DINGDINGDING!!
We have our winners on today's most confused kids! Say Blackadder, why not educate them on the ways of awesome?
Today's commercial rap is, by general rule, all about your bling, your 3 sports cars, your AK, and your women. Commercial rap is exactly the kind of music that should be shot. Then eaten, *****, and buried.
Now, the older stuff is good. NWA is awesome, for example. Eminem is fantastic, though less so on "Encore". And we just pretend "Re-up" never happened, m'kay?
But to say rap is not music is just ignorance. It has a beat, which has to work well with the song, yes, but the real music is from the lyrics and how they're rapped. It's really a mix of song, speech, poetry and prose. It's different.
As for the "it takes no skill" comment, most commercial rap (Hi 50) could be done by a child, agreed. But a good rapper (Who ISN'T all about catchy beats) is clever, witty, and creative. Try saying this fast:
"Hip Hop is universal now, it's so commercial now it's like a circle full of circus clowns up in the circuit now"
Good, good. Now keep up that pace for [URL%3
OH GAWD ATTACK OF THE MUTILATED TAGS!
Things that Annoy Meta-Kirby v. Awesome
-Thumb wars. They NEVER go as you plan, because some little p
iss *** decides to "SNAKE IN THE GRASS" or "ATOM BOMB" or "I HATE PEOPLE SO I MAKE UP THUMB WAR MOVES BWA!".
-How the gymnasts for some countries don't smile during their performance. Isn't it supposed to entertain the crowd? How are you supposed to get the crowd going when you look like you have to take a crap with your stoic face....and such....yeah....
-When people ask the same question to you over and over....even through the days! I had a kid sit next to me in Honors Biology that has asked me 5 times if I'm in a band. I'm like "NO SHUT. UP."
-When people don't put in the effort to do their homework. I get home at 3:30 pm, leave for diving at 4 pm, get to diving at 5 pm, dive until 7 pm and leave, and get home at 8 pm. At that time, I have to take a shower, eat dinner, AND do my homework....and I STILL get it done. You seriously want to tell me that YOUR lazy butt couldn't get your homework done? Ugh....just shut up.
