I’m not big into hip-hop, but rap and R&B I like, on occasion. The genre allows for some interesting lyrical work that, if it were printed in poetry, people would be in love, and some rappers can string that together for minutes at a time - it’s impressive, if nothing else. And while some songs are gratuitous with its sexual imagery and the dumbass male dominance persona, others make for great outlets for repressed emotions, like anger or fear
