This Is Not Music

CHAD WILLIAM NEWBRY

I have the musical case against rap
And then I will get to the cultural case
Okay
So the musical case against rap
Is that in my view there are three elements to music
There is harmony, there is melody, and there is rhythm
And rap only fulfills one of these
The rhythm section
That there is not a lot of melody and there is not a lot of harmony
And thus it is basically effectively spoken rhythm
And so it's not actually a form of music
It's a form of rhythmic speaking
And thus I beyond the subjectivity of me just not enjoying rap all that much
What I've said before is it's not music
This is not music
It’s a pastor with a sermon
I’m not stopping till I’ve gone global
Reached every person
This is not music
It’s the morning news
I not stopping till I'm bigger than CCN news
This is not music
It’s a chemist in a lab
Steady cooking up soundwaves turn them into plaques
This is not music
It’s a teacher with a class
So put your hands up like you got something to ask
Last job six figures What you know about that?
Money talks loud show me where your mouths at
Young rich and educated what you know about that?
A lot of rappers chasing fame asking where the clouts at?
Fuck your gold I got the dopest vocal chain
Break the mold every time I play the game
Truth be told it starts when you know your aim
So I hold steady always in my lane
I’m in it for the love I’m not in it for the lust
Lately, I’ve been feeling like I’m really on the cusp
Of fucking up the game swear I’m really about to bust
Down these labels doors, cause I’ve really had enough
I got different sides
Some bright some dark
I know I’m gonna shine
Even though I’m in the dark
Daily execution I know that’s the hardest part
Do it for myself cause I know that art is art
This is not music
It’s a pastor with a sermon
I’m not stopping till I’ve gone global
Reached every person
This is not music
It’s the morning news
I not stopping till I'm bigger than CCN news
This is not music
It’s a chemist in a lab
Steady cooking up soundwaves turn them into plaques
This is not music
It’s a teacher with a class
So put your hands up like you got something to ask
Looking for the spark like I’m Edison
Practice what I preach take my medicine
Track every day that the regimen
Rap so hard still a gentlemen
Software engineer to a rapper who’d a thought
Looked in the mirror said it’s time to shoot my shot
Life is what you make it I’ve been
Writing in a google doc
Chewing on my beats
Guess we call that Food for thought
Ball like kyrie don’t think you’ll pass me
Working in a studio cup full of caffeine
I’m the dopest out if you wanna ask me
On my own shit you don’t need to gas me
Family members can’t decide how they really viewing this
When I quit my job they like damn doing this
Knew I had to take my shot really try to do this shit
Living out my dreams life like a lucid trip
This is not music
It’s a pastor with a sermon
I’m not stopping till I’ve gone global
Reached every person
This is not music
It’s the morning news
I not stopping till I'm bigger than CCN news
This is not music
It’s a chemist in a lab
Steady cooking up soundwaves turn them into plaques
This is not music
It’s a teacher with a class
So put your hands up like you got something to ask
