bone thugs n harmony
word son, word
You haven't heard real rap until u've heard BTNH
Go to a rap concert and tell me that's not music. Are you saying that world music, with simply drums beating isn't expression of music as well? Not all music is made to be conceptual art, and musical masterpieces and isn't a box-like definition. Some music is simply made to dance, get lifted, jump up and down. Music is boundless, as long as you have a beat, you are expressing yourself musically.Quote:

Time to face it Rap takes Little to NO talent to do, hell i could rhyme if i really wonted to.
I think rap is the same as in any other genre there is good and bad. The best stuff is the old school shit. The last good cd I heard was Common which came out last year I think.
there are just as many gay emo rock bands out there that sing about the same gay bullshit about how their lives are so depressing when they are usually some punk ass from the suburbs who had an easy life and most of them dont write their own lyrics eitherQuote:

Any rapper that doesn't write their own shit should be trampled by a rabid buffalo and thrown off a tall building onto a disease-ridden bed of spikes.Quote:

so yeh, orignal poster is a narrow minded fuck.
i guess they better thow down 50 cent, dr. jay and most of all them rappers awayQuote:

50 cent's first album was actually DECENT. Now he is all comercial and a money eating bitch! KMK is the shit. They rap about real shit that's goin on in life. Also, good shit to chill to when you're high or just chillin. "positive vibes" is a very lifting song by KMK. They are the best.
eminem is an OG, he did his hting became a famous white rapper, his new shit sucks but he's making tons of cash on 50 and his crew gay-unit.............................oh did you know eve of ruff ryders signed to shady/aftermath
DangerDoom are tight.
Which is like MF Doom and Danger Mouse.
...
if you hate rap is b/c you haven't been through no struggle. people like what they can relate to, and if you're listening to something you don't relate to at least give effort for those who did something some of us cant do. Again theres rap out there that fucks it up for rest of us by using simple minded pimp/hoes/cash/ lyrics and thats why i dont listen to radio. Strickly underground and nothing but the deep shit.

I really don't like rap, but MF Doom is amazing. His album "Madvillainy" as Madvillain is one of the greatest albums of all time.
canibus
nas
jay-z
beanie sigel
jada kiss
az
just to name a few true lyrical story tellers of today.
at least rap is creative but (ALL)rock on the other hand requres no singing talent nor creative lyrics. play a guitar + drums and scream about suicide or some depressing shiit. that would definately ruin my high :rasta: ya dig.
you can't forget the the father of story teller and legend Slick Rick.
Radio rap sucks. Some underground is pretty good tho.
Radio rap sucks but you need Satilite radio...i have Sirius and they play the best music
Most underground shit is good, download songs by any of the following if u want Mind-Blowing rap:Quote:

Thats cool.
Hey faboulous if you could be a rapper if you wanted too.
Then whY dont you.
cause you cant.
You act like making beats is easy...try it and see if you make a half decent beat.
oh and, anyone can put random drum beatings voiced over with screaming...they call it heavy metal.
Rap&Reggae 4 life.
iu reckon Immortal Technique has GOOD rap, because its a different perspective on modern days events not all shit that sounds cool
this sterotypical idiot pisses me off, dont open your mouth when you dont know what the fuck your talkin about. yeah mainstream is fake and some is ghost writtenQuote:

oh yeah after you listen to them tell me you dont need any talent
wow stop fucking flaming the poor kid for saying rap sucks...its his opinion.
Well thats your opinion but rap speaks to me just like what ever genre of music you like speaks to you. But I'm not biased though, I give all types of music a chance, unlike you.
There's Rap and Hip Hop, and then there's the Game. True rap artists don't play the Game, they live beats and life and make up for bling with science and knowledge. That krazy drunk stuff is just shit, Master P and all that. 50 cent had a decent debut but whoah does his new stuff suck. MF Doom is the new prince of hip-hop. And Jay-z is not the king, he's like the Godfather of the Game. MF Doom.....mmm FOod???? Damn that shit is hot. Of course I live in the corn rows, like the plant, and i don't listen to much anymore cuz if i wanted to hear good hip hop i would have to go search thru piles of shit to find a few jewels like aceyalone....MF Doom...man...that guy is sooooogooooodd im gonna spin some right now peace
mainstream rap sucks cos u buy it.. lil 12 year old white boys think its cool to promote silly prickts like 50 cent and all the other mainstream JUNK, and people who pump positive messages like roots, common, mos def, talib kweli, last emporer, de la soul, dangerdoom, Zion I, and many more go unplayed on TV and Radio cos these lil children buy the "gangster stuff"
Mainstream rap can suck it don't bother me, id rather listen to the underground guys who make MUCH better music but get hardly any airplay just so all the little kids can't ruin them.
Three words. Funk Master Flex. Two more. Run DMC. And three more.... Grand Master Flash. Go listen to their tracks and then come back and tell me that rap sucks.
"Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge....I'm trying not to loose my head!"
WOW....WELL I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR FRUSTRATION WITH RAP. MY OLD MAN SAYS HE JUST DOES NOT GET IT....but to make a comment like yo did that anyone can do it and its full of gay lyrics is absurd. now new commercial rap does suck. but guys like 2pac,tech 9,fugees, i could go on they are and were poets. now if you ask me some of that zeplin and pink floyd and the rest of those dinosaurs are just played out...have you ever listened to todd rungren....for an old rocker he is moving with the times,, his latest album has some rap on it. i bet if your old ass could understand the lingo and could compute things faster you might enjoy ~rap~
An 4 The Yeag, you are desented of slaves ya dick, ya grandfather was a waster, he was potato licking scumbag, that cam from a bog, only the poor and weak went ta Usa, the rich and goodness is still ere, we jus weeded out the lowest in socity and exported them, so u are shit hahaha ya knob, it small minded people like u that make americans a hated race, keep lickin bushes hole ya fool
what the fuck did i write that was so awful it got deleted,..thats bullshit!!!!!
some rap sucks just like some punk or rock or heavy metal sucks, its not the entire genre thats bad its just one or a few bad singers, rapper or whatever... i think imma stick to my slipknot and mudvayne though...
Anything you hear on the radio nowdays basically is for people who don't want to learn, or have insight. That includes all genres (rock, rap, punk, r&b). Stop listening to the radio, and start investigating music, and seeing what YOU like. The radio is for people who want to be popular in high school, and people who like to dance. Good Rap exists mostly outside of mainstream rap. If you want to hear good rap, check out these guys:
Atmosphere, Jedi Mind Tricks, KRS-One, Rakim, Afrika Bambataa, Run DMC, Biz Markie, Chubb Rock, Haiku d'etat, Wu-Tang, The Roots, Digable Planets, MF Doom, De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, (2pac, Biggie, Big L, Big Pun, &; the ODB RIP), Nas, The Artifacts, Outkast, Pharoahe Monch &; Prince Po, Common, Jeru the Damaja, Afu-Ra, Gangstarr, J-Live, Busta Rhymes, The Fugees, Redman, Madlib, Xecutioners, Peanut Butter Wolf, Beastie Boys, and Jay-Z, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Bahamadia, Matisyahu, Yellow Man, and, that's about it for good rap now-days, forgive me if i forgot some importnat people, but I'm just pulling this out of my head real fast.
^good list
anyone who even questions the quality of rap music needs to listen to one cd:
nas - illmatic
all music has seen a general decrease in quality over the years the same way tv shows, movies, and video games have.. naturally, people run out of ideas..
i totally agree.:thumbsup:Quote:
