getting into rap is actually really easy because once you hear a song with a beat that goes sufficiently hard, any preconceived notions you have about why you can't get into hip hop go right out the window and the appeal snaps into place. like I was a fucking obnoxious egghead nerd in high school who would give the old "everything except rap and country" when asked what kind of music I liked but the minute I heard Hard In Da Paint and started vibing I was like ohhhh yeah I get it now
