don't listen to a music genre then you don't know how deep it can be and you only hear it. To me heavy metal isn't that deep and I don't find meaning in it but I know fine well there's a lot more to it that attracts people to it (and it is meaningful to those who understand).

Just because you don't like a music category doesn't mean it's not music.

Oh and if you're classing rap as non-music because people don't express their feelings and stuff (they do) then RnB and POP isn't music because most of the artists get the songs written for them and sing a bunch of shit about love and stuff but don't even mean it. Similar can be said about these boy bands (Back Street Boys for example). The only thing on their mind when singing is money.

You think all these rappers sing for something, instead of money? Everything is for money now. And please explain me how can rap be music? I mean when those rappers start rapping WITHOUT music in the background or just with 1 "bam bam" in the song and a plain pre-learned text?

Almost everyone sings (and/or raps) for money NOW but in the 90s they didn't always. There are underground rappers today who are much better than mainstream artists but don't get recognition or money. If they cared about the money that much I think they'd either give up or step up the game.

And again when rap started it was done by slaves so of course they wouldn't get money for it, they just expressed their feelings and did it for entertainment.

And music doesn't necessarily mean singing, they use beats and rhythm and they use lines and the good rappers had a good flow in their songs and their lyrics were meaningful.

Again, if we use your arguement RnB and POP artists aren't singers as all they have is some flow in the music that people get drawn into. Nobody listens to RnB and POP for the lyrics (they're almost all about love anyway) and the singers don't mean what their lyrics say. The only reason they all sing about love is because it's what always makes the charts and radio stations (bringing them more money and fame)...like most modern rappers.
