I'm sure that many people say the same about punk bands, or pop music, or ambient music, or classical, etc. Your statement just further demonstrates your ignorance.

There is a huge variety of rap artists out there, with some genuine talent - my favorite still, even though I'm not a Christian, is John Reuben. DMX is another good one. To typify an entire genre with such a fascinating history is foolish.

You need to loosen up and go back to your lack-of-uptightness Rallispec days. :p

BTW...IMHO...many rap, punk, death metal, and pop "artists" are just a bunch of loser with no talent trying to mooch off of previous artist's success and make a quick buck and some fame. They account for about 90% of the above mentioned genres.

i agree w/ zakath...u can't just go around bashing rap music.....a lot of rap songs are very very lyrical and creative....a lot of rappers are very creative and poetic w/ their words....i personally don't listen to rap....i'm more into alternative rock..punk rock......don't listen to those mindless "bling bling" types though...those are teh suck...

Yes, those ones are very much teh suck.

First statement... yeah, I need to lighten up sometimes. Just irritates me when brazen ignorance is displayed in a thread... which I suppose should mean I'm irritated all the time. Nah... yeah, I'll take a chill pill.

*takes chill pill*

Whoaaa.... that's a good squishee. :p

Second statement... very true. Gotta love the modern music industry.

LordMaul~ If I ever become a rapper I'll be sure to shoot you first and get off murder charges with a misdemeanor because I did the human race a favor.

i like DMX. I loved 2pac. Rap was never the same after him. Its the mindless dribble factor that is so prominent in rap (and rock now) these days that has turned me somewhat off of it, somewhat.

That dumba55 who sings about his Nike shoes "i got 2 pair' or whatever is a perfect example. who the FCK sings about shoes (unless its Run DMC with adidas, now that was classic sh*t).

True. To be a true rapper, he would have to be poppin' caps all up in this bitch.
