No...rapping is talking, and talking is talking...not music. And it's usually very bad talking to boot.
Even if that's true, it still doesn't mean anything with rhythm is music. Otherwise my dishwasher is making music.
Today's rappers, with their idiotic ebonics, make the sloppy English of old blues guys like Robert Johnson, sound Shakespearean in comparison. To call rappers poets is a riot. Poetry requires fluent literature for starters.
The noises my body makes when I'm on the toilet are more intruiging than modern rap. The sound of diarrhea hitting fresh porcelain is vaguely avant garde.
That isn't trolling; just having a little fun.Pretty sure you're trolling at this point.

Rappers write verses with metaphors, similes and symbolism. Their lyrics contain hidden meanings, so their work can be poetic. While they come up with their own words and phrases and even grammatical conjugations, is there anything wrong with that? I think a language should be free to change and evolve, and it's good that there are people experimenting to see what variations can work.
It's usually best to ignore the opinions of people who say "this isn't real art", or something along those lines. They're typically obnoxious morons hopelessly blinded by their own cultural influences and elitism.
Isn't it ironic how the people who think rap = music are the same people who think ad hominem = ignore.
