Regarding pop and rock music: I think it was when the click-track recordings started to take over, and when the musicians stopped playing together at the same time as a band on the recordings, this is where the musical pace and feeling died on many records.
Technical ”perfect” with computer programs correcting the beats, then turned out to be less musical, less fun to listen to , and less rythmical.
Rap music is a very primitive music style, where the vocals have been robbed the ability to make tunes. Its a mystery why Its still so popular, and maybe this musicform is one of the enemy of future progress in hifi. This musicstyle make people tone-deaf and should be avoided.
Clearly never actually listened to rap
. Or maybe its just a tad too complex for you to follow, which is most likely the case.
An album like Madvillainy is easily one of the best albums all time. Not just just in hip-pop but in all of music. Extremely creative in terms of beats, flow, lyrics, sampling, story telling, style. Its ok if its not your thing, but if you call this primitive that makes 99% of all music made ever primitive (especially something like The Pollice, that is some basic music). I'm not the greatest hip-hop fan there is, but neither am I of any other genre. All genres have good and bad music. Its like your argument is that poems aren't novels. Yes we know. Poems are their own thing. I see a lot of similarities between poems and rap.
Some """"primitive"""" rhymes for you.
Rap music is very wrong - it makes you tone deaf. This music wasnt popular in the 1970-80.
Tone deaf? That's weird, because I see rappers performing live with live instruments and beats all the time? The vast majority of them are also multi instrumentalists.
