When The Prodigy feature Kool Keith as a rapper it's brilliant. When RATM rap to guitar riffs it works better than if he was singing. When some hip-hop artists (like the Beastie Boys) rap it sounds good.

These guys are rapping creatively, whether it's about politics, humour or just daft stuff, it sounds good to the music. But hip-hop annoys me because they waste this brilliant lyrical tool over annoying looped jingles and beats so weak they may as well not bother using them. And they rap about complete bull most of the time, about how well they compensate for their migit penis by wearing tons of gold bling and womanising at every opportunity.


Dude, kool keith is definately hip hop. Beastie boys are hip hop. i thinkyou have your genres confused. rap is the gangstah , man. like Jay-Z P-Diddy, etc.

Read it again, and plug your brain in.

Mainstream sucks, but there is good hip-hop you know. Oh, and no P. Diddy is not gangsta rap. :rolleyes:

Cormega - Bring It Back
Atmosphere - Trying To Find A Balance
Kanye West - Jesus Walks
The Roots - The Seed 2.0 (This is from their last album. Their new one drops this month)
Joe Budden - 10 mins.

:stongue: Good story, why is it always the ugly chicks that do that? Why can't it be the hot ones?

Yes, it's true. Some rap music has great lyrics, but rap itself is just horrible.

It's like talking to someone you know on the street and start rhyming and you got rap music. Maybe get someone to bang his hands on the car and let someone else clap his hands while another person snaps his fingers.
Horrible.

Man shut the fu*ck up! You have just said some of the stupidest i have heard in my life. You and your buddy above have no ing clue. Do you think its easy to flow properly? By flow, I mean rap? If it was that easy every other person would have multi-million dollar contracts. What you fail to realize is that hip-hop/rap has been around for over 20 years, and it is here to stay. Now, I agree that 90% of the mainstream hip-hop/rap is bull, but to label the entire genre as bull is just plain ignorant. In other words you are saying that its the same thing with electronic music/trance. Our very own mainstream blows. Lasgo, Ian Van Dahl, Scooter, Sammy, and Dean.. yet our genre as a whole is awesome. Gabriel and Dresden, Marco V, Deep Dish, Sasha, Sultan, Infusion, Hybrid, Hyper, and many more.. they are all great! They, however are not as mainstream as the artists i listed before them, however, their music is much better. If we go by mainstream, EDM sucks too!! So listen up you in ****. Before you go around making stupid comments like you have just made, get your ass educated. Run DMC, Rakim, KRS-One, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Pharoah Monch, Common, The Roots, Dilated Peoples, Cormega, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Bizzy Bone, Atmosphere, Kanye West, Tupac Amaru Shakur, B.I.G and many more influental artists of the genre are to rap/hip-hop as what those aritsts that make EDM/trance scene good are to our scene. Now your 50cents, your Eminems, your Lloyd Banks', your Ja Rules, Fat Joe's, Puff Daddies, and Nellys are equivalent of your Lasgos, Ian van Dahls, Scooters, Sammys and Deans. Also, the lyrics that those mainstream s spit, talking about RIMS, BITCHES, AND DRUGS.. are similar to what the CHEESE electronic music sings about. In cheese/mainstream music they always and always sing about.. I WASSS WRONGGGGG TO LET YOU GOOO / OPEN UP YOUR ARMS IM COMING / BABY I NEEED YOU / YOU ARE MY PARADISE / YOU ARE MY DREAMS.
So please shut the up and dig for hip-hop/rap just like you dig for good edm/trance music. Go around the mainstream, and find something with heart, and there is alot of stuff you can find.

Here are some examples:

20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Eric B. & Rakim [2001] <-- sums up the work from 1985-2000
Run-D.M.C. - Greatest Hits [2002] <-- work form early 80's up to 2001
KRS-One - I Got Next [1997] <-- listen to the master
2 Pac - Me Against The World [1995] <-- poet at work
Makaveli (2 Pac) - Don Killuminati: 7 Day Theory [1996] <-- masterpiece
Notorious B.I.G - Ready To Die [1994] <-- does this man breathe when he spits?
Bone Thugs - N - Harmony - Creepin' On Ah Come Up [1998] <-- Grammy for this, and how original is this work?
The Roots - Phrenology [2002] <-- another work of art
Talib Kewli - Quality [2002] <-- listen to the flow
Common - Resurrection [1994] <-- whatt?!?!?! listen to how he uses the words and the technique
Kanye West - College Dropout [2003] <-- yeah, these folks know about beats too.. listen to the production quality
Jay-Z - Black Album [2003] <-- yeah this dude is actually a great em cee, but u cant just listen to the singles get the album too..
Cormega - Legal Hustle [2004] <-- bring back hip-hop

Listening to rap is only half a story . The people who listen to rap bullsh*t start acting like the "stars" on TV , such as g-unit , P.diddy , etc. Rap is one of the most successful business among the teens who believe what the rappers are saying . Kids get affected so bad they ruin their lives thanks to fags on TV . They start smoking , thinking killing is not a sin , etc

Therefore , rap is a nonethless BS.

Do us a favor and kill yourself.

Yes hip-hop culture has a big impact on the youth, however, the culture is falsly advertised and marketed. This is all because of the money and due to the fact that it was a culture that originated from a minority. Therefore, THE MAN, blinded the entire race with money and allowed them an opportunity to escape the hardships that 75% of them face, and due to this the money washed up the realness of the culture.

Another thing, u smartass. If hip-hop makes people drink, smoke, kill.. then wtf does edm do? It spreads hiv, usage of ecstasy, homosexuality, and many other things. So please shut the up. I cant believe how ignorant you people are. , im out. bye
Shudder
what you see on mtv is not hip hop. those who think it is are stupid and ignorant
