Tupac alive?

I think tupac is a live also, can't give up hope, and maybe one day we will finally know.

That's just DssCrazy.

I can't resist...

There is no such thing as "great rap", "good rap" or even "mediocre rap". It's garbage, I say!

I love how the same people that grew up hearing "Rock music is evil/the devil" from their parents can't resist going on and on about how much Rap music sucks.

Good job basing your opinion on the few songs you've heard on the radio. Most of you probably like a few "rap" songs and you aren't even aware of the fact that it's "rap".

I can agree on the fact that most modern (as in on the radio today) rap music is garbage though.

I hope you aren't referring to me. I spent 4 years in college with a roommate who listened to nothing but rap ALL FREAKING DAY. I've heard plenty of it. I think it's all awful, with the exception of one or two discs by artists who actually hired (gasp!) actual musicians to play on their albums.

I'm a 20 year student of music. I practice 4 hours a day, and have, just about every day, since I was 14 (I'm 31). I know all about generalizing genres as well - metal fans are just like rap fans in a sense. The rap/hip-hop/r&b/club/etc thing gets tossed around as black metal vs doom metal vs power metal, etc, etc. It's all just music. I can't stand rap. I also can't stand the Bee Gees, but at least they could read music before having the audacity to call themselves musicians.

Metal has some equally cheeseball stuff, but there are very few bands (actually, I can't think of one) who write entire albums comprised of nothing but odes to themselves, their crew, and how badass they are because they own a gun, drive a ferrari, or basically just hate.

Edit:

Brilliant Tupac lyrical example inc:

I won't deny it, I'm a straight ridah
You don't wanna ++++ with me
Got the police bustin at me
But they can't do nuttin to a G

Right.

Just like from my original post:
(R)etards (A)attempting (P)oetry


I'll admit DssCrazy is right some people like that type of music. But RAP music is greatly frowned upon. I know the FCC goes crazy when a rap song comes out that is really strong and language.

I was actually talking to Brad.

"Sucks" is an opinion. I think it sucks, and I stand by it. You're entitled to yours as well.
