tweak, you should check out Ugly Duckling. Also, Justice System (their old album, Rooftop Soundcheck is awesome, but hard to find).

 

[Danman]

Indeed, my friend and I attempt to rap to it during work. Very amusing.

Nope...

 

[yoda291]

rap = the suck.

 

[agnitrate]

No. Why do the least talented of all musicians tend to be the most popular?

Teenagers rarely buy music based on how good it actually is.

Very true. I guess I'm fortunate in this sense that I never had cable while I was at home so I couldn't see who the musician du jour was

People don't like to think. If something is intellectually stimulating, where you actually have to think a little and concentrate a bit to get something out of it, they won't like it. They want instant gratification. Rap and Rock are both so popular because the beat is slapped across your face, that pulse never changes, and it's very simple and very easy to digest.

Rap is pretty highly overrated, but there are some good artists. Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Dr. Dre, A Tribe Called Quest, Puff Daddy (or P. Diddy or whatever the fvck he's called nowadays) are all quite listenable.

 

[Brutuskend]

In a word, NO.

 

[Aves]

Yes.

 

[thawolfman]

Some.

 

[ElFenix]

kinda sorta maybe

<--- noncommital
