Atleast country supports good morals, well, to a larger extent than "ganst er rap" atleast. If I had to choose which is better to encourage in music, between drinking, ( country), or getting high from illegal drugs, ( rap), I'd choose country since atleast getting drunk is legal, though it shouldn't be.
But I do dislike it just as much as rap, musically.

ahhh.... I particularly loathe crossover country... some
beefcake/pretty boy from frickin California or wherever who
couldn't hack it in a rock band.... moves to Nashville.... throws a
cowboy hat on...voila...he's country. Give me some *ss kicking,
whiskey drinking, tobacco chewing, time in the state pen old style
country music. Some David Allan Coe perhaps hahahha.
To paraphrase the immortal D.A.C. with regards to today's country
music..that I'm subjected too on a daily basis by my loving wife hahahah
' If that is country..I'll kiss your *ss'

Country. At least some rap is enjoyable for comical purposes (for
example, "Let's Gooooooooooooooooooo" by Lil Jon and Trick Daddy)

There are always exceptions to the rule, but I guess we are generalizing. I see no overall redeeming qualities in Gangsta Rap. Most of it could be concieved, and recorded in less than a day. Not much talent needed.
I also think that the resurgence of the hair bands is pretty sad. But, there is at least some writing of music, and playing of instruments involved there.

I agree on gangsta rap. To an extent, these styles might have something good in them sometimes but gangsta rap seems to be the exception. The genre is musically not interesting but the whole thing that comes with it (ideology, videos) is even worse. In fact, I just hate the gangsta's ideology. That's not even close to funny and intelligent.

All the attention for progmetal and bands that has nothing to do with progrock, Prog Archives is flooded by those bands, back to the roots!
