I just think that if you want something to be poetic, you shouldnt spew it out like that.. I mean, sure, everyones gonna post "This guy says this, and its poetic and wonderful and such", but if they want to be poetic, they should read it in a poetic manner

But tell me, how is rap musical, I havent dived very deep into the music, but the bit Ive heard has all been mediocre beats with someone spewing out words at a pace I cant comphrehend

Do you have something I could listen to that could perhaps sway my view?

True, true. The Roots is something I can survive. Same with Postmen, but they are unique. Wouldn't go to a concert of either, but I don't mind hearing them.

It's an ogg, 30 seconds of almost each song (1 is missing somehow) of the Album Phrenology

(I don't want to evangelize you, I don't care whether you dislike it or not, I just find it very hard to understand and disturbing that you would come to a hip hop thread and proclaim how much it sucks, I mean... )

You know, I don't know what to make of the fact that the people who like hip hop, i.e. Avenger, Sol, Ubuu etc. do not go into other music threads and start trolling and flamebaiting, I could maybe arrive at something like 'better person', shrug, dunno

No, its because the ratio of people who like hip hop to people who dont is probally 10 to 1. You are afraid to post your honest opinion, because you fear no back-up. People on that bash hip hop KNOW they will get back up...

WHAT THE ****?
That has got the be the most stupid argument I heard for trolling, really, nice going there.
I don't troll other music threads simply because flamebaiting there doesn't give me as much satisfaction as it seems to give you, I don't care enough

Sorry, but that's utter bull ****. I just don't feel the need to bash people over their personal opinions and I son't make generalizations about music that some people do here. I don't base my opinion of an entire genre of music and a handful of songs that get played on the radio. It is possible to like rap/hip hop and not like the mainstream stuff by the big corporate rappers.

Hey fish, listen to Doo Rags by Nas and Drunk by Myself by Nas. It might help show that that rap is good. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

I don't go into other threads in which they talk about other music because it doesn't interest me so I don't bother replying. I'll read it but I won't reply because I want to respect other peoples music even though I may dispise it. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

Please use proper spelling and grammar, English is not my first language, I can hardly decypher what you want to say, and I mean it.

Supposed you see a thread which says "those who like rap..." and you yourself do not like it at all, you are aware that, if you should decide to post your opinion in that particular thread, people would react and feel severely annoyed|disturbed by a little ****wit trying to be a smartass. Are you really willing to go the extra mile and post nonetheless and lay your flamebait even though you know that all you could accomplish is an argument?
You could instead leave it be and simply ignore it and respect their taste, you would not lose anything if you chose not to troll.

But I guess your mileage may vary, I am from a different culture where people respect other people after all.

So... by your logic, if you wanted to learn something about Islam you would go into such a thread and proclaim how much it sucks?

Please, don't insult our intelligence and just admit you wanted to troll for whatever ****ed up reason, you could then at least leave with a shred of dignity intact instead of making more of an *** out of yourself and working your way on my 'loser_troll_list'.

Jesus.. This is the first thread about rap I've ever posted on, I never act like a idiot on the forums for the most part. I never sought to offend anyone, and you get really hostile at me, and curse and complain.. I accepted my defeat, said you were right and YOU STILL complain.. Why man, I even asked something, then said I didnt like it and you yelled at me.. Im sorry for talking.

If you want to hear Rap at its finest, as well as some of the truest and boldest statements on the REAL world, listen to Tupac Shakur.

I can't say I particularly like Tupac, Nas, etc., though I do like Outkast and Eminem.
