When you see a movie that you dislike, would you say "this isn't a movie"?
When you don't like a novel, do you say "this isn't a book"?
No, you don't, because that would be insane.
So, then, why is it okay to say that X isn't music?
You clearly dislike hip hop, which is fine, but that doesn't make it not music. That's delusional.
Also, you can get a lot more removed from what is traditionally considered music than hip hop.
