    Hell yeah, my old buddy the Fonz is back!!!

    Hardly "key examples" of what I was referring to, Henry. These nations are not based on that concept that could be used in such nations as the United States, although they could be. You are speaking of an entirely different environment. These nations are even different from each other.

    Let's continue this over in the Politics Forum. I'll set up a new thread.

    I dont like doing this, but i have to correct myself, i do like some rap, i like run dmc for example. but for the most part i can't stand it. yes there are some elements of rap in sublime, but i look at them different because they trancend so many different genres.

    I remember I used to play a skating game at my friends with an Old Skool soundtrack, that must be it. Rappers Delight was on it! Was the first stage kind of like a warehouse?

    im annoyed with the billions upon billions of threads saying how rap blows..
    Fuck, mostly every genre have their down side, just turn on the radio..
    I think that if the artist writes it themself, whats the fucking problem.. if ya dont like it dont listen to it..
    I respect ANYONE no matter what genre it is, as long as they write it themselves..so whatever...

    I like some rap... it gets me in the groove sometimes... if it's not too disrespectful than it's just crap like any other shitty song genre

    All I know is that Rap and Rock have common ancestor and thats the Blues.

    So I can find appreciation in both.

    yea i cant stand rap eather. at all. idno why. it does take lyrical thought but so does every genre so you can't say rap requires more. i dont like most new bands eather though. except the white stripes. but theres lots of good music in many styles. listen to what you like

    Why limit yourself to one genre? You would miss out on so much art and culture...
