You're saying certain times of music (which I think is boring, uninspired garbage, by the way) are more fruitful - which is fine on its face - but then you attempt to align your opinions with the definition of music so you can impose your will on other people and make them admit that the thing they like (Rap in this case) isn't music.
The question is not "is rap music," sir. But "are you Hitler?"

Yeah, I want the world to be predominantly tall, blue-eyed, blondes.

The beats are considered music in a sense, but it's not my type of music. The rapping is not. My observation when I was a teenager is that it is just a person yapping nonsense on a mic.

I'm not trying to eliminate rap. Since most people like rap, it's here to stay. I just want to know the opinions of other people if it's music or not. I personally don't consider rap music and I have a peace of mind listening to my own music and staying away from rap.
