. Lastly, many of us live in the United States of America...we are allowed by law to express our opinion about anything we damn well please.
hahahah why do Americans always say that, like they're the only ones in the whole world that are able to do that (plus I'll just leave the Homeland Security remarks alone)?
ince you are from overseas and the whole Rap culture started here, I'd be interested to know on what you base YOU'RE opinion about Rap???
My knowledge of the culture comes from study OF the hip hop culture, it's music, everything. How about active participation in the scene/culture (yes, there is hip hop overseas, or do you believe there is no house music outside Chicago, or no string quartets outside Germany or Austria?)?
You say what Hip hop is not about, and offer no insite as to what you think it IS about. Tell you what, you post here what Rap is all about and I bet someone will probably have a totally different viewpoint that is no less legit. What Rap or any music is all about is really a personal thing don't you think?
I totally agree, that's why I said people should discover for themselves IF they are interested... and at the same time, not JUDGE it if they are not.
Put it this way...do you think "This is Spinal Tap" is a horrible discoloration of Rock bands and should be treated to the same type of "politically correct" responses that this thread seemed to produce?
Nope, matter o fact, hip hop has its own Spinal Tap....CB4.
Listen man, I know this shouldn't be taken too seriously, and contrary to what you think, I DO know about the amount of "what's the best rap mic" posts over here...and it IS ridiculous and people SHOULD use the search function.
But why come up with these lame-ass cliche jokes? You don't see me talking shit about people dressing in black, not showering, painting their face and crying about the world and their sexuality when somebody posts "I'm looking for a good guitar amp for my emocore band"...
I don't mind a joke here and there, but anytime the word "rap" comes up OUTSIDE the beats/hip hop forum, people start saying ridiculous, stupid, unc-called for rap-bashing stuff.
just let everybody be, man
