My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: Rap Music
The idea that lyrical depth is important is silly and pretentious.

Its important if thats what you like lol. I like the club stuff more but you're wrong to say its pretentious.Originally Posted by Sasaki Kojiro

Re: Rap Music
Rap with the rude amount of ice and bling, thats not rap. Thats just disgusting.
Rap with a message, thats rap.

Been to:
Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

Re: Rap Music
yeah i used to like his stuff alot, but he changed, started making all these corny songs, completely sold out to interscope, and on top of that there is evidence that he started rapping the way he did when he was so awesome, because he took a bunch of other people's styles and put it together.
Examples of his stuff BEFORE he Bit other peoples steez.
Eminem-Infinite(1996)
Eminem-Tonight, and -Maxine. (1996)
After He linked up with a New Jersey group called the Outsidaz (I live in NJ) he totally changed his style due to being in their group.
EX:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXjN58aMAZI
Notice he shouts out Outsidaz, and Young Zee and Pace Won, both members of the Outsidaz.
Outsidaz Feat. Eminem-Macosa
Outsidaz Feat. Eminem-Rush Ya Clique
There is also evidence he stole from Cage...some say that its the other way around but i doubt it because Cage came out first.
Cage-Agent Orange
Now examples of the WACKNESSSSS he turned into after he sold out to Interscope.
Just Lose It
Cleanin out my closet
In response to his newfound commercialism and WACKNESS, PaceWon(his old friend from the Outsidaz) Dissed him with this track: Pacewon- Rap Music (eminem Diss)
Granted some of his stuff was good even after he made it big,(especially the songs dissin Benzino and Ja Rule) but he went down hill after a while.
Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!
In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

I'm a white middle class British guy who listens to Nirvana and Sinatra, and i quite like rap when there's more to it than nines, bling and bitches.

Re: Rap Music
Rap is not for me, but I do dig one artist who raps, like an old soul record:

This is beyond rap though. I'm not sure how it would be classified. One clip seems to be from a jazz show. Anyway, a very underrated bassist/songwriter. Luv her style, luv her stuff ...
(and loved those nights of endless dancing with you, Chile, wherever you are!)

Masamune, that's pretty cool stuff. Never heard of 'r, but I dig it
The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.
Re: Rap Music
I listen pretty much everything coming out. I'm hungry for the music, so producers are more important for me than the artists singing whatever they sing. I also listen a lot of instrumental mixtapes. Whole DMX discography is great. M.O.P., Cypress Hill, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, I have been listening everything from them for a long time now. Nas had great albums till Street's Disciple album came out. Luda has some great stuff and Wu Tang also.
I mean I haven't been listening the lyrics for over 8 years now. It's all about the beats, the music. All that Beefing and throwing punch lines between various artist, was kind of fun few years ago. At least some of the best beats are on the background of those tracks.
Re: Rap Music
after seeing Tom Cruise hilarious dance to a rap song on the movie Tropic Thunder my respect for rap is kinda restored...and for Tom Cruise also....man that was funny

Odd video of a song with the most striking lyrics wrote in french for the last thirty years. (damn it's already ten years old. Si I am....)
http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=-hhi-l...eature=related
la Rumeur, le monde ivre", "the drunk world". by far the best lyrics in contemporary french rap. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Rumeur
and also http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=R0AKWW...eature=related also ten years old, alas.... a song about one of the band's leader going back to Togo, and being treated a nigger by his cousins, felling like sitting between two chairs.

Re: Rap Music
I listen to some rap/hiphop myself, but I'm no great fan. What I do loath, is all that drug-and-sex-oriented afroamerican rap. I prefer rap with some meaning, if you get me.

Re: Rap Music
Alright I'm back, with some music.
[Completely inappropriate music video—Lemur]
2009 looks good, I'm mostly looking at what Dr. Dre has been producing. Marshall has been producing. Busta has good producers on his coming album. Same goes for Curtis "the police" Jackson's to be released album. Hoping for some new fat beats and good hooks. So, producers, DJ's hurry up!
All I wanna do is... BANG BANG BANG... and take your money...
