What a bloody stupid question . . .

I don't like Rap music, so I just don't listen to it.

There are some patient answers above. Personally, I love them and have just bought a D12-28 Martin and it's a beaut.

Like a respondent above, I use it only for specific numbers where it can be played very softly to give a deep background accompaniment, or pick out certain strings to underline the melody - that all with a soft flatpick.

Also, it can be finger-picked. Mine is tuned two semi-tones down, although it doesn't need to be.

Lovely instrument. So, if you don't like them, exercise your democratic right to ignore them.
