Smore I can't think of... Oh well.
One more thing. Rap sucks, don't let anyone tell you it's good! It's a conspiracy! Actually I have no proof of that but it's got to be if anyone actually likes that garbage.
Rap is the Reality Television of the music industry, they're both cheap and easy to make. Anyone can talk about random things to a beat in the background. It takes some skill to organize a band, play instruments and such, and it's alot harder to think of a name for a band, rather than just naming your self "Funk Master Bowflex" or something (That was geared towards artist that only give a damn about themselves, and rap of course. Rap bands are x however many are in the band more terrible. Manson and Rob Zombie also suck for that fact, but make up for it in actually good music.)
Well, maybe I've been too hard on the rap community. If it were up to me, I'd say rap and rock should join forces to take out the real enemy, and that is those little blonde girls that all look the same and don't even write there own music. I say we just combine them all into one person, so not to confuse people and paychecks, and then we can shoot that person. Here are some examples, Brittany Spears, Hillary Duff, and all the rest I can't think of right now.
But anyways, enough ranting for now... Hmm........
Look at me! I can be just like Eminem!
Flippity flam, All up in my jam!
Look at me eat all this spam!
Makin up words like stam and fam!
So then I can rhyme and change the tone for no reason!
Because its Beaver season!
Now, let me freestlye for yall some tunes bout me beatin up my girl, then wondren why she don't like me!
Mother F*ckin B*tch!
Im onna slap you up so hard, your bozhizzle ill fohizzle!
so I get the chizzle!
No daughter, don't cry, I didn't do nuttin
It was all her, sayin I hate you
and I know it's my fault
But I'm gonna turn around and rap about how it is her fault, so people will think I'm the shiznit, and take my word over hurs!
Seriously now, I really hate Eminem. You cant just make a song about how your gonna kill someone after a fight, then say that it was your feelings and you didn't mean it, and then say "why does she hate me? It must be her fault" Because all of you know that if any one of us made a song about how were going to bomb the US white house and Hijack some planes, and then afterwords say we didn't mean it, the government is so gonna ride our a*sses till they bleed, so eminem should get the death penalty or something. Him and his little rapper buddies.
Don't look at me like im Racist or prejuduce against a certain kind of music, because first of all, it's not a race, idiot, and it's not music. And there is no way you "rap people" can ever compare yourselves to something like the Jewish Holocaust or something like that (Believe me, some of them act like that, it's retarded). So let's all do our part to end rap, and say, "Screw you rap!"
I like Monkeys! And alot of people like metal, and alot like rap. I remember when I made a topic like this a while back alot of people liked rap. I guess they just got scared. Bah who cares. Monkeys!

Gilgamesh Dekakeru: For me he inappropriate attidude you state all Rappers have can also be found in most heavy metal bands. I cant see how you can compare people like Marylin Manson to people like Eminem and still say the latter acts unrationally.
Also I doubt think you should dismiss someone elses taste of music so simply. Youve definately not heard every rap song, and every sub-genre of rap. I think youll agree that the rap you are talking about is mainstream rap, which I to dislike. However unconventional/underground rap has its qualities...more so in my opinion than some of the heavy/hate/death metal Ive read about. To dismiss the rhythm and rhyming of true rap artists as something anyone can do is pretty offencive. Just by looking at my list youll probably notice Im not the biggest fan of rap, I am simply a fan of respecting others opinions, especially things like music, where personal taste is really the only reason for their choice of music.
For someone who enjoys violence on an enternainment level, you sure are critical of Eminems actions. For some people music is a way to release their angst and anger, often through punk rock (eg. the Clash), heavy metal (eg. Metallica) or rap (eg. Eminem). Id personally lean towards the Clash, but my point is all three musical genres release pretty much the same emotions and attidudes but in very different ways. So dismissing ones music as totally irrational really is ignorant.
The skill factor it takes in composing the particalar music is determined by taste. I doubt you really could write and perform some of the less commercial rap songs.
Im not supposed to argue with you, Gilgy, but I just couldnt help it
'oh yeah? he's thrown a kettle over a pub, what have you done?'
No, I understand where your comming from Isty. I still like some old school rap like beastie boys and such, but I just find it easier to say rap in general. You see when I say rap, I am referring to that mainstream rap. And yes you can find some rappers in Heavymetal bands I know, like P.O.D. did a song with Nappy Roots, and some bands have part Rap part Metal or Rock, which I like, such as 311 and some other guy I can't think of right now.
But you said "I am simply a fan of respecting others opinions", but as I recall (Meaning not to re-open old wounds) when I had made my opinion of all of those women things, you said "Shutup Gilgamesh, no one asked for your advice on women. And your not being very humorous by typing all that rubbish either" and "Even if Muz wrote a couple of posts on women I still value his objective opinion more than your subjective bullshit" and "please delete this trash", it really doesn't sound like your even making an effort to do so. But I don't want to get into a heated argument now, so I'm going to let that slide.
And I don't say that your not supposed to argue with me, you can, just don't get all huffy about it. There is never anything wrong with a good argument. Just don't badger me in other topics, k? . Like I said before, I respect you, I don't have anything against you, I'm not here to make any enemies. I'm sure your a sensible person, are you not?
And please don't get mad for me being a little offensive, I'm not the type to really care, but I do try to do my best in not doing it. And I used to try an value alot of other people opinions in the past, but that just doesn't work for me. Sure I value some opinions, but when I really don't like it, it's no help sucking up to the person. But anyways, yeah.
I personally believe most rap does not belong in the music industry. The music industry is for those with musical talent, be it singing or playing an instrument. Most rappers have no musical talent at all. I don't mind rap in metal because there is musical talen there. But people these days who think that talkling really quickly with bad half-rhymes and a limited and primarily ebonic vocabulary is an outstanding display of musical talent, I pity you.
I listen to alot of alternative, like badly drawn boy, whitlams, strokes etc. But that's not to say I don't like any popular music, I am a huge Blink 182 and Foo Fighters fan. As far as old music goes, The Beatles, The Sex Pistols and The Clash rate very highly with me, but I like alot more.

excellent comment Damiem M. i listen to a few rap tracks but i dont believe it to be real music as such. it seems like a huge chunk of people these days are gettin into some weird 'gangsta' way of living. there are people at my college who walk round with fake limps and stuff thinking they are 'bad'. i dont get that and probably never will. they're all using mexican/bronx slang with accents and wierd clothes... anywho.
