Rap sucks. Being hip hop's retarded cousin, the genre has a lot to live up to, and it fails miserably, save for a few gems. Many rap songs contain crude, blunt sexual references, which contrast starkly with the more artfully presented innuendos present in the far superior rock and roll genre. For instance, you'd be hard pressed to find a rap song that DOESN'T ask its audience to suck and fuck the performer. In the case of rock and roll, the worst Guns n' Roses ever asked of us was to "turn around bitch, I've got a use for you." And the "use" isn't even specified. For all we know Axl and Slash needed to practice their chiropractics. Rap also sucks because asshole drivers blast it in their fancy cars. I can tell they're assholes because they drive fancy cars.
School dances also suck, but largely because of rap, and its inexplicable position as the current most popular genre. (This generalization also likely extends to many house clubs, however being the sheltered youth that I am, I can only assume so.) Literally the only type of music played and dances is rap. Thousands of teenage girls dry hump the night away at homecoming every year within a mire of lyrics about oral sex and ejaculation. I am even beginning to believe they're also oblivious to the fact that their "dancing" looks more like pantomime fucking.
I'll likely be attending my school's homecoming dance, ironically. And if the DJ's take requests, you can bet I'm making mine Black Dog. Heaven forbid you play a song ABOUT dancing at a DANCE.

Rap isn't so much a cousin of hip hop but rather a defining characteristic of the genre.
I know you're specifically referring to popular hip hop which is largely about sex, money, and violence. But don't forget there is plenty of rap that comments on issues of race, class, gender, and sexuality. Sure, this generally isn't the stuff on the airwaves, and certainly isn't being blasted at white, suburban high school dances. But it's still a valuable part of hip hop culture.
That being said, school dances suck, as does the music played at them.
Amen dude amen!
FUCK DANCES
THEY ALL SUCK!
ALL THE SAME EVERY FRICKING YEAR!
