Rape

Rap music:
-degrades the english language
-Promotes tagging and vandalism
-degrades women
-Implies postivity to primitive force (look at any metal cd, and youll see an imaginative cover with interesting artwork, look at a hip hop Cd, and youll see a pissed off nigra wanting to fight)
-Shifts values to "bling" and expensive shoes which leads to theft
-Promotes Rastafrian culture, which tries to legalize weed

Rap can be made by ANYBODY, a preset drum machine is all you need to make primitve music and get signed to a record label. If youve been shot, thats credible and prefered to hype your image, just like growing up on the "street"
The lyrics are simple, the sentences dont need to be related, just whatever can ryhme is fine. They dont even have to make sense, just as long as it sticks to an even flow. And sometimes, rappers will get lazy and mispronounce words to rhyme.
Now some of you guys are gonna say "omg racist", but more thn half of all nigra music is sold to whites. No other genre of music promotes more negative values than hip hop, and as it spreads toward different regions, it infects the native population like a fungus.

There is NO talent in rap, so next time, whe your downloading music, get yourself a king crimson, dark tranquility, symphony x or non-hip hop album. Your brain will thank you for not degenerating it into a pile of primtive processing jello.

Lets discuss

Roger, I tell you what, that's right you crazy son of a bitch.

Can't spell CRAP wihtout RAP.

Not all rap sucks... Only modern "gangsta" shit

If I had to choose between rap and country, I'd probably choose rap.

listen to:
cinematic orchestra feat. roots manuva - all things to all men

what rap *should* be like

>>4
I'd make the same choice.

You're making a big generalization about rap...  Not all rap is Gangster Rap.

Ok, then gangster rap is what I don't want to hear. If anything, rapping about something else, if that's even possible, instead of nigga, this and pimp, ho, slut, cash, money that.

Rap sucks ass.

The only rap I like is some songs by the Black Eyed Peas, because it is actually really funky.

There really is three kinds of rap - 'Old School', 'Gangsta', and 'Alternative'. Alternative > Gangsta.

Only good gangsta is Busta.
rofl'd @ all ur vidios, would buy again! (AMAZONREEDR)

You should go to Malaysia. They make religious rap, something like  how great Allah is, etc. lah.

E|\/|INE|\/|

I like the angry, but i dislike everything you've said.

i only like "old school" . it sounds more electronic, funky... it's better than nowadays rap.

Crunk is funny.



To laugh AT.

>>14
WHAT?!?!?!

You asswipe, that's just mainstream rap.

bix nood muhfugen

Instead of listening to the shit >>1 enjoys, pick up some Jazz next time you want some nigger music.

I like a grand total of... 3 rap/hiphop songs. I think only 1 of them was by a black person, I should probably google for a pic of fatboyslim (It's a Wonderful Night, bitches)

Anonymous....well said.

Don't be a closed-minded dumb ass.  There are good artists.  I don't like mainstream artists because:

Music is about expressing yourselves.  After hearing about how much of pimps these people are, and how much they like ass, it gets VERY, VERY old.

It all starts to sound the same.

A lot of it getting dated, and a little repetitive.  Hearing the same bass line, and drum beat for 5 minutes is a little numbing.

There ARE good artists.  Check out a local show if you want.  I've seen some great Hip-Hop artists live.  And it sometimes has MEANING. And sometimes they actually what they're talking about.

Unlike Mr. West.

And I quote, "Bush doesn't care about black people." - Kanye West

:[

One last reason I dislike hip-hop:

After all of that trouble in the earlier days with racism and all of that shit, they're making their race look retarded and putting all of Martin Luther King Jr.'s work to shame.

That sucks, huh?

I'm done ranting.

>>23
exactly what i think

and their use of nigger makes it so hard not to say nigger around them, and when you do they get a gun and shoot you.

Nujabes has convinced me that not all rap music sucks.

so music that encorages violence, drugs and anti-social behiviour is good amirite? also why do niggers call each niggers but white people aren't allowed to say nigger, nigger.

I listen to all rap fuck you honkies who gather on the internet to bitch about how rap sucks. I cant force myself to listen to rock that shit sounds like nails across a blackboard.

Fuck Rock.....  Rap > All

SAGE...Bitches

What is art? What is music? Is there a defined cast for these things?

>>29
Not really. In reality there's just a group of chosen people, a committee who decides what is art and what's not.

Yeah like this fag.

>>27

you mean like punk lol

Black people started saying nigger amongst themselves to lessen the effect it had. If you constantly call each other bitch in a friendly way with all your friends, when someone says it hatefully, it's not going to have such a big effect. But it only lessens it to a degree, I'd still get mad if someone called me bitch.

>>33
What the hell are you talking about? This thread is like dead.

>>33
LOL, try saying it and see what happens. It hasn't lessened the effect, just redirected it back at us.
>>31
What art is is always debateable. >>1 Is saying that it lacks any positive merits, which really isn't as debateable.

>>35
Maybe if you could read, you'd realize I said you still can't go up and call them that. They do it umongst themselves to lessen the impact when a racist fuck actually does it, and plus it gets old to some people to keep calling them a name when they use it as a normal word.

Damn whites shut up. You not black, I am, and I want to fight a white person everytime they say nigga. And music is music, art is art quit bitchin.

So "nigga" is a bad word, but it isn't?

Hey man, I agree that racism and careless words are invisible knives we can do without, but you really need to do something about that mainstream hiphop the rest of the world is hearing. The men are chanting about crime, like drugs, killing, and prostitution, and how their life sucks. The women are singing about how much they hate men, and how great glittery things are.

You don't have a problem with the kind of values that you're pounding into impressionable young black men and women? Normally I give a fuck all about "values", but you seriously seem hell-bent on hating each other and racing to self-destruction.

And then you wonder why people look at you funny. We hear this stuff too, you know?

i like to touch my willie

I sorta started to agree with you until you spread all types of shit about the rastaman

the earlier late 80's-early 90's pre-gangsta rap was the best

until it was killed by companies suing artists over use of the samples

it was the pre-internet intellectual property war and rap lost

that is why today's rap sucks ass

i am a nigra

IT'S HAMMER TIME!

This is a picture of the CEO of Interscope, publisher of 50 Cent's records. Interscope is owned and operated by Universal Music Group. The CEO of UMG is this man, named Doug Morris:

And yet you say black people need to do something about the "mainstream hiphop the rest of the world is hearing"?

You, sir, need a reality check.

And yet you say black people need to do something about the "mainstream hiphop the rest of the world is hearing"?

Sure. After all, it's always the blacks singing that crap, and it's gobbled up whole by black audiences and by some whites. Hiphop is a product of black singers and black culture. YOU made it, and the fact that a money-mad white guy is peddling it for his bottom margins doesn't change that fact.

If there was a black CEO running the show, should I tell him to stop making shitty country? No, because country is produced by white trailer trash. He's just a mechanism, since he doesn't give a shit what it is as long as it makes $$$.

Fact: Hip-Hop is done better by other races

copy & pasta

The word pirahna, is all I can think of that rhymes with marijuana

Marijuana MUST be legalized.
