whys rap good?

why dont you just admit that you were wrong? or you could try to somehow bend what i said so it fits in with your small, racist, closed-minded view of the world...

loser.

 

RE: and just what do you know about rap? you've said it yourself that you don't listen to anything that was made after 1979.

Huh?

 

But there's only one problem with that: You generalized a music type as "black music".

You fucked up.

(sorry, had to chime in for that!)

 

citrus_seas only listens to music made before 1980.

 

So in other words, dude attributed someone else's words to me?

 

He wasn't even talking to you.

 

No, but he seems to be chasing me around a lot.

Apparently, because I think basketball is boring and rap is racist sexist and homophobic drivel, I'm a racist.

Weird.

 

And I'll be the first to tell you that I don't respect those "rappers". I'm mainly interested in political hip-hop, which really has nothing to do with the "gansta" lifestyle. (that includes homophobia, sexism, etc.)

And, uh, I think basketball is boring as well.

 

I thought "Consolidated" was considered Industrial, not rap *poke*

 

I don't like watching basketball games...not any that were played and aired after 1979!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! Just kidding...just thought i'd piss you guys off...And on another note, i'm looking for some good bands from recent years to listen to...just to let all of you guys know that.

 

the consolidation of words, you mean?

 

I take back my previous statement. There is some good hip hop out there, one of my favorite albums of the past 5 years is Deltron 3030. And Im sure I'll get some shit for this, but I like ICP and Twiztid also. Hey, Im from the mid-west, I grew up listening to those guys and they've never sold out and changed their style. Juggalo love!

 

why dont you just stop hassling me bassist_reid

 

Because you never address my points...

It's really a good indication of your character, though!

 

ok just to please you

what points would you like me to address?

 

RE: why dont you just admit that you were wrong?

I'm not wrong. You, on the other hand, are a moron.

So there's ONE band that doesn't use a boring metronome or some sample from some James Brown song, raps about being gay, HIV+ and positive and uplifting. This does NOT mean that rap in general isn't ignorant bigoted trash.

Now shut up.

 

Let us dont start about the message that is given in the music.Hiphop is the only music genre along with some Reggae that contains message in its lyrics , every other genre is made for shaking heads and butts.

But again , you are proving my point when I talked about closed minded people, The MTV that you watch didnt talk about the Stop The Violence Movement , it didnt talk about HipHop decleration of Peace , didnt talk that HipHop will be considered as a CULTURE in the year 2006 under the agreement of the United Nations.

Therefore , I dont blame those people who hate HipHop , since HipHop is the most known music genre right now .I can sit and argue with you for 365 days and 366 if its a leap year , but there is no sense in having a conversation with someone who dont gives an ear to the truth.

 

Jesus christ man, you can't go back a page or two to see what's been going on?

You said:

was your definition of "black music".

Why, if I may, did you generalize an entire genre of music as "black music"?

 

i was just saying that ppl are either black and white and that considering that most rap is produced by black people, that soul and the first chuck berry style rock and raggae was when i thought music by black people was good. At the end of the day thats also when white music was good for my tastes. dont understand what else im supposed to say

 

RE: The MTV that you watch didnt talk about the Stop The Violence Movement ,

"Yo, peep dis. Vi'lence, is bad, man. Listen to me. Cause I'm cool. I'm from da projeks, I pimped some hos and shot some hatahs dead, now dat dat makes me a role model, I kin say to you little kidz, don't pick up dat gun."

"Thanks, Freshy-Q, a badly needed message there. And now back to the videos."

"ALL A N*GGA NEEDS IS A B*TCH AND A GAT! ALL A N*GGA NEEDS IS A B*TCH AND A GAT! ALL A N*GGA NEEDS IS A B*TCH AND A GAT! ALL A N*GGA NEEDS IS A B*TCH AND A GAT!"

RE: it didnt talk about HipHop decleration of Peace ,

No, that's called a CEASE-FIRE.

RE: didnt talk that HipHop will be considered as a CULTURE in the year 2006 under the agreement of the United Nations.

Yeah, and Klingon is considered a language under Unicode. Does that give THAT legitimacy, too?
