a bro? :confused:

I don't think there are many rappers posting on this tech forum. Might want to check out some rap forums or something ?
ok... 'a person of African American ancestry'?

Yeah you're right there might not be any rappers here... but I don't want to check out rap forums.

Wouldn't the term 'bro' be just as offensive as the n word ? It's a racially discriminating term, and if you are white, I highly doubt many 'bros' would appreciate you calling them the n word.

for the purposes of this thread let's just assume i'm just not African American.

In that case I'm pretty sure the majority of people out there who would normally take offense to the word would still take offense, even though you are claiming you were just rapping a song.

Ok, so serious question. Do you think any of the ghetto / street culture thugs have moved onto tasers, or are they still just using guns / bats / whatever they can find ?

Alright so here's the deal. I'm a rap fan, I have listened to rap for years. I grew up listening to Detroit stations and went to a high school where we listened to rap & hip hop in addition to pretty much everything else but country. ok enough background

Do you think rappers would be pissed that when I'm singing along to their tunes, I'm dropping N-bombs when they do it? If I'm rocking out to some Jay-Z and I belt out a "I SHIT ON MY awesome dude!" (actual lyric now, don't be hatin) and he walks around the corner, is he going to bust a cap in my ass or just bust some mad freestyle?

if you've ever seen How High, you already know the answer to this.
I have seen that... but I don't seem to remember it too clearly...

if you aren't black, you get punched in the face if any black people are around when you say it.

You need to get a sound system up in there! Gotta rattle the thing till the bolts fall off ya know.

I put new speakers in my car a while back. Some nice Polk Audio in mine...just speakers, no sub or anything. They sound really good for just that.
