Who the fuck listens to this shit?

it's true

and the youth play it so loud they can barely hear me when I shout to get to off my lawn

Socrates was right :/





instead of complaining about music why not create some?

Love this.


(And I can fucking play it too you dorks).

We are the creators

ICE snatched up 21 Savage today

I'm tired of gangster rap totally.

I'm not interested in lyrics about busting caps in somebody's head or "slanging" drugs.
Sick of hearing the same stupid concept of "I'm Bad and headed for life in prison".

I always fine it amusing when hard core rappers rap about busting caps and then turn around and tell us now to download music illegally.

The second one had a decent beat, decent music and decent pre-teen rapper. The first one had to have been signed when the agency rep was stoned. The music, if you can call it that, was beyond juvenile and didn’t go with the rapping. It’s as if someone heard both, said they sucked, but put them together and people are dumb enough to think it’s great.

I still say that the only good rap is copying the origins of rap. Talk about injustice, police brutality, racism and discrimination. Talk the truth of being black in America. Tell us the truth in song.

I don’t care if you cap an ass, shot the nig*a in da head, kill baby mommas or put five k up your nose. Use rap to tell the world about things they won’t believe. Don’t go glorifying jail or rape or drugs or murder. Tell stories and educate us.

You quit school to work. No skills or talent but a decent singing voice. You can rap and quickly learned scales and writing. You aren’t stupid, you just didn’t have the opportunities to learn more and study. You worked for money for school clothes and lunch. Your mom works two jobs and four siblings go to school. You cook, clean, shop, work and go to school. You quit to work more hours. You’re good at writing lyrics and rapping. You write about working for a future and not drug dealing. Your songs inspire others to write, rap, produce and earn a legal living.

Bring back educational rap. You needn’t be black to rap. Eminem, Pitbull, Vanilla Ice (???), and a few others aren’t black but rap well, write well, and their lyrics are real. Vanilla Ice could rap but not write but he portrayed himself as being black until he was seen. He had a few decent songs but stole parts of a Queen song.

Sugarhill Gang gets forgotten too often.

People say rap is for no talent singers. I say there’s more than meets the eye. Then again, people say adult websites are easy to build and sell. You could fill a country with people who thought that and failed.

Koffee is 18 and she's baddass. First time Chronixx heard her he knew she was gonna blow up, and she is.

As to the first track, uh, that is Vybz Kartel. Nothing else needs stating. But I will, his track honors the history of the genre with samples of Supercat lyrics

btw this is dancehall and reggae, not hip hop

also totally got the vapours when Sarettah posted something with a beat

=)

Oh, didn’t look closely at the video to see the gender. All I saw was the hair being braided. She looks fifteen in that video.

Dance music I can see because of the beat. Definitely not hip hop or hip hop done badly. Never heard reggae like that and in my grade school days I was into reggae. Ziggy in later years, Fun Boy Three earlier. Damn, haven’t heard them in years. The Specials were the original group but more pop music. Not solely reggae though; they combined it with dance and pop.

See, my amnesia only affects the last ten years! I’m going back to sleep with memories of the 70’s and 80’s in my head

Deadmau5 is a genius.

worst time for music

I was thinking the same thing about Maroon 5. It's the most irrelevant, harmless, nutless music the NFL could find. Adam Levine should be ashamed of himself for brining this shit to the world. But there's plenty of music that's not shit...it's just that you won't hear it unless you look for it.

That's what inspired this thread. The half time show came on and I was like WTF is this shit, this is the best they can do? A far cry from when Gwen Stefani and Sting tore it up in 2003.

The stage should have melted after this never to be stepped on again.
