Rapping techniques

[Sylvie]

I thought it said "raping techniques"

Which isn't far off, since rap rapes the english language.

rap does more than rape the language, it disgraces it, but lets not go into that

You're just shooting your mouth off. You couldn't explain yourself even if you tried.

"I'm gonna bang up my hoe, woah woah! I'm gonna rape some bitches, oh oh, I'm gonna shove my penis in a fan, woah woah!"

You were saying?

You're the same way.....

What you rap about is what's important. Maybe you don't like the idea of black guys rhyming words.

When the hell did I go around saying "I'm going to rape someone"?

And what gives you the right to assume I'm a womanizing asshole?

[Muse]

You guys are acting so immature. He likes rap, so what? I'm not a big fan of rap myself either, but that doesn't give me the to disregard the entire genre as a whole; none of you have provided any genuine reasons as to why you hate rap, because there are none.

[Sylvie]

The little quote I listed is partly why I hate rap. Thats a genuine reason. Every rap song I hear is about hoes, cars, and bitches. Or something. I think thats a good enough reason for me to not like rap.

[Paro]

Every rap song I hear is about hoes, cars, and bitches.

I think have a problem with black people from the ghetto.

These guys make more money then you could in your whole life and all they have to do is rhyme words.

I bet that really bugs you.

Rap isn't all about the stuff you listed.

I know that. I'm saying that all the popular rap is about this stupid crap. And I find it sad that you resort to insulting me for not making as much money as a bunch of crackheads who have no smurfing idea what their talking about. They don't even deserve that money for poorly rhyming words and making no sense at all. Its hardly even music.

You don't know anything about rap or rap music. So how can you say that all popular rap music is crap?

I'll just point and laugh. *points* HAHA.


Thanks

I'd have to agree with the people saying rapping by a formula is silly. Having your own style in rapping is like having a different singing voice. If anything, rappers that decide to completely stray away from formulas like the ones you posted are the ones that become legends (i.e. Rakim).

Rap sux0rz lawlz!

Ok enough of you "rap sux lolz" we know already and don't really care. Your making these pointless stupid posts is not going to change my views on music. So why bother?

Because it obviously gets a rise out of you.

Ok back to topic, I like East coast rap. Well more like I like Queens rappers and a few Brooklyn rappers. For the most part that is. Mainly I listen to NaS and AZ. Both are lyrical geniouses. I don't give to smurfs about what anyone says, these two for the most part have WAY more interesting, fresh and intelligent lyrics then 99.9 to all Rock/metal/ whatever. if you actually listen and study what they actually say, it's just frigging amazing.

No they don't. Immortal Technique is so much better than both of those people, and I don't even like rap.

No, it doesn't get a rise out of me. It's just plain stupid. If I were to post a thread about a band I liked i would get people agreeing saying yeah I like them or whatever. But if you post ANYTHING about rap a good 60% of the posts are "LOLz RAP SUX AND U SUX 2" bull<img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif">. It's just stupid.

[Cruise Control]

I dislike rap. 2PAC is good though.

EDIT: Too bad he's dead and not in Miami. Score!

Well, that's because the majority of rap does indeed suck.

2Pac is good, Immortal Technique is good. I can't be arsed to come up with more.

Saying that all rap is about guns and bitches is like saying that all rock is like Fallout Boy or whatever crap is popular today.

"I really like Pink Floyd."
"What genre are they?"
"Rock."
"Lame. All rockers ever talk about is girlfriends leaving them. What a <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif">ty genre."

Rule of thumb: Anything that is popular is likely absolute crap because the masses have no taste, so don't judge the genre on that. For every Lil' Jon there's a Mos Def, and trust me, the differences are enormous.

ya...they get money for bein dickheads....

and the only technique in rap i ever heard of was swallowin....
but seriously...its liek those people on reality tv....they are all famous for stupid shi t..like....."i sat in the chair of hugh jackman...."thats an example...and...yoou do know that the only music worth listenin to is the kinda music where the people can actually kinda play their instruments........

[Prancing Mad]

If what you rap about is important, than mainstream rap tells me that having money, stealing, being surrounded by promiscuous women, and thinking too much of myself is important. Mainstream rap blows, it's awful and has nothing of interest. If it isn't mainstream rap, then it might at least have a worthwhile message, in which case, I can respect it. Or if it actually has interesting musical phrases in it, then I might respect it, but too much Muchmusic rap is awful. Actually Much music anything is usually not very good, but they do get lucky once every few months with shows like the wedge and stuff.

CHECK MY THEORY! Whatever music is popular at the time will begin to suck. Let me explain. People find an awesome band of a certain genre (ex, though you may not agree, Alexisonfire). Suddenly marketting guys see this. So they find more bands that roughly resemble them, at the very least in look. Suddenly you have an over-saturated market with tons of awful bands that make the genre suck, because they're just not talented. And people eat it up 'cause it's being fed to them. Therefore rap has sucked for awhile (in general) and emo/punk whatever yo uwanna call it, is beginning to suck awful as well (in general)

theres techniques to rapping?

lol the same question I made when i saw the title of the thread!

QFT, nicely said Stu. Yeah I love these threads, you always get a bunch of people sitting on their high horse mouthing off about this and that and just showing everyone else just exactly how ignorant they are. It's really quite amusing
