Alright KidViciou$, I'll play your game.

I HATE Rap. I HATE Hip-Hop. I think everything in the last five years has been absolute crap, done by worthless thugs that need to all die a death in one big East vs. West showdown.

That being said...I *can* listen to Older Rap. And I will give this a try.

Immortal Technique = good rap
id tell everyone to listen to him just to give it a try but there's no point...because no matter what i say...everyone has it stuck in their heads that rap = 50 cent talking about a damn candy shop (hope someone shoots...again...and for good this time)
technique raps about...well you know what...i wont even say anything...just listen for yourself...but if you're too closed-minded and think all rap is the same then...well thats your opinion and we can agree to disagree

Well, I'm here. I came in. I think rap is crap.


My response to anyone wanting me to listen to any rap is, "what's the name of the guitar player?"

some rap is ok, some hip hop is ok, some metal is ok, but no one can beat jazz.
