technically, it isa verb, but in this case it's
just another tired reference to the materialism that
dominates the culture.. sad

as far as the first single goes... the beats are pretty
decent... but the vocals aren't particularly impressive (on
any level)

I hate rap music like this... give me something with a
message at least, something with some substance and meaning!

seriously though, as far as pop music goes, Rap is the worst
imo... it just annoys me to no end all this crap
"bling-bling" rap, and pimps and hoes shit... goodness, it's
so overdone now... it was annoying in the first place, now
it's just making me want to cut off all my limbs so I slowly
bleed to death... God, why is it that all rappers know about
is big butts, and hoes and whatever... all the best rap
songs have meaning... the best songs to come around in the
last while in my opinion are Where is the Love by Black Eyed
Peas (even though it's ALWAYS on, it's still a good track)
and that Eminem track which sampled the Aerosmith tune...
those songs kicked ass because I didn't feel dirty and like
a pervert listening to them... they're actually thought
provoking... and sometimes I like to use my brain when I
listen to music...

also, my favorite rap song is Changes by Tupac... that one
rules because again, it has meaning... and it samples an
awesome tune, The Way It Is by Bruce Hornsby...

What i've heard isn't great... I prefered the D12 album for
out of order hip hop laffs

Black Eyed Peas???? You're obviously not used to European
beer Funk, you're out of your skull!

shrug, I love the song... I meant one of the best rap songs,
not songs in general, and I'm not a big fan of rap anyways,
so the list isn't huge... I just really like it... plus I
find that chick in the group really attractive!

Aaah, now we're getting down to it ;)

I don't like hardly any rap these days, I stopped listening
to it all after Ice Cube's 'Lethal Injection'... I love the
really violent, aggressive rap. A few groups perked my
interest now and then - and while I don't listen to his
albums I think Eminem's alright - but NWA and that stuff was
the best for me.

the song / single on the radio right now is the usual
stupid/funny song. Go listen to the rest of the cd before
you make charasmatic judgements like that.

Go listen to song 4, Lady.

Heh

obie's got some nice tracks but almost all of them are nice
because of the production and/or guest artists.. as all
music guide said, he's the ultimate everyman or "average"
emcee (for people who enjoy listening to average hip-hop)
and it often seems like he's a guest on his own album among
far superior talents.. "lady" is fantastic btw

anyway, about bling bling, sexist, aggressive, etc. rap, it
all has its place.. listen to it or don't, but it's silly to
wish they'd stop making something if it makes some people
happy to create or hear it.. you should wish people would
stop playing it or championing it as the greatest thing the
genre has to offer

also, that BEP song, "where is the love", is dreadful, and i
like some of their stuff. most candycoated "underground"
hip-hop track i've ever heard. how anyone could take them
seriously in that song is beyond me. will.i.am said in their
defense that no one else has a top 10 single where they
"tell the truth about terrorism" (see the lyric about the
CIA) but they barely even graze the subject and the rest of
the lyrics make me whince in their simplicity, mediocrity,
pretensiousness, insincerity, and blatant commercialism

that's fine, you should.. don't let my opinion cloud your
own judgment, that's not what i wanted

Plus the melody is shamelessly ripped off from 'Torn' by
that Icelandic bird (covered by Natalie Umbrooglyar)

That Black Eyed Peas tune is absolute dog's piss. There are
no decents beats and the lyrics are just a load of cliches
clumsily strung toether. A load of PC sentiment that makes
me want to puke my fucking ring. Yuk!

I am tired of rappers thinking they have something to say
that I want to hear. Honestly, some do, but all I want to
hear them talk about is fucking hoes, getting fucked up,
fucking up other peoples shit and talking shit about other
people.

I do NOT want to hear another song with some guy rapping
about how much he loves his girlfriend or hates american
foreign policy.
