Hypocritical post time:
To all the hip-hop haters: Critizing someone else's tast in music is stupid. It's kinda like getting on their case about what food they like. Almost every genre has some good artists and a buttload of horrible ones. Yes, classical, metal and classic rock included. If you aren't familliar with the good ones, that doesn't mean the genre sucks.
Hypocracy time:
Sweatshp Union? Blechh. Sounds like every other white-boy (even though they're not all white), sorry "concious" hip-hop group out these days.
Some of my current faves:
K-OS
MIA
DJ Krush
Anything from Del (Hiro., Del tha Funkee..., Delton 3030 etc.)
Wu-Tang (I can't stop listening to "Forever" these days, "W" can be a little raw at times)
Check out "the bassment" on Live365.com and you'll be pointed in the right (well, for my tastes) direction.

DHG, is this you?Tashi said:
btw, i agree w/ you, but will also make the statement that as w/ food, one can certainly go to some effort to extend their palate. not liking it is one thing, but being ignorant and still not liking it (much like "christians" burning books they haven't actually read) doesn't cut it.
edit - actually, one could make the case that for something like opera, it's fairly cut and dried. either you like the vocal stylings, or you don't. there isn't much room in between.
No, there was no mention of rum-raisin ice cream.narlus said:DHG, is this you?
ah, rum raisin ice cream doesn't qualify as food.Jeremy R said:
Sort of like hip-hop not really qualifying as music.narlus said:
NO! It's not me...I would've pulled out my rum raisin ice cream analogy...narlus said:DHG, is this you?

And that mop of yours doesn't qualify as HAYER!SkaredShtles said:Sort of like hip-hop not really qualifying as music.
I second that! I can't stand rap, hip hop or whatever it's called. Nothing's worse than watching a bike video that has rap music in it...come on!SkaredShtles said:Sort of like hip-hop not really qualifying as music.
wow Brian. what a brilliant comment. why don't you just go about your "OH SO COOL" ways and leave us newbies to oursevles?Brian HCM#1 said:That's what I was thinkingI know for a fact there is no such thing as "good" hiphop.
you've obviously never listened to any good music in your life (no,crappy hair metal doesn't count). this post doesn't make much of a point,but your dumbass intervention in this thread just made me upset.
one and only: Del,Deltron,or Del the Funky Homosapien. he is also a part of the Gorillaz,whose new cd (Demon Days) is AWESOME!
Is your sense of humor somewhat retarded?AlmostHeaven said:
Welll...you have a point here...I love crappy hair metal, but I can even admit its crappy!AlmostHeaven said:
But don't be mean to Brian...he's an ok guy...
