Like I said I'm much the same way. Rap is one of those things that I find pretty interesting. Some of it is simply beautiful poetry set to a nice beat. Some of it is garbage and not worth talking about. I've always felt there were 2 main groups, Club rap and Poetry Rap. Club rap is what you hear... at a club, it's a good beat with words that mean nothing, I hate it. Poetry rap is a bit more interesting, but even that has far more bad than good, lots of it pandering to certain ideals that simply make me sad. But, that's why when I hear people like Kid Cudi talking about real and global issues it just strikes me and I love it so much. Probably my favorite line in all of rap is from him "The moon will illuminate my room and soon I'm consumed by my doom" in a rap talking about his depression (and an album where he speaks about Night terrors).
Anyways not a huge fan of the genre, I listen mostly to Rock (often Metal), Classical, and Electronic. Just some of these rappers are really worth respecting and giving a chance and not lumping them with the sacks of crap that are out there.

ETA I don't like em either
Ive never actually listened to straigh outta compton.
Actually rap can be done really well, it can take just as much talent as any other genre.
Eminem's rap God was in the Guinness world records as the hit single which contains the most words; it totals 1,560 words in less than 8 minutes.
It's not all ho's and drugs, and sometimes you'd be surprised
its all about the talent of the artist and the style of it.
For the record, I listen to all genres in all different styles. Never did all the music history or anything but it's a passion

Yup, I'd like to think I give everything a fair chance but in reality rap and country I have a general bias against as the majority of it I find more annoying than enjoyable. But, there are certainly artists that I love in both genres. I'm pretty open to music, if I listed my favorite songs there'd probably be at least one song of every different genre. Willy Nelson is my guy for Country, just love his voice, and his son is pretty amazing too.Actually rap can be done really well, it can take just as much talent as any other genre.

I consider that awesome so... yeah
"What are you vaping and what are you listening to?!"
THIS!!!! So much this!! And that's why I LOVE Eminem. You can't deny this man's talent. Nope. Plus, he can actually sing. One of my faves of his, which I'm listening to now, is Lose Yourself. I love him.
But, I'm on a huge NWA kick again for the umpteenth time in my life from having watched the movie recently. I may not always understand what is being said in a lot of stuff, not just rap, plus I'm hearing impaired, but I love the beats so much!

This is more my style...
Love me a good cover/crossover. My favs:
(Local classic rock station was making fun of this one the other day, which disappointing me).
I love the new covers out now of old songs too. Careless whispers, killer Queen (Adam Lambert, holy shit you guys it's worth watching) and so many others being completely redone in some really fun ways
A lot of people say music these days sucks. I think there is some serious talent out there right now, and every time period has its greats. But sometimes the real talent hides behind the top 40, sometimes it is the top 40.

there are actually some very talented people on the top 100 chart in the past year. It may not be your cup of tea but that doesn't mean the artist isn't great at their work.
Damn ok you guys got me started. I'll shut up now 
time for snuggling with my blanket anyway

Music debate is the best kind of debate, because in the end it doesn't matter, and in the process you're usually exposed to some pretty awesome stuff.Damn ok you guys got me started. I'll shut up now
Night y'all, smooches
Gnite Always!

I tend to look for the artists that are actually musicians. some are surprising, Trent Reznor from nine inch nails, is an amazing classically trained musician.
Have you seen the movie? Ice Cube's son plays him. Damn they look SO much alike. I loved it. I was hootin' and hollerin' during that movie. That was fun!!
