Why do a lot of white people hate rap so much? Is it because there always talking about sex drugs guns etc? White people do that just as much. So why do they hate it so much?

they dont hate rap in general. Since 50 cent brought out his album it's turned people off as the majority of white people can't relate to the 'gangster' image so to them its just bullshit on a mic.

well its basicly what you said fate you cant imagine how many drug-addicts there are, but the only people who wanna talk about it are rappers most times. but because they bring those subjects to the front, the other people ignore it and try to pull it away or something.
they dont want to be confrontated with the facts. and thats the problem. if everyone would admit their thoughts, there would be a lot less problems. but when its about guns violence and drugs, hiphop is the music that brings the problems to the front. thats why there is a group of people who are really against hiphop and a group that is behind hiphop. and that makes the difference that so many people "hate" hiphop bad mainstream rappers is also a problem but not the biggest i think

alot of genres of music bring problems to the front...just mainstream rappers usually kinda brag about their 'part' in it...

It's because their parents hate it.It could be as simple as that, and they don't give it a fair chance.

first i think you should stop categorizing. its not only white people who hate rap. many types of people hate rap for certain reasons.
although you are right when they say hiphop is violent and that rock is less violent.
working in a music store, i have heard countless rock songs talking about killing themselves, and the good old fashion razor blazes to the wrists.
People are ignorant, its a human nature to some extent.

i dont think its ALL white people maybe mostly ,but its not because of color its because of stubborness ,failure to see past your own implications. and like someone else said it can be this traditional hand-me-down that you're taught as a kid not to like rap so you never give it a chance ..... i for one was one of those kids who was taught not to listen to it,that it was violent and trashy and etc. so by the time i hit 11-13 i went thru a few stages of music first it was the boyband girl band thing pop melody music, then it was kid rock and limp bizkit and korn and by the time my mom realized what kinda lyrics korn had she basically just gave up on telling me what to listen to as long as it didnt effect my behavior (which it didnt) so 3-4 months of rock and metal ... i completely grew past it and was able to listen to w/e i wanted which was ...rap & hip hop ...... basically turned onto it by mainstream beats and hooks ,and once i got into it , i realized how creative it can be and constructive and there was alot more to it then what you see on tv ,i started studing unsigned rappers,punchline rappers,underground rappers... and just developed my own style out of it all ,and .... well here i am .... off subject ....... but its basically ppl that are just ... close minded ,they think one thing and you cant tell them different,if there's a 40 yr old man that was taught all his life that rap is garbage .. then by then its good and sank in his mind that he'll never give it a chance. ... its just basically alot of how you were raised to determine why or even IF you really hate rap. some people its just not their preference or genre of music.

Uhhh....all I'ma say is underground white rappers are good lol. Mainstream white rappers suck. A lot of the mainstream is to blame for the ignorance of white people towards hip hop. The underground offers a variety of different artists that people can connect to, no matter who you are. Look at JMT...very hardcore with a sense of rock in them. I listen to both rock and hip hop myself....I can notice the differences and there's a lot, but take a listen closely. Rock contains shit like snares, and it has a beat to it....same as hip hop. In essence, they only hate Hip Hop because of the image it presents..that's the only reason I can think of. I respect both genres. If people in society (ethnic groups, no offense) would stop being ignorant and stop murdering their brethren in the streets and presenting the gimmicks and lies that mainstream has to offer, then nobody would look at hip hop this way. It came out of a struggle and that's how it's gonna continue to be looked at =\.

well the weak people (i dont mean weak with not strong, but with how high their in society) murder others to get some power. coz everyone desires power. but the strong people who rule the world also murder people to get more power, but in a higher amount.
i think you cant just stop the weak people murdering other weak people. i think the people with a lot of power should give an example. and that would stop the others to murder.
wow a lot of people in this post lol
