I think that "everyone hates rap and hip-hop" thing is total bull♥♥♥♥, because every time that happens there seem to be just as many coming up to defend it.

Personally I can't stand rap and hip-hop (call them the same if you want, I don't care for technicalities). And I know that instantly will make people call me shallow or whatever other nonsense I've been called for it in the past.

It's a freaking musical preference. I'm a jazz and rock kind of guy myself.

But anyway, I think most people can agree that mainstream (MTV-grade) rap and hip-hop sucks. It's also probably why many people say they don't like the genre.
