A Hobbit's Adventure
I really liked the musical "Matilda" based off the Roald Dahl book, it has good and funny songs written by Tim Minchin, who is kind of like r/atheism incarnate but actually good and funny too.

That song was in rhyme but it was strange. I never felt like the lines were really flowing and there wasn't really much wordplay. It had more in common with a mediocre musical song then a rap song but I suppose at the end of the day that's exactly what it is. The song is wearing raps clothes but does that make it rap? Not really.

i heard about this play, they said its a play where peeps of color make their own musical that isn't white. that's cool, because white people who sing musicals all sound the same and that sound is bad. all those performing art school dorks singin "look at this stuff, isn't it neat??" in that same awful voice. or that "tomorrow tomorrow I'll love ya tomorrow!!!" song, gently caress that song is bad.

p's o.c. don't sing bad like white people, they sing raps and r&bs and those are soothing in an excitable way. hamilton therefore is good.

In hamilton they make real bad raps in that same awful Broadway voice

This drink is like somebody's memory of a grapefruit, and the memory is fading.
My nerdy friends who have never been hip hop fans put on a Hamilton song, sure that I would like it, and then rapped along in the most excruciating way. This seems pretty typical of hamilton fans.

I've heard it said that Hamilton is hip hop for white folks, which is dumb as hell. Hip hop is hip hop for white folks. Hamilton is musical theater (itself a (lovely) genre of music) made with a hip hop palette. And it is mostly bad, yeah.

If you live in a country where completely vapid familes that LITTERALLY do nothing but have pretend arguments are able to become famous and make hundreds of millions of dollars based entirely on nothing then you do not get to have any opinion on any form of entertainment. Your tastes and values are as worthless as a 12 year olds ideas on how to create world peace.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

I've also never managed to sit all the way through one of its songs, OP. It's probably safe to assume it's bad.

Which is weird because Moana was written by the same guy and it's very good.

Actually Moana was really bad in fact I call it "groan-a" and it reminded me why I decided long ago to never watch a computer animated thing except for Pixar ever again. Also to also never watch a Pixar movie with the word cars in the title

i hate showtunse but love busdriver, milo, asap rocky, rtj, open mike eagle, nicki, jurassic 5+tuna's solo stuff, blkhrts, mos def, atmosphere, and the roots

hamilton more reminds me of 80s rap like grandmaster flash/llcoolj/run dmc but its a fuckin musical that incorporates hip hop and never professed to be anything else so i cut it some slack and enjoyed the playful delivery & funny punchlines instead of getting buttmad and demanding to see the hip hop credentials of something awful forum goons

white people are going apeshit for hamilton not because it's some pillar magnum opus of hip hop culture but because it's the first time in a while anyone has tried marketing hip hop to white people, and hip hop is really good and fun but shitloads of white people just never noticed because nobody tried to sell it to them. so stuff like license to ill/vanilla ice/eminem/hamilton come along and blow up not because they're 10x better than other hip hop but because the audience they're being marketed to is bigger AND has no frame of reference so they're experiencing all the stuff that makes hip hop awesome in earnest for the first time, so they go absolutely batshit over an album or artist that may not be super remarkable or innovative technically or musically

but serious though if you haven't sat down and listened to the cast album your opinion isn't worth much. it's a musical, not an album of radio singles. just let yourself get pulled in by the narrative and stop trying to be King Retard picking apart why Popular Thing is bad
