<p>is the best music ever. what.</p>
<p>It's dead <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB_RomDrVMg%5B/url%5D">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vB_RomDrVMg</a></p>
<p>pop music is dead. from pop-punk to crunk.</p>
<p>the underground is where the hook-up is.</p>
<p>hip hop is soooo dumb. I can't stand it. But we all have our opinions.</p>
<p>Hip hop is amazing. You should not base your view of hip hop solely on whatever's on mtv or the radio because that is not hip hop. That is commercial trash.</p>
<p>The stuff from the golden age of hip hop is amazing. It's very underappreciated.</p>
<p>And some of the underground hip hop of today is such innovative stuff (although... some of it is similar to the mainstream... just like indie rock). Nevertheless, everybody should check out anticon. It is a collective-turned label. Their music is perhaps some of the most progressive and experimental work in hip hop. They are taking hip hop to places it has never gone before, lifting the conventions of hip hop from their work. And I believe the first cLOUDDEAD album (s/t) is a classic... nothing like it at all.</p>
<p>Real rap music is too disgusting, vulgar, and violent for most people. Thats why I like whitewashed rap.</p>
<p>I don't like Hip Hop. It used to be good before all the stupid G-Unit crap took over. I only like Nas (especially "One Mic") nowadays. But back in the day, when I was in elementary school, it was all about Biggy, Tupac, Dre, and Eazy-E. Man was I an original gangsta!</p>
<p>My really, really nerdy, uptight, and awkward APUSH teacher loves old school hip hop. It's funny =)</p>
<p>Grrrr! Thanks for following my post up with that; are you implying I'm "really nerdy, uptight, and awkward?"</p>
<p>Nope! I wasn't saying that old school hip-hop is nerdy. I was saying that the combination of my skinny, pale, bookish teacher with hip-hop is ... slightly awesome and slightly confusing =)</p>
<p>Oh don't worry, you don't have to explain yourself, I was just kidding (always am, just in case it happens again in the future.)</p>
<p>I know, but you asked a question... so, being the polite and considerate person that I am, I had to reply =)</p>
<p>Hee-hee-hee... hee.</p>
<p>I'm an enormous music snob and have hated rap/hip-hop for a very, very long time... but I also secretly love it... shhh!</p>
<p>dude, i like indie rock, but it can't. lighten. up. ever.</p>
<p>therefore, digable planets is where it's at. relaxed hipster charm without the pretension or crippling seriousness of white hipsters.</p>
<p>French hip-hop is good (Diam's, Keny Arkana, etc). All other hip-hop is @%@^@.
Alternative rock for the win :)</p>
<p>what aggravates me the most is how people that live lives completely opposite of what you hear in rap music will act as if they're all hardcore and listen to tons of rap. and believe me, i know how lame it really is (i used to be like that).</p>
<p>also, when i used to listen to TONS of real rap, i noticed that it was *<strong><em>ing up my mood, for no reason. i would listen to about an hour or two of rap on a given day and be *</em></strong>ed off, when i could be doing more productive things.</p>
<p>i won't try to diss all rap though. there are some artists that are respectable.</p>

yo boy r u tryin 2 diss my homies coz were gonna kik ur azz</p>
<p>Hip-hop aint what it used to be. The nineties were truly amazing for hip-hop, and I don't think I'll ever get sick of that era. Notorious BIG, KRS-One, the original eminem (soundbombing, the marshal mathers lp), Erick Sermon, man those were the days.</p>
<p>Ever since 50 cent came along I've been listening to house and trance. I also threw my TV in the garbage 5 years ago. Best decision of my life.</p>
<p>Sorry I meant the slim shady lp.</p>
<p>Don't forget Public Enemy (they started in the late 80s though), A Tribe Called Quest, Organized Konfusion, De La Soul... there are lesser known artists I'm not mentioning as well. But it's sad to see hip-hop in the state it's in right now. The kids listening to the popular stuff out there today are not listening to the hip-hop of old when it was real, intelligent, thought provoking, interesting.</p>
