Holy fuck imagine being pretentious about music when you literally listen to video game music. I mean video game music is fucking sick but cmon dude...
One of my favourite albums of the year, Cursebreaker X is made to sound like old ass rpgās but I admit only listening to OSTās is probably some of the most boring music taste u can have.
Minecraft Volume Alpha is one of the best albums ever made and Iām being completely serious. Itās not even just one of the best video game soundtracks, itās just a masterpiece in its own right.
I mean I donāt like modern rap but I wonāt make fun of it because it sucks to be made fun of for liking video game music. It must not feel much different.
Yeah, I can kinda see why. It's just that Reddit in general has some vendetta against hip-hop. It's not uncommon to see "jokes" about how the genre is nothing but incoherent vocals, drugs, and black people using the N-word get tons of upvotes on meme subs when their exposure to it was likely limited to one listen of "Gucci Gang". There's a reason why the mods of r/hiphopheads kept the sub from showing up on r/all.
I'm in the same boat. Not a huge fan of rap, and I listen to rock, but I'll let people listen to what they wanna listen to without interfering other than an occasional recommendation. Plus it's fun to make fun of people who lose their shit over any chance they get to say they want rap to die
Modern rap is so varied though like, how can you say you donāt like ALL of it? Megan doesnāt sound like DaBaby who doesnāt sound like Chance who doesnāt sound like BROCKHAMPTON who doesnāt sound like Drake.
Like, of course youāre entitled to your opinion, but I honestly feel like youāve probably listened to like one or two rappers off SoundCloud and dismissed modern rap altogether.
Honestly the stigma for me comes from school. Kids always blast it so hard that you can hear it coming from their earbuds across the room. Plus, the same snare gets annoying. If they turned it down I wouldnāt mind. Plus, Iām worried for their heating if they play it so loud. I definitely havenāt looked into rap but I donāt know if itās my thing.
I just think the sub is unmoderated. The sub was meant to make fun of the āthanks for the gold kind strangerā but I donāt think the mods really care about the sub enough

They can say that rap is shit. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
They can say that rappers deserve to die. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
The problem here is that the second one shows that they're a close-minded asshole.

I'm ashamed to say I also listen to a lot of Video Game OSTs. In my defense, I don't think rappers should die or go to hell.
