why do people in their rap cars have to make so much noise?

i dont know any music genre that does this. never Alice in Chains. never Solange Knowles. its always someone with rap music. playing it all loud because they think the whole block wanted to hear it. Class or work early in the morning? sucks for you. newborn baby? too bad. heres more rap music!

They do it over here in Puerto Rico too, mostly with Reggaeton. The activity has been dying down recently but in the late 90's-early 00's you could hear them all the time.

I feel you op.

Sometimes I think they purposefully remove the dampening material in the trunk so everyone on the block can enjoy the rattle produced by their sweat subs.

I hear a trunk rattling from excessive bass and go "man that poor guy must be deaf".

you all should go to the Caribbean. They have these things called "reggae buses" that are these vans that people use as taxis. They drive around blasting reggae music. The nice ones are lined with black lights on the inside. They're hella cheap too and a great way to get around.

Because they are terrible, terrible people. Same goes for playing music loudly on their phones instead of using earbuds.

My car has an expensive speaker system in it (previous owner) and I do play my music loudly, but never enough that you'd hear it down the street.

yeah....


but to answer the question, rap is all about the bass. Most other genres aren't. At least, not the ones that are super popular.

And that bass is what you'll hear over similar volumes of treble.

But you need a special sound system to produce trunk-rattling decibels like that. For example, if I turned the radio to 99jams and turned the volume way up (I listen to music really loud already), you wouldn't be able to hear all that bass outside of my vehicle if my windows are rolled up.

you know who else is a douche? Ice cream man with his strident, piercing pedophile imagery evoking jingles.
