Rap is Dead. Change my mind.

Snoop discussing the advent of mumblerap

“in the 90s no two niggas rapped the same. In the 2000s a hundred niggas rap the same”
Meaning, the art is deade, all thats left is copying.

Autoplay followed this up with a song from Eminem that piece of horrific absolute trash. He should never haver been allowed into the game, with his nasal whiney mother-disgracing trash. I mean I dont mean to insult trash. I just dont know how to call Eminems pale excrement.

I mean he got famous by degrading his own mother. Apparently thats what a white kid has to be ready to do to enter this form. To sell your soul tot he devil to get fame is one thing but this… absolute depravity… I admit listening to his shit when it came out. But in retrospect it always felt hollow, bleak. Though Lose Yourself is kind of an exception. Its the only song where he acts like a mammal and not some filthy toilet dwelling insect, and even tells his mom that he loves her.

Other than that he is a plague. What he has become, among the lowest human beings on the planet.

Why don’t you like AOTP again? It’s hard, lyrically driven with good beats

Why you say I don’t like Army of Pharaos? I went to a concert even.

Yes they have very hard sound. Rare crew that has a hard sound with a spiritual message. Like Gravediggaz.

I can’t say that any of the latest posted videos are to my taste, except for DMX and Mobb Deep… the rest, nah! =;

You dont like the Onyx and GZA tracks?
Thats just wrong.

Since you are a woman, you are excused. I dont wanna hear that crap from any males though.

I am an Onyx fan, but nothing too soft from them…

Gza, depends what he’s saying… just like with all the Rap I like, as it’s about the track not the Rapper.

Are you saying this is soft?

If so you are one hard fuckinging lady. And please post a track thats harder. Its one of the hardest tracks Ive ever heard.

FUCK COCAINE NIGGA I SNIFF GUNPOWDER

Stil makes me laugh every time

I’m in a Zoom hustings… will post an Onyx vid after.

Would of swore we had an exchange a ways back where you said didn’t like them… But can’t find it… All’s well then…

It’s not so much the words but the attitude, that I meant.

I have a small selection of CDs that I’ll need to go through, to re-jog my memory of names of Artists… it’s been a very long while.

The first ones I posted I really admire but these too are quite nice. I realize these are probably my favorite dutch rappers, from a town slightly to the north of my own clan in “West Frysia”

I like this one. It’s funny, I probably love the Netherlands more than any other European country, but whenever I hear the Dutch language I’m like “What the flying fuck is this, What is this strange exotic language” … at 1:15 I swore he was gonna start rapping in English… Then I hear one those Hebrew like guttural sounds…Other than the guttural sounds though, I think it sounds closer to English than to German.

method man and redman did an album together called blackout and the whole thing is the shit

Thanks Mr R, that reminded me… @Fixed… that’s the style of Rap, of Redman and of other similar artists, that is my preferable sound… rare for a female, I’ve been told… but I’ve never fitted, into any one mould.

N.O.R.E. is another similar artist, to he, that was always on my playlist. Also Smif n Wessun, Sunz of Man, and others in the same ilk, but only some of their tracks not all of their tracks, mind.

Now we’re talking… :smiley:

The first more than the second, tho the second’s ok… The Opposites have gained themselves a new fan. ; )

:smiley: I grew up in the heart of London Town, where no-one ever mistook me for any clown, don’t mess aroun… tho I don’t mind em being sent in, coz they’ve always been entertainin…

Every year thats an intense day.

Let me call on an American for a second.
