"Whatever' is voted the most irritating word in the English language.
Absolutely right.

If it's all the same then there is no basis for a value judgement and it can't be "good". Entirely appropriate that it came from rap culture.
Maybe it was meant to be ironic, like the use of the N-word in rap music. If so, it has taken on a life of its own. The audience didn't get the joke.
