I just don't like when you say the word ignorant. As if I'm unaware that there's perfectly good hip-hop music out there. Is it ignorance if I just don't care about it? I think apathetic would be a better descriptor.

ignorant - lack of knowledge - it applies, here.
i'm not trying to use it against you, in a derogatory fashion. |

Attempt to be witty all you want, your post seriously made me lol.
If you think MM is a "master of social comentary," it's you who are the ignorant one. |

Haha. Alright. I'm not gonna argue interpretation of a song, nor argue what MM--the biggest farce in showbusiness in the last 20 years--said it was written about. I don't believe a word that man says. He's like a modern-day PT Barnum. A sucker's born every minute? Well, he's got a lot of fans, if you know what I mean. He's successfully conned you into calling this "social comentary"? That's fine. To each his own, man.
I guess you're always gonna see what you want to see. I'm really sorry that you're getting all sensitive now that I've clued you in how you've been suckered all along. |

No but seriously, I got to get some sleep; I work at 4am. So lets all just agree to disagree. Or just post that youtube clip of Circulatory System that is supposed to make me feel salty or something.
But you know what? FUCK IT I'm gonna give The Suburbs another chance tonight! |

just so you know KRS-One was all about guns. and then there's the Criminal Minded album cover but you get the idea Not to derail your point but saying BDP wasn't about guns is really kind of silly. But, these guys are tools, why do you waste your words? the trio of them, i mean i don't necessarily dislike slunken he's ok as far as snobby obscurists go, samuel redman hates everything and has nothing positive to say ever because he's a basement dweller and soniclovenoise is the prototypical tiresome know-it-all. I mean there's a post on the SP board where he says you can "clearly" hear billy's guitar on the right and james's on the left or whatever. He's fucking toxic shoot him out of a fucking cannon. |

i thought my philosophy was on the album after By Any Means Necessary when he actually decided to put the guns down because *gasp* maybe that's why his DJ got shot.
we're on the same page though, dude. and i love me some gangsta shit anyway. I've knocked over 3 liquor stores this week because I was listening to Lil Wayne. |

bottom line is that people don't wish to look at the underlying decay of america, especially in the ghettos and would much rather blame the messenger. It's remarkable that racists still think that the music is influencing the hood rather than the fact that the ghettos in america are often brutal and uncompromising and these guys identified with the NWAs, Tupacs, and Biggies because they reflected their reality as opposed to De La Soul who grew up in suburban long island. No, the racist says "oh these nig---african americans are just emulating what they see on tv!" to a certain extent that's true but then again, it's the same MM/Columbine cypher. While the art has influence, it is not the driving force. To suggest that it is, suggests that black america is completely and totally without free will, and hence my claims of flat racism on the part of those who will just bag on rap because they don't even want to listen to it because it's "black". They can justify it all they want but that's the real reason, they don't want to assmiliate, they don't want to know, they want to just point the finger.
Not to say De La Soul is any less legitimate. They kick arse. |
