Somebody needs to make a 'metal is bloody awful' thread, and watch in awe as the very fabric of space, time and the universe, is shaken.

Imho rap music currently is pretty poor all round, with the exception of a few artists (who unfortunately tend to have been around a long time and past their prime. I'm looking at you Common). Everybody I know who listens to rap, I've tried to introduce them into classic hip hop slowly, starting with Dr. Dre, then moving through Biggie and 2pac until we reach the awesomeness which is A Tribe Called Quest, and then we achieve lyrical nirvana, and an all round appreciation of rap music.

metal is also bloody awful
