Rap is generally for people who care only about lyrics.
Which makes me wonder why people are buying 50 cent's albums. actually now its more about people caring about beats and club music  although the true people like it for the lyrics and the production ;o
if you listen to the radio just in the car getting from place to place, yes but if your staying true to what your doing and the life you chose listening to rap your going to break down the lyrics and try to get a picture of what the person is saying.. thats why i like Z-Ro cuz alot of his songs tell about a certain incident in his life.

What do number of sales represent? what do you think?
Do you buy albums because you have nothing else better to spend your money on or because you like that particular band/music?
WOW YOU'RE STUPID! People download all the time, and that doesn't count for record sales. Radio success doesn't translate in to record sales, either, ask Megadeth. They had a couple of number 1 hits on Billboard within the last ten years, but the albums sold for shit.
Pull your head out of your ass, please.

That's not what metal is about anyhow.
Here are some real metal lyrics:
Red flash clouds
Choking out the morning sky
They said it'd never come,
We knew it was a lie
All forms of life die now,
The humans all succumb
Time to kiss your ass goodbye,
The end has just begun
Distorted figures walk the street,
It's 1999
Weeds once underneath the feet
Have grown to vines
Bodies melted like a candle,
A land without a face
No time to change your fate,
No time left, it's too late
The aresenal of Megadeth can't be rid of they said
And if it comes the living will envy the dead
Racing for power and all come in last
No winning, first stone cast
This falsehood wordly peace
Its treaties soon will cease
No one will be left to prove
That humans existed
Maybe soon the children
Will be born open fisted
We all live on one planet
And it will all go up in smoke
Too bad they couldn't see this lethal energy
And now the final scene, a global darkening
Dig deep the piles of rubble and ruin
Towering overhead both far and wide
There's unknown tools for World War III
Einstein said, 'We'll use rocks on the other side'
No survivors, set the world afire!
Tell me that's about getting depressed and cutting yourself, or whining about life.
Here's more for ya:
Thermal count is rising
In perpetual writhing
The primordial ooze
And the sanity they lose
Awakened in the morning
To more air-pollution warnings
Still we sleepwalk off to work
As our nervous systems jerk
Pretending not to notice
How history has forbode us
With the greenhouse in effect
Our environment is wrecked
Now I can only laugh
As I read our epitaph
We end our lives as moles
In the dark of the dawn patrol
More:
Born from the dark,
In the black cloak of night.
To envelope its prey below,
Deliver to the light,
To eliminate your enemy,
Hit them in their sleep,
And when all is won and lost,
The spoils of war are yours to keep.
Great nations built from the bones of the dead,
With mud and straw, blood and sweat,
You know your worth when your enemies
Praise your architecture of aggression.
Ensuing power vacuum,
A toppled leader dies
His body fuels the power fire,
And the flames rise to the sky.
One side of his face a kiss,
The other genocide,
Time to pay with your ass,
A worldwide suicide.
Born from the dark,
In the black cloak of night.
To envelope its prey below,
Deliver to the light,
To eliminate your enemy,
Hit them in their sleep,
And when all is won and lost,
The spoils of war are yours to keep.
All rap is doing is the same things rock did twenty years ago, without the talent. Motley Crue did it all about girls, drugs, cars, everything, they sang about it, and they played some awesome music with it. It wasn't just a fucking beat, either. KISS did songs about girls all the time, practically every band has done songs about drugs. The rappers aren't doing anything original by talking about drugs, cars, women, big houses, and money, because it was all done before by the hardrock and metal groups. Now most of it's just emo bullshit.

ok, if all rap is like 50 cent then all metal is like linkin park and evenescence, its a dumbass way to look at it. of course there are crap rappers, just the same way there is crap rock (for a while there was more crap rock than crap rap played on the radio, now its more flipped). if you think every single rapper sings about bitches, gunz, money, and drugs all the time, then you really need to think long and hard how illogical that is.

eminem (sorry) has or had some of the cleverest lyrics with the most complicated rhyme schemes in rap. it's gotten worse with his newest album, but the eminem show made me laugh out loud many times. still not much to talk about as far as content goes. 50 cent is just fucking terrible, the only reason he gets anywhere is because he has help from the best producers in the business, not to mention a thug-life image that makes tupac blush. i just want to kill people when they tell me how great 50 cent is.
i think rap is a novelty act that'll either mature into something worth listening to or just eventually squeeze itself into a niche genre for african americans or wiggers. whatever. please just let people stop singing 50 cent in the locker room please.

Haven't read this thread as I absolutely loathe 50 cent. But just noticed that he is making a film 
And there is a absolute quality director for it as well.. Jim Sheridan! Gawd Shame on you!

rap is good to dance to 
|
only reason 50 is famous is because of m&m and dre anyway they are just 2 lazy bitches that hire (slave 50) to make them some money.
i like rap alot but rock is 10 times better :S

Wow, fine some better rap plz. That's like comparing Britney Spears and Luther Vandross cuz they both pop.. No way man.. and anyone who says rap is for retards is retarded.
Wtf is up with this board and then some idiot (ZIA) findin some of the worst lyrics she can to flame 50 who the world knows sucks only to bring indirect flame to other rappers.
Here's a classic for ya, tell me how this isn't ill? This was back in the early 90's...
Before a blunt, I take out my fronts
Then I start to front, matter of fact, I be on a manhunt
You couldn't catch me in the streets without a ton of reefer
That's like Malcom X catching the Jungle Fever
King poetic, too much flava, Im major
Atlanta ain't braver, I pull a number like a pager
Cuz I'm an ace when I face the bass
40 side is the place that is giving me grace
Now wait, another dose and you might be dead
And I'm a Nike head, i wear chains that excite the feds
And aint' a damn thing gonna change
I'ma performer, (I'll) show the mic warmer was born to gain
Nas, why did you do it
You know you got the mad fat fluid when you rhyme, it's halftime
Right...
It's halftime...
It's like that, you know it's like that
I got at him, now you never get the mic back
When I attack, there ain't an army that could strike back
So I react never calmly on a hype track
I set it off wit my own rhyme
Cuz I'm as ill as a convict who kills for phone time
I'm max like cassettes, I flex like sex
In your stereo sets, Nas will catch wreck
I used to hustle, now all I do is relax and strive
When I was young, I was a fan of the Jackson 5
I drop jewels, wear jewels to never run it
Wit more kicks than a baby in a mother's stomach
Nasty Nas has to rise, kid, surprise
This is exercise til the microphone dies
Back in '83, I was an MC sparking
But I was too scared to grab the mic's in the park and
Kick my little raps cuz I thought niggaz wouldn't understand
And now in every jam I'm the phucking man
I rap in front of more niggaz than in the slave ships
I used to watch C.H.I.P.S, now I load glock clips
I got to have it, I miss Mr Magic
Versatile, my style switches like a faggot
But not a bisexual, I'm an intellectual
Of rap, I'm a professional and that's no question, yo
These are the lyrics of the man, you can't near it, understand
Cuz in the streets, I'm well known like the number man
In my place wit the bass and format
Explore rap and tell me Nas ain't all that
And next time I rhyme, I be foul whenever I freestyle
I see trial niggaz say I'm wow
I hate a rhymebiter's rhyme
Stay tuned, Nas, soon the real rap comes at halftime
More kicks than a baby in a mother's stomach? PUA~ Golden.
Not to mention his rhyme scheme and the way he raps it doesn't do justice as text on a page.
So slick~ So smoove, plus his technique is one of the best rap has.. but very few here coudl catch the subtleties in his rap cuz yall just hate.

Um.. are you like retard?? My argument from the beginning is that the hiphop genre is getting more and more popular than the rock genre these days. So unless you're trying to counter my opinion your post is pointless. So let's just assume that you're trying to counter my point.
Say out of 150 people 100 people download mp3s and 50 people buy albums. Now, unless you have a valid source to prove that more rock fans download mp3s then hiphop fans my statement stays true. Because really what counts is the distribution (%) of the sales between different genres, not the number of sales itself.
I don't know why you bother to mention radio hits when it's not really significant. Again, unless you have a valid source to prove that there were more radio hits of rock genre than others, your statement is useless.
I'm not trying to argue that the music industry in whole are not declining, sure it is.. I totally agree.. so think before you post and before you tell me to pull my head out of of my ass, keep in your mind that unlike you, I don't have the talent to talk out of my ass.

Every genre of music will have groups that produce crap. Posting lyrics from those groups in attempt to belittle somebody else's musical preference is really quite lame, and attempting to generalize the entire genre by it is even worse.
