Hoover: Rap Sucks and It’s Dirty

hoover lily white ads.jpeg
Deeming their audience too white and probably not all that rhythmic, The Consumerist passed on this hot new MP3 one of their readers extracted off a Virginia radio station. Although at first it might sound like a new Lil’ Scrappy track, the swish of a vacuum quickly starts sucking away the Dirty South-like lyrics and a lily white voice-over cheerfully states:

“Life may never be clean, but with Hoover your floors can be.”

So basically a vacuum company is now coming to the rescue to clean up Hip Hop, because you know, it’s so muddy and filthy, and what better way to sell vacuum cleaners then equate it with the grimy residue of rap music.

  1. Rap music is about Ghettos and stupid shit! Fuck the ghetto! Fuck Rap! Listen to Heavy Metal. It has real instruments and real lyrics

  2. The vast majority of rap music does indeed suck. It’s the hair metal of our times. The underground acts like Immortal Technique and Jedi Mind Tricks are some of the few keeping things fresh.

  3. Rup sucks, all right. It’s useless, and come to think of it, it’s not really music. I mean, where’s the music? It’s beat-based, and that makes it sound like tribal wardances and other barbaric stuff. But you know what, even heavy metal and all that is as barbaric. It’s more arty, definitely, more skills involved, but you want music? Listen to classic rock… The Beatles, The Eagles, Led Zep, Pink Floyd, The Doors… your heavy metal sounds as bad as rap compared to these bands.

  4. I totally agree with you cuz rap is just about violence, drugs, sex and other bad crap and how to do it. Rock music may also talk about violence, drugs and bad stuff, but how to prevent/deal with it instead of doing it, so I like rock music and heavy metal better than rap cuz at least rock doesn’t insult women at all. Well, I’ll say it again: I’M A RAP HATER; DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!! Just say it loud and proud and clear!

  5. Rap is the coolest music of the 21st century and people are just being jealous because 95 per cent of youth on this planet listen to rap.
