and I Respect You For That.

But I Do Not Respect Anyone Who Wants To Destroy One Culture And Force Theirs Upon Others. I'm By No Means For All The "money, Cash, Hoes"(although That Is A Decent Song :d) Hip Hop, But I Don't Think The Answer Is To Destroy It. All Mentalities Start Somewhere, And In Hip-hop It Tends To Be Poverty. Eliminate Poverty And You Will See The Mentality Of The Culture Change.

It Would Also Be Nice If Everyone Could Accept Each Other. Education Starts At Home, And America Needs Better Parents.

Music hasnt been good since the early 90s,the rap n owadays is horrible mostly,some rap is ok but the rest is trash,and the screamo and shit isnt music,i dont know how neone could consider that music,they scream because they cant sing and they still all sell out,my old favorite band Atreyu sold out,so has avenged sevenfold,and alot of bands,i wish music could go back to the way it was in the 70s,80s,and early 90s i wasnt born till 90 but i listen to music and love all my moms music,i love older bands they actually have talent and didnt need people to teach them to sing,which is how everyone gets there now adays

i agree your young but wise. these days the truely talented musicans fall by the wayside. its more important to learn how to use a computer and program a electronic device; then it is too learn how to [play music. its a shame but i honestly dont hear verry much talent in the music of today whatever the genera it sounds as if the heart and soul of music is being replaced by computer enhanced volcals and electronic devices where you hit a buttonj and it plays you a song.

exactally,take all the new disney channel singers for example,they are good singers because they were all born into WEALTHY families and got trained to sing from birth.no1 has talent nowadays,think about the good bands pink floyd,led zeppelin,the stones,the who,all of them real music,the real guitarists from back int he day,all it is nowadays is people strumming fast on a guitar loudly and screaming,or a bunch of dudes singing bout money and hoes,honestlly some rap is ok,i like country,and rock is ok,some rock at least,but this bullshit music is really pissing me off,the styx,chicago,reo speedwagon 3 incredible bands!real music 2

i like reo and styx grew up on um but never liked chicago except 25 or 6 2 4

Chicago has a few good songs,mostly from movies haha.but yea im only 17 and i love REO and Styx i wish i could see REO live my friend has 2 times

I know. I was thinking about it the other day. "Gangsta" culture is so lame. And that is all part of what rap does to people. Especially white people. I never understood why a white person that lives in the suburbs that listens to rap needs to express themselves as if they were in the hood. Plus this music promotes absolutely nothing besides...bitches, clubs, money. And thats it. That is all that music is about. Talk about a waste of space.

At least with good music. And I'm talking about the classics here man promote new ways of looking at life and how to move on from sad times and how to embrace the best of times. Not a bunch of egotistical bullshit, but free love.

Another Victim of this nonsense on the radio, It's a shame you feel that way. Guaranteed if you listen to Outkast, Immortal Technique, Dead Prez, Kanye, Common, KRS-One, Rakim, The Lox, or any other originator in this rap game you wouldn't fell that way. also there are ignorant people in all walks of life and it is clear to me that you are one of them because your out here criticizing some thing you know nothing about

true enough a lot of hip hop is played out these days. originality has gave way to hurried up music with no talent and no message for the masses. out of 100 new songs these days i will like 2 of them. for real hip hop like you have posted in this post come visit my hip hop thread. it has everything from pac, biggie, lox, dead prez, rakim, immortal technique, krs, lil wayne, scarface, brother ali........so on and so on lol. a nice mix of new and old school. i welcome anyone to come showcase what is hot to them no matter what it is. peace mk.

i respect older rap more like pac and biggie,but i like wayne,and Eminem idc who hates Eminem but if u seen him freestyle ull notice he actually has REAL talent!! and yea u named ab bunch of good rappers

blame the parents not the musics. i grew up in the ghetto, 90% of my music is gangsta rap and yet im still in college getting my radiology degree. all thanks to my parents if it werent for them i would either be dead or lock up like most of my friends. what im trying to say is parents will have more influence over a kid then music if they were taught right.

Thats funny, because I blame the suburban kids (not just the white ones either) for the popularity of this "gangsta" bullshit. Anybody REALLY from the "hood" knows that most of these gangsta rappers are fake as fuck, and bootleg their albums for the FEW hot singles they may have.

If it wasn't for the marketing of this music to the suburbs by MTV as the "It" music REAL artists like Immortal Technique, Talib Kweli, Skillz, MF Doom, Del, etc etc would get the shine they deserve.

Don't think just because the music pop culture exposes you to is vile and utterly worthless that the music/culture as a whole is that way. Hip Hop/Rap in its purest form, ie; the artists mentioned above and many more, to me, gives you a taste of reality...bittersweet, inspiring, revolutionary....

turn off your tv's and radios. Go to an underground hip hop club. Go to a record shop and ask what they recommend. Smoke a blunt/bowl/bong and sit back and listen to Technique like you would Floyd...i think you will find similar satisfaction
