To me, Hip Hop is comedy.
Kids are listening to the “old stuff”.
Good.
It took longer than disco to die, but at least it’s dying.
I don't see the draw. I see rappers as individuals who can't sing or play an instrument. They merely get on stage, chant and lurch about making hand gestures, sometimes grabbing body parts.
The current zeitgeist to go ghetto in dress, language and music is laziness, from my point of view.
having to listen to hip hop is like torture
The problem with hip-hop is that it isn’t music. It is jarring and discordant.
What is really annoying these days is that they take a good song from, for example, Michael Jackson, and then inject rap into it. It’s a worse surprise than getting Rick rolled. I usually change the station when this happens. I always change the station because of rap and Alanis Morisette.
My guess is that all of the really good Hip-Hop artists have now been shot, as being shot is required to have any credibility on the street. So, kind of hard to maintain the genre (a little Leftist lingo).
Laziness is their defining feature.
Like hollywood and public education.
Probably because the Africans have gone full country now that “historians” have convinced whitey that the “masked man”, Bass Reeves, invented country western music when he wasn’t riding with Tonto or rodeoing with the Indians.
Primal beats for savages is a key indicator the person is a low IQ moron. That, and just how many times can the attitude of a street punk be entertaining.
Wow, “hip hop” is 50 years old. What’s amazing is I could not tell you a single hip hop “song” title. Even more amazing is that I don’t think I’ve ever heard a “hip hop” song in those 50 years. Is it the same as “rap”?
Somehow some “rap” crap leaked into my Spotify and it thought I liked that crap. Now and then a “rap” crap would play and I couldn’t hit “skip” fast enough. I couldn’t find a way to disabuse Spotify of the notion that I liked it, but it seems to have faded out of my channels. Maybe it is smart enough to know that when I instantly skip it means I don’t like it. Spotify needs a “I HATE it” button.
They can’t bury it soon enough!
The gym I go to plays that rot gut. It’s like getting pounded on the head with a club.
Try DooWop The best of the Duprees!
Heart and Soul by the Cleftones.
Please, just make it and its various offshoots go away.
OMG...Disco's dead? Please don't tell me that. What do I do with the disco ball hanging in my garage?
