people gotta realise that what you see on tv is not all there is to rap. its like judging metal by listening to linkin park. i mean you dont want people to judge the trance scene by dj sammy?!
anyway Talib Kweli is an awesome artist, if you think about giving good hip hop a try. |

sigh
i still use the term hip-pop cause there's no other way to distinguish it really, most people think hip-hop and rap are the same
and a lot of rap artists call their music hip-hop
idk
anyways...there's still a lot of good out there
check out atmosphere, illogic, heiroglyphics, people under the stairs, cunninlynguists, mos def, josh martinez, k-os, blackstar, ozomatli, jurassic 5, aesop rock, blueprint, a tribe called quest, common, dialated peoples, and last but not least, foreign exchange to name a few
(<3 hip-hop:D)
and as for instrumentals...two names i got for you: dj shadow, rjd2 |

An old acquaintance of mine used to make stuff like that :D I once tried by remixing some Super Nintendo music, and it would have been good had the original track not been better suited to Ambient :p Instrumental is good. In any genre :D |

| I like rap that has meaning and isn't about how much of a pimp he is and telling kids how you can get rich by quitting school and becoming a gangsta. 99% of the mainstream rap is absolutely horrible. Generally though, it's musically too simple to captivate my attention. |

You do realize the stupidity of your statement?
Unfortunately I can't blame you for saying these things as they are a general state of ignorance in the rap scene.
Hip hop is NOT music it is not RAP it is something you do.
But most of all it is a movement that includes Graffiti Breakdancing and Rapping for roots.
Hip hop as a musical genre is a bogus term.
It's also a very sad state of affairs when most of today's rap artists complete degrade the original values of the music and have no knowledge of the history of it. |
