I say it burns rapidly. The school kids always told me it exploded.

It burns rapidly. There's stuff on wikipedia if you want the full explanation of what flame front speed makes something an actual explosive. Tell them to read up.

Smokeless is a propellant and its burn rate accelerates as pressure increases. Lord Black is considered a low velocity explosive.
