I'd just like you all to have a look at my signature. What is good and
what sucks the most depends on who you ask. Hence, there can't really
be one type of music that is the worst one. Just try to accept
everything, even rap.

None, all genres have potential to be creative and intresting.

Rap sucks! Rap just has no melody, very little talent involved (rhyming does take a little bit of talent - a little). I don't understand why rap is so popular. The rhythms are boring and uninnovative. Rap is boring horse sh*t.

That's the thing: potencial. Several genres have no one trying to be creative (some disco, punk, and grunge band attempt to be creative and succeed). Rap is all the same, except for a few novelty songs that still suck.
Remember: just because something has potencial, it still can suck huge lollipops.

Don't even get me STARTED on Gangsta rap, I could write a furious essay about how it destroys lives and has no positive value whatsoever. Old school rap is a different story, but it wasn't the homogenized sexist "anti society" (whilst maintaining being the most popular genre of "music" ) that "gangsta rap" is, which is self glorification for the sake of making yourself better
Well, not really destroys lives, but does give off a negative image. Sorry, jumped the gun a little there

The stuff that gets called R&B - but is blatantly soft porn featuring women that have had a lot of gargling practice.

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

Any genre is capable of producing its own amount of creativity...
except for grunge rock that is. i hate grunge rock.
and i'm nto a fan of hashed out and annoying country.
these are the only two genres in the musical world i KNOW i cannot stand.
and just for the record there is some very creative rap out there...but in terms of 'gangsta' rap i dunno take it or leave it.
also i didn't vote.
but grunge sucks.

I'm a reasonable man, get off my case

True gangsta rap like NWA was not really about self glorification.
All they were doing was writing about what went on in the enviroment that they lived in,and what they saw on a daily basis.

No genre of music "sucks." Just because you don't like it doesn't mean other people can't find something in it to enjoy.

Well, "gangsta rap" by it's modern definition is terrrible. I mean, if you can write about problems in your society and your environment, and do it well, then do it! But don't do it by having naked women randomly cavorting around you whilst proclaiming that you're great that you live in the environment, indirectly selling the environment to suburban white people with little to no taste in music that want to belong to a clique

Gangsta Rap. Not because of the music, but because of the messages transmitted. They make murder look like a walk in the park...

I asked my daughter what R&B meant (obviously I knew the answer) and she replied correctlyas far as she was concerned, "Rhythm and Bass".
So that's it-R&B no longer means Rhythm and Blues,its official!

I can't imagine a music genre to suck more than greek pop music. For fun, I voted for the "Hair Band" 80's resurgence. Rarely I listen to these things.
