I've found that when you ask someone what kind of music they like to listen to they'll often say anything, except for rap or country. Me, I like hiphop, there aren't any specific artists I listen to (unless Sage Francis counts as hiphop, I don't know) but if it comes on the radio and sounds good I'll listen to it. Lately the radio has been playing a song by Ludacris that I really like.

Ludacris makes any song better. It's true.

[quote="StruckingFuggle";p="702512"]Also, the library exists for a reason ... :shifty:[/quote]
Yep. They exist because Ben Franklin thought that having people pay (subscribe) to be able to loan out books from a common library was both practical and financially rewarding. Luckily for us, the idea stuck and became relatively (if not completely) free. Luckily for him, he made a nice buck inventing the idea.

I don't hate rap. I just hate how rappers walk in everyday's life. I hate how they talk when they're not singing. I hate how they dress. I hate the annoying sounds they're doing with their mouth. And I hate how they move their fucking fingers all the time.

The music itself is not excellent but not horrible neither. You heard one, you heard them all.

I disagree but it enrages me less. The flat refusal of rap as an acceptable type of music irritates the hell out of me.

... oh wait, Lucksi made the comment that enraged me... nevermind then disregard the post. Lucksi, you are still on notice, though!

Depends on the rapper. Heck, just using the two I listed, Kingdom Farts sounds nothing like The Tussin sounds nothing like Space Game sounds nothing like The Roommate From Hell..

Any music genre which predomanantly peppers its lyrics with the words fuck, shit and biatch is about as legitimate in artform as stripping and just as crude.
