Or as I said earlier, you can learn to appreciate it in it's own context.

I was talking about music and music alone, my point is, speaking/rapping or whatever doesn't carry any emotion to me, it's just emotionless in the interest of speedy delivery, or it reminds me of some middle schooler trying to sound tough.

But yet you can find emotion and meaning behind the various blips and blops of most electronic music?

I guess I have to hold rap up to a higher standard when it comes to picking the songs I can listen to and enjoy than some other genres for that reason.

It's the same reason why you wouldn't listen to the Ramones for incredible musicianship - you can't expect the music to serve a purpose that it wasn't intended to. I can guarantee that if you put in the effort and check out some of the artists mentioned in this thread then you'll find something you like.
