For the record, in my humble opinion, rap is NOT music. It's modern chanting...
Now you're insulting Gregorian monks' music
("Although popular legend credits Pope Gregory I with inventing Gregorian chant, scholars believe that it arose from a later Carolingian synthesis of the Old Roman chant and Gallican chant.")
I imagine King David's "songs" of worship were quite similar
You appropriately used the word "music" because there's obviously MELODY there. I'm certain you could show us an example of real chanting.
Or, better yet, show us some truly genius 17th/18th century central African compositions... on all those instruments they invented.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
