I'm sorry that first post really had me going. The coments about them all wearing baggy pants and phat farm led me to believe that you were generalizing just a bit. Since I know of plenty who do not fit such a characterization.

Now this sounds like it's coming from on top of a soapbox. I looked at your info and it says you're 16 years old. Hey, I don't know you so I'm not going to say that you're imature. Just don't imply that I am imature for listening to rap.

i use to listen to rap and had all the underground shit and everything like that

what did you listen to? I'm curious. The Roots? Outkast? Jurassic 5? Blackalicious?

yeah that hajonius coment was out of line. disagreeing is alowed in the Rap section, but coments like that are frowned upon.

Rap is the worst excuse for music i've ever seen or heard.

spacemanspiff · 01-02-2004, 10:39 PM

what have you seen or heard?

The old school man, have you even heard the smooth lyrical style of De La Souls early stuff? Thats Rap. What about when Jurassic were just getting started? Thats Rap. What about a canadian rapper, Abdominale, who raps with DJ Format, he has skill that'd make your ears explode just to hear his true voce on top form. So dont say rap is the worst excuse for music, if you dont actually know what you're talking about.

You dont have to be black to be a rapper. And i'm not talking about Eminem, even though he may have some worthwhile skill.

Fist off do not be dousing rap in any shape of form some rappers are cool I happen to like 2pac, Chingy, 50, bow wow Zane, Luda just to name a few. Shit be happy that they are rappers not robbing you. That is what some of them say if they would not have not mad it they would be robbers. Nothing is wrong with rap let them get anger off they mind.

OMG get your head out of your arse! you're an idiot. "sometimes people just have to grow up and mature to a better level of music" ffs cut the holier than thou bullshit. You dont have to be a little kid, angry with the world to listen to hiphop, and if u really think so, you're stupider than you sound. And oooooooh he plays a 6 string bass, thats 2 more than normal, who gives a shit? Its not like its harder to play a 6 string than a four string, there's just two more strings. I agree he's a good bass player, but your example of how it takes more talent to play rock music than write rhymes and dj is lame.
Writing decent rhymes and performing them, and even DJing is just as hard, if not harder than playing a traditional instrument. Dont presume to talk about something you know nothing about.

I think he's talking about how OTHER people ACTUALLY make and write the rhymes and music and they DON'T get the credit. You must be a dumb**** Refusion. Playing a 6 string bass IS harder than playing a 4 string.

indiepunk · 01-10-2004, 05:42 PM

llama is right, refusion has no idea what the hell i'm talking about. i wasn't saying the 6 string bass was harder than the four(which it is) but i was saying the it is harder to sing and play anything than just sing you ignorant dick.
