lol at the funny pics

I only feel shady if I'm listening to Hip Hop while slaughtering buffalo in my windowless shed at 3am on Tuesdays.

A snare replaced by a shit sounding clap sample will always lead to shady activity IMO.

Are tarnce listeners shady, then?

I was being kind with the whole shit sounding clap sound. There's a certain charm when trance music uses equally sythetic clap sounds to enhance an overall sythetically created tune. When Curtis mayfields orchestral masterpieces get farted over by someone who actual thinks they could add value by adding jibes and tin pot clattering noises i find it quite offensive.

coming from a matter of personal taste with no offense intended to others who prefer otherwise, I have to agree 100% with you.....(it had some "charm" when P.E, N.W.A, Cypress Hill, etc....did it in the 80's and early 90's, on the premise of naming the sample derived....but after 1994, it was quite fatiguing.....)

FUNNY

I've lived 2 blocks away from The Alley for the past 14 years and think I walked in there once for a bloody mary. I can't even remember what it looks like inside.

What do you like about it?

boy, there sure are a lot of people who don't know much about hip hop that like to talk about it a whole lot.



probably the same people that think "ishkur's guide to electronic music" is an accurate history of electronic music.


i feel sorry for you poor souls.

I would not even waste the sorrow on the soul.....Those who would be inspired by the genre simply "ARE"......I think it is just a matter of personal musical taste. Of course there is great hip hop and people, master artists, innovators, at the top of the game, that is just common sense reality (I have always respected dr dre, and his "artist" roster, even though the music does not arouse me anymore).......But not everybody resonates with it. Or people grow out of it into other tastes, or they have what ever hang ups.........I know I have been totally into Metal (and feel the same about it, nothing new does it for me the way it did in my day), moved on into being totally into RAP (late 80's-early 90's before hip hop culture became as mainstream as today), and then settled into electronica......Who knows where I will find my muse tomorrow.
Besides all the anonymous fun and games of the thread, at the end of the day it comes down to real people, honor, integrity, morality, humanity and passion...... the musical differences are as negligible as the different colors of skin.....

you're one of the people i'm talking about. you don't know much about hip hop, but you can't keep your mouth shut about it.

its fine if you don't like it, everybody has their own taste. i don't really care what you like.

What offends me is that you feel like you need to express that you know something about it when it's clear that you don't know much.

you're so right, post 1994 I don't know anything about hip-hop, I stopped listening to it.
Thank you for pointing out the obvious. I was not aware that I implied something I knew nothing about.

Actually come to think of it I never really listened to hip-hop, only rap.....
