What is it about rap and hip hop when you're high????
I used to predominantly listen to Rock but ever since I started smoking weed I've just started to really really feel rap and hip hop, anything with a good beat really, even when I'm not high. It just speaks to me.
Has anyone else found this and does anybody know any scientific reason behind it???? Is it the beat????
I dunno but I mostly listen to rap anyways and reggae but dont get me wrong, I'll listen to anything as long as it sounds good.
I listen to rap even when i'm not high, but it's always good when ur baked. Southern rap's really good when ur drunk too
Weed makes people chill, reggae is chill music, rap stole some reggae basics.
rap, oldies from the late 50's and 60's, and old school funk are my favorite music
rap disgusts me even more when im high....
why waste ur high time on that meaningless shit
*im fuckin high as shit*
iv been someone who hates rap but lately when im stoned it sounds pretty dam good..
yeah same here, except i'm not high :(Quote:

T.I., that's not rap, that's some kid Warner Brothers paid to dress up nice and pretend to be gangster.
Trust me i can still resist rap when im high...:thumbsup:

if you think that, then you are closed minded, or just have not had good musical experince.
Trust me, meet enough people, there is a band/group, or just one song for you in every style of music.
dear skrappie,
I doubt your are a hip hop artist but if you are, I did not mean to offend you. Please let me rephrase . A LOT of it is meaningless (i.e. "let your chain hang low. let it wobble to the flo)...yeah the artists prolly have a couple meaningful songs. but those are still annoying too..
oh and the only rap song i like when im high is "big poppa" because of that sexy whistle in the beat lol
I listen to some underground rap like immortal technique and jedi mind tricks. The only mainstream stuff i listen to is the old school rap like dre snoop nwa eazy e. beastie boys
I listen to a lot of different music, everything from ACDC to Neil Young to Metallica to Bob Marley to Tchaikovsky to..well, you get the idea. Maybe it's just because I'm old but I just don't get rap. I just don't see how it can even be called music. Most of what I've heard is just some very simple beat played over and over again with someone semi-coherently shouting about "fuckin' hos". Maybe you could call it ghetto peotry or something like that but music?
i like it more when im drunk because i can yell the hilarious ass lyrics and its really funny and offensive.
when im high though i tend to prefer actual good music
i used to hate rap, still hate most of it, mainstream that is, but ever since i started tokin, wen i hear good beat, like sum old school/underground rap, i just cant help but let my head bob:p :pimp:
Oh man i have to listen to rap when im high. Its a must when im tokin big blunts and shit. Anything with a good beat but they gotta have good rhymes/flow or i dont care for em. When im smokin and listen to rap its hard to stop my head from bouncin and feelin it
I love hip-hop :thumbsup:
today i got high and started driving blasting rap music...well 2 hours later im lost in the country somehow lol i was just jammin it sounded so dam good i forgot i was drving sometimes
i like rap only when im high
the only rap i enjoy is the "rough hardcore" not that mainstream rap i like the rap thats all about murder and what not that shits cool
Amen......I think he's the most underrated rapper....he needs more recognition...he's so damn good.Quote:

Real rap has been around forever, just recently big corporations have been pushing it more than usual. Almost all (if not all) "rap" songs that you hear on MTV or assorted corp radio stations are about 1) some dumb bitch, or 2) something incredibly stupid, ie chain hang low.
if you wanna hear some good ass shit go dl some andre nickatina. Hes the best, ive never heard better the way he flows and his beats are hella crazy especially when ur blown as fuck! Get train with no love or my rap world(its trippy in the begging if ur blazed) but yeah i highly reccomend it =D
dude knows what hes talking aboutQuote:

man, if you really listen to the triple 6 you know theyre not serious about the devil shit "ask me if i worship satan, ill send your ass to see him" (know what song thats from? they do it cause it makes people uncomfortable. although not anymore since theyve moved much more towards mainstream. but theres nothing better to listen to when youre high. everyone download now i'm high pt. 3 and listen to it when youre high. i guarentee you will like it, even you haters out there. and smoke if you got it (shit, i could keep going on and on, they have so many great songs about weed that should be listened to when youre blazed.Quote:

As far as rap itself goes, I agree with one that defended rap earlier. Y'all hearin all the wrong artists. Every genre has good and bad artists. Good and bad songs, better or worse. All music is poetry, it's the magic of the sound that relates to your liking that pulls you to it. Obviously there's an alternate effect with some music, lol, but all rap music is not bad. I challange you to pick up CDs from artists like:
Bizzy Bone (solo albums, he has a lil more then 10 out), Dead Prez, Lauryn Hill, Jean Grae, Bone Thugs -n- Harmony (Ressurrection, Art of War), etc. Listen to a different blend of the type pf rap music y'all are complainin about. Saigon, Definately Krayzie Bone(Thug Mentality 1999) Some of these rappers do relate to the message of the volitle side, but i'm specifing songs of other blends that they do incorporate. There's many more worthy of praise artsist, but I ain't gonna keep goin on.
Check it out.
