Btw, the Funk Celebration made the whole show worth it, from EWF to the
nouveau guys. I even enjoyed S.L. Jackson's histrionics. And seeing
the venerable George Clinton honored so lavishly made my whole week.

I've never been a rap fan. I like music that has a melody. I also
don't particularly like the culture around rap, where you seem to need
"street cred" (i.e., a criminal record) to be considered legitimate.

perhaps you should amend that to read "the culture around one popular
type of rap.."

I've got a bunch of Public Enemy CDs. Much different than the "gansta rap"
which is more popular.

resp:25 Whoa, if you would extrapolate that all rap has no melody, that
I would say that's false.
If you go back to the original members of the rap group that was 213
and the G-funk genre of rap, I think you would find melodic elements
that are still around somewhat. 213 was Nate Dogg, Warren G, and Snoop
Dogg. Nate Dogg sang while the other two have been noted for a very
melodic rap style. Granted, Warren G never had much of a career and
was more of a producer, but there is no denying that Snoop Dogg has a
very successful career.
If you define melody in your music as singing-- okay, rap does little
to no singing at all. But Warren G and Snoop Dogg are two solid
examples of rap artists who have a very tonal style.

the rap i ahvelistened to is pre-civilization ranting. another embolism
on civility.
but back to the whatevers awards....
ustin timberlake ought NOT to hve been allowed to participate.
he , imnsho, previousoly committed an assualt (pre-staged) on the woman
who was hte victim (pre-staged).
and that asault is about to become standard practice in several
high scools acros this great land.
VeryuchMoreisthePity.
respect for a singular human;s integrety is a bulwark of america.
the barbarians may disagree ..... but to any avail IFF qualty
americans are able to run away and cower.

I can't remember an opinion blip I was as eager to distance myself from
as I am from the anti-Janet opinion blip. Doesn't Congress et al
realize how ridiculous they look?

It isn't just Janet JAckson adn Justin Timberlake, it is the culture they
brought to the forefront by their actions. It is MAdonna, Britany Spears,
and others who want to "Shock and Awe the american public. They create visual
and audio trainwrecks that call to our more base mentality. We stop and look.
They rake in the cash from higher ratings.

For once I agree with Jamie... if you want free markets, you have to accept
that perhaps the best seller will be smut.

it isn't the best seller that is a threat. In fact, if people want to produce
porn and put it on a pay for view channel, I have no problem with that.
(WEll, okay, I really do have a problem with that, but I can compromise.)
But, I do not want to see nudity on prime time tv. I do not want it on cable
only TV. If people want to see this, it should be on direct subscription
only.
And lets raise the bar here. Lets stop the sex scenes on soap operas. Lets
stop the sexual inuendo in our videos.
I read porn from time to time, and I don't have a problem with that. I do
have a problem with it in what is supposed to be a family show. If I want
porn, I can go buy Playboy. If I really want something more graphic, I can
go buy Hustler. If I want to watch the sex acts, I cn rent a video.
I do not need it on broadcast TV>
