Rap music. The music, the words, the way the "rappers"
dress, their gestures and steps. It's clownish. Ugly.
Music for losers. If there were a race of people I was
trying to keep subjugated, I would somehow convince them to
adopt rap as their music, and I'm enough of a paranoiac to
wonder if something like that isn't actually happening.

The current state of rap, I must concede, is pitiful. This is too bad...It
had so much potential. The idea of poetry read to music could be so well
done.

I agree, and giving Coolio a Grammy for a gansta rap album was less than
responsible. The Academy ought to rethink it's criteriae. This will only
galvanize and validate a form of rap that has no place anywhere.
I will not denounce rap wholesale, because I have heard some really
inventive pieces done as comedy tracks, but the so-called artists have got
to wake up and smell the coffee.

The Grammies have very precise criteria: Sell a lot and you win.
I do miss Public Enemy grade rap. The stuff that makes it to MTV and
mainstream radio tends to be pretty lame.

re #127: don't be so ignorant, Jim. Coolio's album was anything _but_
a "gangsta rap" album. If anything, it was what rap needs more
of: positive messages that discourage violence instead of
the buzzed-out pornographic filth that tend to sell more
copies.

I'm only ignorant because I don't know anything.
(how's that for a berra-ism?)

heh. seriously, don't let the song title confuse you. I know that the
big thing right now is to condemn the entire artform because of a few
unscruplous artists, so I'm a little touchy when the baby is thrown out
with the bathwater, so to speak.

Let's see...Mariah Carey - stop screeching!!! Michael Bolton, Whitney
Houston, John Mellencrap, Hootie and the Blowfish, Sheryl Crow, Alannis
Morrissette, and all country. Most of those are overplayed top-40 artists
whose songs sound the same after the second one they release (Alannis,
Hootie...). Ugh.
Do *not* dis Rush in my presence... ;-) j/k Your opinion...
