[QUOTE="twwtww, post: 1416856, member: 4335"] [b]Rap @ da table[/b] Yeah, when me and my dawgs is doin' some city adventures we love to listen to rap at the table. Throw on "Cop Killa" when we have to fight da town watch or some "Snoop" when we hit the brothels. Nuttin' makes a driveby from a wagon with crossbows like some 'Lil Kim and of course you be needin' some "50 cent" and "Mo' Money, Mo' Problems" when splittin' da loot after bustin' some caps on some tricks who was flossin'! So in a nutshell, hell no we don't listen to (C)rap at the table. It's bad enough R(ap)TV, er I mean MTV forces it on you 24/7 as it is. And god forbid you turn on the radio, it's all you hear. Cripes for the longest time I thought those long haired, one chord, speed metal freaks were the most talentless musicians on the planet. They have been replaced by almost any (c)rapper. "I've always wondered why metalheads are the most intolerant people when it comes to music." That's easy. For YEARS Metal was crapped on by everyone. The metal bands & fans paid thier dues. All of the sudden rap/hip-hop shows up and because it's predominently Black, people are scared to tell you how bad it really sucks for fear of being branded a racist. I listen to some Run DMC & Sugar Hill Gang, but so much of the new stuff is horrible. All you have to do to be a rap star is buy your way onto MTV and you are guaranteed to sell a million CDs. Metal bands toured full time, clawed and scratched to get 1/100 of that exposure. It's no wonder Metal fans revile rap/hip-hop. When your claim to fame is being able to simply rhyme words to the same back beat that every other rapper uses, you don't deserve respect or toleration! [/QUOTE]
