10 by Jachyra - 8/5/2003 5:27:43 PM I absolutely and thoroughly HATE rap and hip hop.

#38 by kona0197 - 8/6/2003 6:16:50 PM RAP and COUNTRY have no place in my house or my car... IN MY OPINION they both suck as well as hip hop.

Funny when hip hop is a CULTURE. Rap is something you do, hip hop is something you live. Funny how you can hate on something you know little about; at least get your shit straight. I'll bet you only know of that MTV bull****. I'll name plenty of emcees who can eat these fools on MTV up. MTV is only the SURFACE.

And when yall say Techno, you don't mean all electronica music do you? Cause Techno is a kind in its own form. Then there is trance, drum n bass, tribal, ambient, house, etc..

Now that I schooled some of yall, I'm into rap, turntablism (http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/features/vinyl/turntable.shtml ), electronica, r&B, hard rock, heavy metal, easy listening, jazz and symphony and orchestra. Got a very open mind.

MTV IS A WORD AND A TV STATION NOT ALLOWED IN MY HOUSE EITHER! Get you sh** striaght brother! hip hop is not a way of life for me. I do everything possible to stay away from it. Now if MTV would go back to showing videos 24/7 I might watch but only if they cut everything but metal and rock. I am not open minded when it comes to hip hop or rap. All they usually permote is a life of drugs, violence, and sex. My kids do not need that crap. Decides why would you even listen to a rap video that calls girls bitches every other sentece and all the girls are half way naked? where is your morals? >

^^^^

Again, get off MTV! You contradicted yourself. How would you know whats in the videos otherwise? I never said hip hop is a way of life for YOU. You say "they both suck as well as hip hop", but hip hop is a CULTURE.

Listen, most of whats on MTV is garbage. There are REAL emcees out there. You really don't know what you're talkin about. There are real artists out there preserving the art form. Don't judge the culture on what little you know about. You want to know of some good emcees? Cause you'll stick your foot in your mouth.

OK DJ listen: I just DO NOT LIKE rap or HIP HOP. simple as that. nothing more nothing less. each to his own right? I like headbanging, loud, people calling the police, rage against the machine, anti social, annoying hevey metal music.

And I do not care for the hip hop culture. my kids will nt be raised around it. simple as that. I do agree about MTV.

So drop it already. decides, rap and hip hop are not as bad as country in my book. but I dislike all three.

Kona, again....... shut-up! Grow-up! And Listen! Music is GOOD in any genre!

I love being attacked for a opinion!

oh and BTW not all nusic is good. For instance why was Iced T's cop killer pulled?

Who attacked you? I just smacked you up-side your head

I love music... anything that has soul, from Gregorian Chant to Acid Rock, Opera, Blue Grass, Jazz, you name it. International music from any country. Good music has a quality that differentiates it from souless drivel, it can move you.

<-- singing opera

Ummm, she didn't say *all* music is good. She said there is good music in any genre.

still when you tell someone to shut up that means you need to grow up.... quite immature!

I like many genres of music but those that I prefer include:

Ambient/space music typified by Steve Roach, Robert Rich, Michael Stearns, Harold Budd, Brian Eno, Raison d'Etre, Biosphere

Sureal, ethereal, world music typified by David Sylvian, Dead Can Dance/Lisa Gerrard, Loreena McKennitt, Delerium
As for other genres:

For metal: SymphonyX, Blind Guardian, Iced Earth
Industrial Electronic: KMFDM, Pig, Frontline Assembly
Typical stuff: the Cure, U2, Smashing Pumpkins, Roxy Music, Yes...
Shoegazer stuff like: My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Curve, Cocteau Twins, ...

Ice T's ck was pulled ..for political reasons...not cause it wasn't good.... AC
