B) From what I've read, the first musical instrument was actually supposedly the human voice (chants & whatnot), with animal hide drums being the first musical instrument/tool.
One thing I think most musicians take for granted is that music (supposedly) comes from roots in a spiritual/tribal ritual type of thing. Most modern musicians don't seem to make the spirituality-music connection, but when they do, it's generally to a very powerful effect (Jon Coltrane or Jeff Buckley being good examples).

One question...do REAL songs have to be played on guitars by white folks?

Everybody can put together some sounds on a sequencer and/or shout some rude words backed by a record player.

I never bought the pathetic idea of generational rebellion. Lots of kids do, though, and they are the ones that get into hip-hop and stuff like that.
Metal manages to have an everlasting rebellious effect as it gets noisier and noiser while the lyrical content gets more and more satanic and violent. Rap, I cannot see have any way to go to be able to piss off older hip-hop fans, other than simply not being hip-hop anymore.

In retrospect, we sll had some points but nobody was 100% right.
Melody did return. But hip-hop sure didn't die. And if techno/dance may have died to some extent in the 00s (plus it got more melodic), it sure came back with a bang in the form of EDM.
In the age of retro, everything goes round in circles.

Actuslly, yes, modern rap is often more melodic and also based upon originally composed material.
