Kendrick can make good songs/music but he's severely overhyped as a lyricist and his voice/delivery is terrible.

Simple. People listen to music they can relate to. Rap fans largely consist of African Americans. In the USA African American communities have notoriously bad schooling.

i'm a long time fan of rap. the only thing that confuses me is when people seem to think the only good rap is from the abstract/backpacker end of the spectrum. for me, even though i'm into some artists who would be considered that style, i like some dirt. overly preachy, moralistic rap has long grown tiresome. all of that get up, get out and get something shit gets to be like sitting in church. it's like listening to a bad spike lee film.

music is entertainment, and when i listen to music i expect to be entertained. i tend to prefer clever lyricism with a nice dose of braggadocio and grit. i equate it to liking gangster movies like goodfellas. i don't like goodfellas because i connect with the mindset of robbing and killing for a living; i like it because it's a compelling story told through brilliant direction and acting.

scarface - for real


big krit - king of the south


guns-n-butter, reef the lost cauze, kool g rap, r.a. the rugged man - three greats


badbadnotgood, ghostface killa & elzhi - gunshowers


action bronson & alchemist - eggs on the third floor


billy woods - sour grapes

So says a new study by Virgil Griffith, a 25-year-old grad student at Caltech.

A tid bit:
Quote:

...the school with the highest average SAT score happened to be Caltech, shockingly enough. And Caltech students' favorite band, as indicated by their Facebook pages, is Radiohead. But since Caltech has fewer students than plenty of larger schools, Radiohead doesn't get too huge of a bump on the big chart.  According to Griffith's chart, the smartest kids' favorite musician, by a ridiculously huge margin, is Beethoven (average SAT score: 1371). Other smart kid favorites: Sufjan Stevens, U2, Radiohead. The dumbest kids' favorite, meanwhile, is Lil Wayne (average score: 889). Other dumb kid favorites: Beyonce, T.I., Ludacris.

For his part, Griffith doesn't claim that the chart is any sort of definitive IQ-map: As he told The Wall Street Journal, "Their unity is hilarity incarnate. This is to inspire people to think creatively about the data sets that are on the Internet ... Of course there is the whole correlation is not causation thing, but, I mean, duh." Spoken like a true Sufjan fan.

What a racist douche bag.  :noway2:




Dear OP

Tell me one good rap artist, that promotes peace and understanding

That doesn't sell sex/violence or get you sexually stimulated by watching the cover with sexy halfnaked ladies


Usually rap is about violence, violence they think is cool - that's stupidity
Usually rap is about sex/murder/violence, how much they gangrape each other, how many chicks he doggystyled, how little the new gangs know


Rap is ego stimulation, sexual stimulation, violence stimulation (again ego)


So is there any rap that is not about ego ?


That you can listen to without trying to be cool and fit in, without having to smoke weed?

Tupac & Nas are my all-time favorite artists.


--------------------
Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..

I just want to clarify the threa d  tte

Rap music doesn't make you stupid.

The study simply determined that stupid people listen to rap.

Big defference





if it doesnt cause stupidity then how do we explain all the stupid people
listening to rap, are you trying to say that blacks are inherently stupid
and that they listen to rap because of this?


BTW, we need to ban rap musiic as a symbol of hatred and violence

Thanks appreciate it, will save up for an album or two and listen a bit to them on youtube

I don't really like eminem/snoop dog it seems, but 2pac seems to have some somewhat interesting mental lyrics

The other ones are just "sex,violence is cool" , sacral chakra desires lol


It drains you, even 5min of it
Not that there is anything wrong with sex, but it can certainly be too much, there's sex in every newspaper and every music album these days, gives me nausea each time

Perverted sex is nasty , true sex is godly
