1. yes i believe that rap and hip-hop are poetic expressions. most songs rhyme, have many similies, metaphors and symbolism all put together to something that flows. Who's to say that a rapper's method of expression is not poetic?
2.this kind of music expresses litereary characteristics such as repetition, rhythm, similies, metaphors, structure, and symbolism, almost all of them depending on the song!
3. im a thematic critic, i truly enjoy trying to figure out the underlying theme and meaning of the song. i dont believe a song has to be deep to be poetic, or full of structre and precision, as long as there is that element of emotion and expression i can apreciate it. :)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I agree with your comment about "as long as there is that element of emotion and expression...."
