"I don't know much about Rap, but what I do know of it has no musical form, only rythem. I believe it was invented so those with NO musical talent whatsoever could pretend to be in the music business."

Rhythm is form. The no-musical-talent invention was punk, not rap, which is the more musically sophisticated of the two.

Have you ever heard of melody? Music to me must have more than rhythm. Poetry with rhythm still has no melody, and music without melody is not music.
