I've been a professional musician for over 30 years. Ive played Vegas, the Grand Ole Opry, Austin City Limits, well....just about everywhere........I like all types of music, I've played most of it.......The problem is that rap and jazz are not musical. I just don't get it. I've tried, I just don't get it. The people who say they get it, are the same ones that can't clap to the music, or dance in time. They're music lovers, for sure, they just don't know why. ...oh, well...

Let me take rap out of this for a second - are you really saying that people who "get" jazz have no sense of rhythm, and that they love music but don't know anything about it? And jazz is "not musical"? Nah...couldn't be. (I'm a professional musician also - 25 years.)

If you're wondering if it's you, no offense, but it is.
