Speedy deletion

[edit]

I am sick of the speedy deletion out being used.... However recommended it for speedy deletion just gave a blanket statement with no substantiating evidence. Please provided the copyrighted material where it was pulled from so that I can research it and then maybe I will go along with the speedy deletion... otherwise I will assume that the article was just written too well and that is why it was flagged as copyrighted material and I will vote against speedy deletion and recommend that it just be wikified. xerocs 19:56, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

nevermind, I agree with the speedy deletion. It is copyvio material http://www.mp3.com/Pop-Rap/genre/577/subgenre.html Sorry. Thanks. xerocs 19:59, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Great, edit conflict XD Circeus 20:03, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, is that like a frustrated smiley... or a constipated one? xerocs 21:44, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I call it "the other :-)". My frustrated smiley is ">.<" (anime smiley). Circeus 22:58, 12 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Change target to hip pop

[edit]

The target page of this redirect should be hip pop, rather than hip hop. The hip pop article says "...is commonly called pop rap in the US". Adabow (talk · contribs) 03:00, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That assertion is actually unsourced, and when we had a separate pop rap article it was deleted for precisely that reason. I'd rather simply remove the non-Japan stuff from hip pop. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward: not at work) - talk 11:53, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this article still around?

[edit]

Shouldn't this be deleted by now? Typing in pop rap redirects to hip hop music anyway, so I don't see the purpose in this, if nobody is going to read it anyway. --R3troguy420 (talk) 13:18, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Most of it seems to be random, arbitrarily included, or just plain not true. Certainly needs a clean up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikki Lee 1999 (talkcontribs) 01:08, 8 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pop-rapPop rap – All other rap genres don't use hyphens and considering that music platforms like Spotify refer to this as "Pop Rap", I think we should move it to follow the same naming convention and what the industry uses.

Why does melodic rap not have its own Wiki page and why does the history of Pop Rap on this page completely disregard 2013-2020+'s wave of Melodic Rap?

[edit]

Is it just because everyone has slept on real legit innovative hip hop for so long that you essentially do not believe it deserves to exist? What exactly would you call Young Thug, Future, and the millions of offshoots of rappers from 2013-2020 and beyond that breach far beyond "Pop Rap" (YoungBoyNBA for example) that are making Melodic Rap? Why doesn't it have its own genre page, or at least an entire section in this page?

You say "also known as melodic rap" when you don't even reference the actual music from the 2010s that led to that terminology (in the modern sense.) 2601:988:180:1010:A914:D345:7309:FD11 (talk) 22:19, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
