No skin off of my nose, and I certainly don't give a shit how you conduct yourself with regards to musical tastes and such. All I'm saying is it will reflect poorly on you, not me or anyone else.

I'm all for putting Klan members and homophobes in their place, but it's not as though R&B fans picket outside of rock concerts or blow up SubPop's recording studios, is what I'm saying.

So what? I'm fully entitled to my opinion on music, and I'm fully entitled to dislike intensely the type of music I dislike intensely. I'd much rather be blunt than be tactful about it, so people know not to bring it up in front of me again. I don't hate Deimos for liking R&B and hip-hop, but I do hate R&B and hip-hop, so why not point this fact out?

It is music, just a different kind of music. Music that focuses more on the beat and lyrics than melody and such.

It's a shame that the majority of rap "lyrics" tend to be about rape and murder and the degredation of woman.

Okay, maybe that's not true. But the most popular rappers lyrics are, and therefor they set a generalization for the entire genre.

That being said, there is not a single example of rap/hip hop that I like. Though I admit it is good dance music.

Actually, rape and murder was only in 80s... its more about being a pimp and getting all the girls. However, the kind I like is more along the lines of getting krunk. Like lil' john and the eastside boyz.

And this is better how? I don't believe that music turns people into physopaths... but I can tell you that the stupidest, most self absorbed people I like are rap fans.

Coincidence?

Maybe. Maybe not.

Actually most psychos belong to the heavy metal fan group. Most retarded people belong to the punk rock group. These were the people that failed at my schools.

Also on another note, I said the kind I listened too was different then the whole pimp crap. Read my post all the way through next time. GG

And? I made a statement about popular rap artists and their lyrics. What kind of rap you like has no relevance to my point.
