Tell them this: oh well, there's something called lyricists too, and they got better vocabulary than most professors.. in fact they study their texts in hi-schools and universitys..When they want examples, you tell them Ras Kass, Pharoahe Monch, or your favorite lyricist..And finish it off with: "I bet you wouldn't understand half of their metaphors, or half the words they use".. and then they will be like "Oh, hmm.. I see"Discussion won! (As usual.. )
Hmmm, well out of what you mentioned, they're all true in 90% of the cases, so how can you be mad that people assume those stereotypes are true? They're reinforced constantly. It's not like they just one day decided to hate rap, things made them decide to hate rap.
One thing that pisses me off is when my friends who are casual rap fans and when i say i listen to rap for the message they give, they just there aren't any messages it's just about how they flow over the beat. I then play them some Ras Kass and knock them out.
