My brother generally dislikes rap (with a few exceptions), and for some reason today he felt it necessary to tell me out of the blue, “You really need to stop listening to rap.” Naturally, my first response was to ask why.
The first (and only) example of a bad rapper my brother brought up was Rick Ross. He stated that Rick Ross is “unimaginative”, “raps in the same voice all the time”, “says ‘Rozay!’ in most of his songs”, and is only good because of his production. He also said that Rick Ross is a good lyricist.
First, I asked my brother to name a couple songs where Ross says “Rozay!” He thought about it, said Lord Knows (by Drake) and couldn’t name anymore. I told him that an obvious example would have been King of Diamonds since the whole chorus is, in fact, simply Ross repeating “Rozay!” But clearly my brother was unfamiliar with the song.
I can agree that the production is a big part of why I can enjoy Ross’ music. Lyrically, not really, and I had to laugh when my brother said that Ross was good lyrically. Not to say Ross can’t be good when he actually tries, but I doubt my brother has listened to Free Mason or Rich Forever either, so I’m not sure where he got that from.
But even when Ross isn’t trying, he can still be entertaining. My brother disagrees, and finds Ross’ voice boring and monotonous. Personally, I see nothing wrong with having a consistent voice. It’s not like Ross is delivering a class lecture; it’s a 16 bar verse. He’s recognizable and can certainly change up his voice when he pleases.
As for Ross being “unimaginative”, I see no problem with this either. What’s wrong with making music that doesn’t push some musical boundary? Not everything has to be an attempt to revolutionize music. Ross fills a niche, and he does it well. I brought up the song Hold Me Back (my brother has heard this song) because I felt like it is song that serves a certain purpose. It’s become my personal “pump-up” song for playing video games, and my stepbrother openly shares this sentiment. My brother says that repeating “Deez n!ggas won’t hold me back” over and over isn’t good music, while I think the repetition is great because it takes my mind off the lyrics and lets me focus on gaming while still giving a blood rush.
After this, my brother finished with, “You people (by this, I assume he means Rick Ross fans) are fake.” I tried to ask him what he meant by “fake”, and he responded “Made in China” ಠ_ಠ
The conversation ended after I pushed for him to explain himself and he abruptly changed the topic by talking about some TV show, which I responded to by walking away.
I’m sure I come off as biased, but everything here is what was discussed, although I don’t have a transcript of the conversation so you’ll just have to take my word for it. My question is, regardless of your own thoughts on Rick Ross, did I make a decent argument? I’m hardly the biggest Ross fan, but I do feel like my brother voiced a couple ignorant opinions that he really couldn’t back up, and he backed out when it went downhill. I don’t think anyone could possibly agree with his argument, but if you do, please feel free to say so and explain why.
Inb4 “tl;dr”
BQ: Have you ever been in a similar situation, where you tried to argue with someone who knew relatively little about rap and/or had misconceptions about it?
BQ2: General thoughts on Rick Ross?
BQ3: By separating the question into paragraphs instead of one big wall of text, did it make it easier for you to read?

Who doesn’t love cinnamon right? As a kid I loved cinnamon so much, that I had it with toast, pancakes, even bread! After eating cinnamon for so long, it just got boring until Dr. Puffs liberated me with his new cereal Cinnamon Puffs., which made me fall in love with cinnamon all over again. Here’s a look as to what makes this cereal so great.
As you eat the cereal, you will feel positive from this really cool “honey” sensation, which comes from a special type of sugar. Although the cereal’s main ingredient is this special sugar, instead of gaining weight you will actually lose a couple of pounds! With this cereal you get everything; the taste, the positive attitude all while looking good.
Beyond just eating Cinnamon Puffs, the cheapest cereal on the market, you are also making the best choice for yourself. For example according to recent research, 95 percent of those who eat Cinnamon Puffs every morning for breakfast save money, feel better about themselves, as well as lose weight. Dr. Oz, the top doctor in the world, has been eating this cereal for over 20 years; he even picked it as the #1 cereal for people who want to be healthy.
So let’s say you are having a really bad day, well just one bite of Cinnamon Puffs will make you feel all better. The secret to why this happens is because Dr. Puffs injects each cinnamon puff with a healthy “feel good” syndrome. The cereal will make anyone feel better about themselves since all of the profits go to the Animal Humane Society, which helps animals get the care they need as well as a good home to go to. So every time you take a bit of Cinnamon Puffs you know that you are doing something good for all of those animals out there.
Cinnamon Puffs is the best cereal to hit the stores because it has so many immense benefits with the biggest one being that it makes you feel positive from this cool “honey” sensation. While eating this cereal every day, you know that you are making the best choice for yourself because you will feel better, you will save money since it is the cheapest cereal, you will lose some weight, but if Dr. Oz eats it, well you know it’s’ a good type of food for your body. Now it’s your turn to change for the better by buying Cinnamon Puffs, your best decision ever.
