If music means organized sound, then rap is music. If music means a melodic and/or percussive sounds of different pitches organized into structural pieces, then rap probably isn't music. Beat boxing is. I like beat boxing.
...back to the thread...
Does rap suck? Basically, yes, imho. I'd say that most rap, the rap you might hear on Clear Channel stations or on MTV, is pretty disrespectful, petty, childish, and shallow. Occasionally, there will be good rap and it's usually underground or non-mainstream.
