I put the no particle, thinking I'm connecting two nouns, but I was wrong. In the back of my head, I knew it was wa. I haven't learned tadashii dayo yet, but I heard being used in anime a lot.

Again, you not liking something is not the same as something not being music.
Maybe if thread was "is rap good", we could have a rational debate.
Either way, I'm out. Have a nice day.

Its probably been said already in every single reply to this... But yeah, dude, rap is considered music. Its a music wherein the vocals set the stage instead of instruments/sounds/whatevatheyusing, and some people just can't appreciate that. But it doesn't negate it being music.

One or two notes does not qualify as music Most music requires a series of pitches that cover portions of a musical scale. But many rap songs have no melody at all, having one or two notes at most. I classify rap as rhythmic chanting. This does not mean I do not like any rap, but am reluctant to call it music.
