Well, here it is, Rap.
Lots of metal Heads feel that this genre has
nothing to offer, that it is unintelegent and
without feeling, that it's all about smokin'
joints and gang wars.

But others may realize that rap and metal
arn't so different after all. Just look at
How Public Enemy Did a Song with Anthrax,
It's simple, both metal and rap can tend to have
rebelious and politically themed music. (punk to actually)
They both can indicate Drug problems and spiritual
Awareness.

For me, Rap is my favorite Genre of Music second
only to metal (Of Course!) Because I feel, well......
Pretty much the same as how I explained on the previous
Paragraph. It's intelligent, Political and for the most part
rebellious music. It also sounds good to me, If it's a good
M.C., the words flow like water with the Beat in the background.

So, what about you, is it stupid to you?
Do just not like the Sound?
Or maby you Love the sound,
and hey, do you relate to it?

Go Forth and Tell me!

EDIT: If you're going to critisize this genre of Music in any Negative way, Please make sure you critisize it with some inteligence. Statements like "The Only Good Rapper is a dead one," WILL BE MARKED AS A SPAM POST!!!
So please, remember that, and we're cool

Mattybu Posts: 2589	Permalink 25.06.2011 - 23:23 Mattybu Posts: 2589 I think some artists can really communicate a lot. Sure, N.W.A.'s music does talk about bitchez and poppin niggaz wit cho gat, but it also does bring up some points about real issues they went through like racism and police brutality and growing up in the ghetto. They're my example of a good rap group. Loading...

Straight Outta Compton is a fucking boss album. Listening to more and more hip hop these days, as I am still discovering some of the classic shit (totally hooked by Biggie recently) and some new one. You all might be interested in Has-Lo debut, laidback stuff with a 2pac sentimental vibe. ---- IntoPlighT said: "Slipknot is 15 years old how the fuck is that Nu metal?" BEST. QUOTE. EVER. Loading...

Void Eater Account deleted	Permalink 04.07.2011 - 05:27 Void Eater Account deleted My favorite rapper is Paris. His lyrics revolve around black supremacy and whatnot, but he's damn good. His music is a lot darker than most rap, which is of course a good thing. Big Daddy Kane is also good, and you can never go wrong with Biggie. I've also been liking Odd Future a lot latley. Yeah, they're just a trend right now, but the music is pretty good. Again, it's somewhat darker than most hip hop. Oh yeah, and N.W.A. Despite being an upper middle class white kid who's never gotten in trouble with the law, I can't help but sing along with "Fuk tha police, comin straight from the underground!

This album was really popular in Highschool and his old stuff is what inspired a lot of the popular rappers coming out of the scene today. EDIT: Also, wouldn't call him a "black supremacist", I think he was more about "seperate but equal " ---- The word gen means "illusion" or "apparition."
