Finally, even if its just over the internet, I am with people who hate the song as much as I do. I can't beleive this is what mainstream rap has come to, and I can't believe people actually listen to it thinking it is a song worth listening too.
It is seriously horrible and I bet soulja boy or whatever is laughing at all the idiots who bought his CD and like this song while he deposits another million into his bank account...or blows it on pointless gangsta stuff to display in his mansion.
Holy shit.... I just found out that Soulja Boy is telling his fans to buy at least three copies of his album and if people buy more then they will be on his "Top Friends" on his myspace! What a fucking idiot....is that even legal?
I hear ya 40oz.
I'm still listening to Fear of a Black Planet, Low End Theory, and The Predator... It was nice when hip hop as a genre still had something interesting to say...
The whole Southern rap genre kind of annoys me. My ex gave me a copy of Paul Wall The People's Champ, which is a neat album with some good beats and all, but one day I was listening to it and was just suddenly OVER it. The lyrics are... ehhh... not much. When you sit it next to shit that came out in the early 90s (1990 =release date for FOABP) and STILL has a contemporary political message, as well as SICK fucking beats, it pales in comparison. I think that's the difference between pop music and rap.
Souljah Boy is POP, not rap. It comes stamped with an expiration date right on the box. Or it SHOULD.
I'm telling you, soulja boy is a genius who realized a majority of people were stupid so he threw some bullshit into the market and using his gangsta image made it look cool enough to be picked up by mainstream record labels (who probably took some convincing to even sign him. He probably told them his about his quasi-social experiment that could get them all rich) and boom, millionaire over night, fed by people who like annoying songs as long as 'they gangsta'.
And I too miss real rap/hip-hop stinky attic. There is still some out there if you look hard enough...Atmosphere and Aseop rock for example.
Respect to both of you! A few of my favourites...

Now all of those guys are REAL lyricists.
hey stinky you shouldn't give up on southern hip hop. There is still plenty of good stuff out there, such as UGK (RIP Pimp C), devin the dude, outkast, goodie mob etc. A couple of months ago I saw del the funky homosapien and devin the dude share the stage. It was incredible. Made me want to be a hip hop star
I dont know, I think that stupid Superman song is worth bitching about...and I wouldn't even call it bitching, bitching is more like complaining with no hope of gaining anything we are mutually hating it.
Oh I forgot, mirth and hilarity is not allowed here. Nor is giggling.Quote:
