why do normies like this garbage?
It's a celebration of musical theatre while also pushing the art form forward.
>>64340433
because black and brownwashing history is en vogue
>>64340472
pushing the art form forward by shittily rapping with cringeworthy lyrics?
>>64340509
By using hip hop as its primary form of musical expression
>>64340433
It's easy to get, and urban black culture is extremely popular amongst whites right now, especially hip hop.
You must be autistic if it comes as a surprise to you that the average person only has a casual interest in art, and thus has taste limited to what's popular and accessible.
>>64340550
no, that is very obvious, but normie whites are jizzing themselves over this shit, tickets are sold out everywhere, people are calling it the best musical of all time.
>>64340472
>>64340522
>pushing the artform forward
>using music that is objectively lacking compared to other music
Where did you get your education?
I always got the impression that white people loved it because "it's like that music that niggers love except my white ass can appreciate it!"
>>64340580
>people are calling it the best musical of all time.
I have never heard this.
>>64340580
Like I said, it plays on the most popular elements of mainstream culture right now. It's common for people to talk in hyperbole when they enjoy something, I don't think anyone is sincerely suggesting that this is the greatest musical of all time.
>>64340580
because people are cuckoos
It's an injection of something interesting into a broadway musical. Every time something unique pops up in musical theater, it gains some mainstream attention.
>>64340733
>something interesting
>hip hop
>>64340593
Please provide me with proof that hip hop is a lesser form of music.
Yall don't realize that while hip hop is nothing new, hip hop in musical theatre is, that's why it's important. also my boy from Clipping is in it.
>it's another white people on /mu/ feel cucked from life thread
>>64340854
Music is made up of the elements of style: rhythm, tone, form, melody, etc.
Hip Hop omits tone, thus making it objectively inferior to other music.
>>64340895
how does it omit tone?
>>64340862
Go do your virtual blackface on reddit. Clipping is shit, and Daveed is one of the most generic rappers out.
>>64340908
Go ahead and transcribe a Kanye West melody for me will you?
>>64340948
why are you answering a question with another question?
>>64340968
Because you can't transcribe a Kanye West melody, because he doesn't sing notes when he RAPS.
>>64340989
It's a form of music that relies on rhythm. That doesn't make it a lesser form.
>>64341054
It objectively has fewer musical qualities.
It's objectively inferior.
>>64340767
>b8 calling a post b8
this nigga think he clever
>>64341075
Again, provide some proof with your bullshit claims
>>64341075
is a black and white drawing by Leonardo worse than a color Xerox of my cock? it has objectively fewer visual qualities.
maybe you should stop being an asshat and remember people aren't wrong for liking music you don't.
8/10 bait made me reply
>>64341197
I have to provide proof that rapping doesn't involve singing notes?
Are youf ucking retarded? Are you literally in fucking special ed in your fucking high school?
>>64341241
It has fewer artistic qualities yes, that's why his black and white sketches aren't what he's known for moron.
>>64341270
Provide indisputable evidence that rap is lesser
>>64341075
Having fewer elements =/= inferior
You sound like you just read a wikipedia page on music. A piece of music can have all four elements at a low quality, whereas another piece of music (like say hip hop) can have only three but at a higher level of quality.
>>64342161
For the sake of clarity, I should also add that rapping often does involve notes. This is, however, besides the point because hip hop isn't performed a capella, and the other musical elements are achieved through the elements.
>>64342247

>>64340895
> he doesn't get what objectively means
>>64340509
Every time I see that guy Miranda do something, Hamilton or otherwise, that involves rapping I really like it. The guy can rhyme really well.
>>64341075
>>64341241
>>64341270
>>64340895
wew lad
>>64341341
Do rappers sing when tehy rap? Answer that.
>>64342161
Having fewer elements is inferior, it's fewer elements of expression, fewer artistic choices.
>>64342629
I've already explained why that's incorrect, and irrelevant. Try again.
>>64342629
Prove that fewer 'elements' is objectively artistically inferior beyond just assuming we'll take your word for it.
>>64341270
One day, maybe a few years down the road, you'll look back on your middle school years and cringe in embarrassment.
>>64340509
This. I mean I didn't hate it, I just thought it was kinda cringe worthy. It reminded me of this actually...
