Is Bob Dylan’s “visions of Joanne” a rap song?


Aside from the content not being about the usual Rap music topics; the form, rhyming, rhythm, and singing are fundamentally the same. Listen to it again fresh with that thought in the back of your mind. Discuss this politely with me if you like, this an open question, not a statement of fact. I’d like to hear different opinions.

Oh geez,  I don't think deadhead had any racist intentions.  Lighten up people.  There are enough real problems to get huffy about.

I don't think that the blues have much in common with rap.  I think rap is a new art form that developed out of computer technology and the desire of people who can't sing to perform.
