Does anyone here like Rap music?
Time
I'm not blasting it just because of the language. Bad language doesn't bother me. I think I've already posted my other reasons for disliking rap, but it also has to do with the fact that some musicians can get famous by working their asses off to be really good guitar players, while others can get famous by talking to a rhythm that somebody made on their computer.

I may have to check them out.

I'm primarily a rocker, but I hate a lot of modern rock as well. Pretty much any new band on the radio (Nickelback, Linkin Park, Puddle of Mudd, etc.) makes me want to pull my hair out in clumps. I pretty much listen to older rock (except for White Zombie, but they don't count. They're more of a guilty pleasure than a "OMG THEYRE TEH BEST BAND EVRRR!!!!" type band. I know they aren't that good, but I like them anyway).


I'll have to check out K-O's. They (or he, whatever ) sound intriguing.

One reason I have a grudge against rap is the rap/rock remix, i.e. taking old, classic rock songs and rapping over them. So far I've heard remixes of Aerosmith's "Dream On" (by Eminem, no less, whom I hate), Slayer's "Raining Blood", and Ozzy Osbourne's "Crazy Train". There's only so much I can take......

The only rap/rock remix that doesn't suck is Aerosmith/Run-DMC's "Walk This Way" remix.

See, the lyrics posted by sybeman were pretty good. The ones that Shim posted were just saturated with swear words, and therefore lost all semblance of intelligence.

you might actually feel smarter cause they are so rich.


Isn't that a bit much? Not even my favorite music makes me feel smarter. I guess the thing for me, is that I need music that requires some musical talent in order to do. I'm not saying that all rap/hip-hop artists are untalented, I just think that guitar chops or drum rhythms sort of win out over "mad rhymin' skillz".

Here is a few excerpts from "You Never Know", by Immortal Technique, a song recommended by a respected member of the forum:

Fuck the horse and carriage shit, her love was never for hire
Disciplined, intellectual beauty's what I desire
Flyer than Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez


On the block, bitches was jealous, but wouldn't admit it
Talk shit, and deny to everyone that they did it
'Cause they regreted the long list of niggaz that they let hit it


My real niggaz would catch me thinkin', out of my zone
Fuckin' lots of different women, but I still felt alone



Um.......I'll pass.

By the way, Adam, your pursuit of HLF's pics is starting to get creepy, bordering on obsessive. It would be wise to cease and desist while you are still ahead.
