who else is it their fav music? i feel kinda weird cause it's 80 percent of what i listen to and its a hippy forum. lol.
I listen to rap. Not so much these days, but last year it was 90% what I'd listen to. my favourites were Bizzy Bone, Eazy-E, Immortal Technique, MC Ren & Flesh-n-Bone
Hip hop/rap actually is more progressive then a lot of "hippy" music. My favs. are talib, nas, IT, universal balance, illogik, 3 6 mafia, wu, rza, common, mos def...... so many more but its mostly what i listen to
I'm not much of a rap person i'm more of a country girl. I feel weird sometimes here to since i'm not a fan of most hippie music though.
Snow Man.. Busta.. Pttf... I know a DJ and I can get some of the hottest RAP out there.. But I really dont listen to it much myself.. So all the stuff I have on cd I couldnt even tell you who it or what it is... Its How We Do It Over Here...
i like old east coast rap... nas, wu-tang, rakim, etc that's what i grew up on, and still listen to it. but there is so much more great music out there, i fell bad for people who keep their minds closed to rap. especially that soulja boy bullshit, no offense to all those 'silly' peeps out there
Yeah, I'm always a bit hesitant to tell someone I listen to rap, just because I know they'll immediately associate that with people like Soulja Boy and think thats the shit I listen to
for sure. but for every kinda genre there is a bad artist. just more so with rap/hip-hop of the top of my head, 1,324,632 insanely bad rappers come to mind. half of them tried to sell me their cd on the bus ride home
people are a bunch of dumbass that think rap is what's on the radio or popular when there is QUALITY stuff out there. i dont listen to the bs. and i dont care what people think.
I like Underground hip hop, Its alot better then this fake gangsta shit, that has no roots. Talib Kweli, did a collab with Madlib, called Liberation, at the start of 07' Really good shit. Other than that I like Madlib and his multiple aliases. Combined it's called the Madlib invasion. It's like Supreme Team, Lootpack, Quasimoto, Yesterday's New Quintet, Beat Konducta, DJ Rels, and more! Also you have to Love MF Doom!!! formerly Zev Love X of KMD in the early 90s. No he has a Metal Face, and all his rhymes so real. I love it with a passion Definitley some of the most progressive stuff coming out today I also love the Chrome Children albums that came out. So goood Madlib and Gilles Peterson was dope too
Rap is extremely far from being my favorite genre of music. It is one of those genres that has way too much shitty music to counter a few select good artists.
I can't stand it either. But I don't like whiny white boys either. P.S. I actually like SOME Wu Tang. But too much of that stuff isn't good for ya.
mf doom is good writer, his flow is kinda choppy but the allusions, metaphors and what not are amazing. i heard he makes all his own stuff, too. madlib is purdy dope, gotsa my vote.
