RAP is CRAP - let's admit it.
Rick Beato ^ | 10/3/2022 | Self

Posted on 10/03/2022 6:09:25 AM PDT by 1Old Pro

Listening to a few Rick Beato features like the link above - Episode 91 with Joni Mitchell.

Whether it's the top 20 guitar solos or it's this piece discussing Joni Mitchell it becomes obvious that from folk to metal to rock to county we have some brilliant musicians. They understand theory, phrasing, poetry, art.

Every aspiring musician that grabs a guitar and starts playing has to realize the complexity of music and the genius of some of these musicians from Larry Carlton to John Bonham.

Too right— love the whipped cream dispenser!

Go Gators this AM— a very pleasant memory song- ARS

“Last night the Georgia Rhythm tore up another town.....” Y’all be well— it goes around and come around back as the crap rolls away as bad moments to be forgotten in time.

“Georgia Rhythm”-

First learned of Rick Beato a few years back when I watched this video while strolling thru YouTube:

"TOP 20 ACOUSTIC GUITAR INTROS OF ALL TIME"

Not many of these intros, when I heard them crank up on the radio, that I didn't automatically start singing along with...

It should come as no surprise that one of Satan’s jobs before he got booted from heaven was as in the praise band.

Ezekiel 28:13. β€œThe workmanship of your timbrels and pipes was prepared for you on the day you were created.”

/\

That’s why he’s so good at using music ,,,, and now after his fall its one of his greatest tools to currupt.

And if you like county, try the state music.

I don’t think rap is any worse than pop these days. Lyrically, rap might even have an edge, but the “music” part is equally fake. Supposedly some of these pop artists can actually sing well, but I would have to hear them live to actually believe it with the prevalence of autotune. The fundamental problem with modern music is the music industry followed by an overly marketed, indoctrinated, and ignorant audience. “Hits” are bought more than made now. Artists that don’t conform to the music industry standards have to struggle for traction using alternate means, which excludes them from benefits other (conforming) artists enjoy. Take Tom MacDonald for example, they constantly screw him in the charts. Part of that is because he’s doesn’t pretend to be liberal, and the other is that he wants to be an independent artist. Love or hate his “music”, he’s taking the fight to the libs.
