Ray Charles - "Rap is not music"


I agree with Ray Charles.

I like Ray for sure, even though I don't have any of his records, but I don't think there is any musical artist, no matter how brilliant or well-regarded, who will be enjoyed by 100% of all music fans. If somebody doesn't like something, you can't deny that subjective experience. You may feel sorry for them that Ray's music doesn't do anything for them, but I don't think anybody needs to be insulted for having a different reaction to the same stimulus.  

@larsman I think that is fair and you make valid points.  
I shouldn’t have said someone who doesn’t like Ray Charles is “either a non-human or woefully ignorant.”  
My apologies.

“transparency” (Cambridge Dictionary):

*** The  characteristic of being easy to see through ***

 

 

 

Nobody has mentioned the ''explicit'' lyrics. They promote drugs,weapons,and violence against women. Not for me.
