The number one reason why I stopped listening to current rap music.

[Freya Coral]

I hate modern (c)rap with a passion. The only good rap is when they talk about stuff that matters rather than (a) how much money they have (aka bling-bling), (b) how they want to do 20 girls in one night (STDs anyone?), (c) talking like they have a speech impediment, (d) condoning violence and drug use, or (e) all of the above.

And the videos...what the **** is with the videos? They all look the same! Two or three guys with pants falling off, lowriding cars, maybe a hot tub or two, and the guys constantly surrounded by at least a dozen bikini-clad chicks hanging all over them. Enough said. Know w'uh sayin yo? :laughing:

Metal for me please! :rock:

I've heard the argument that rock music is better than rap music because in rock music it talks about real life stuff like breaking up with your girl or something, while rap music is just some song about bling bling and how you're living the "new rich" life instead of growing up in some ghetto somewhere. Then there's the rap songs that condone murder (apparently...I don't recall hearing much of that in my rap days), which rock music doesn't do (or does it?)

I like rock because it's sort of like music (classical music enthusiasts will say otherwise). Rap people like rap it because they are trapped lusting after pop culture. And I don't even want to get into the various other denominations. Just like what you like and be done with it. Sheesh.

Man, I wonder if you know how right you are. Rap is so bad out these days. 50 Cent and his stupid little gang are horrible. Kanye West used to be good but repeats the word but in a different sense in his new raps and that stupid eh-eh-eh <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"> in his song with pharell is g-eh-eh-eh-tting really annoying. Yung Joc can't spell and can't rap for his life. Bubba Sparxx contines the south's failure to rap anything else but about ass. Lil John isn't even a rapper. Yin Yang Twins are another example along with bubba. Rap is just taking a horrible turning point. How do these people at BET handle this crap? And some rappers are selfish. Ice Cube had his own Top 25 Countdown on BET and put his new song as #1 and his song with Lil' Jon above Tupac's classic California Love. Only good rapper that started out some time these days is Chamillionare. Everything else is bull<img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif">.
