so i kind of hate rap because all i've heard is radio stuff
but i love many kinds of music
so if someone gives some examples of really well done rap, it would be good

Going back to the lyrics thing, 50's aren't deep for sure but at least you can take it on the second degree and it becomes quite funny.

Metal lyrics on the other hand are so utterly bad there can't even be a second degree of appreciation there. It's so bad it's not even funny.

Oh and another point. At least when 50's rapping about guns and hustling and shit, he knows from experience. He isn't "frontin" as he would say.

Whereas all the metal nerds singing about apocalypse and satan and armageddon and whatever only have ever known their parents' basement and dungeons and dragons.


Shows what you know about metal.

Big L, Rakim, Nas.. they all have so many art songs -_-

Rap is just something you have to learn to listen to. If you're not open to it you won't ever understand the brilliance behind it. Every musicgenre can be good in its own kind, there's no need to bash it or anything. It all comes down to your personal taste.. If you don't like it, sure, but don't talk shit about it, since you most likely haven't even bothered to 'understand' the music then.

But I agree, 50 isn't the greatest indeed ^_^; but it's not like he's the worst rapper around either, he actually got a couple nice songs.. it's just that the stuff that most people have been hearing on tv and shit is all crap :o
It has a strong technique, but it lacks oo.

those of you saying Game was just leaching off of g-unit and eminem on the documentary.. your f*cking stupid your raised in compton selling drugs watching your back every minute your out of your house and apparently in it and your gonna start beef with the ones who are paying you 1 million dollars to write some "poetry"... wow either you guys have alot of money or your plain stupid...

and if you want a good true shit i suggest downloading~

Z-Ro - Mo-Town Don
Z-Ro - Tall Tale of A G

also:

Game was more anticipated than 50Cent anyways despite the fact that he was with g-unit because most people hardly knew dre was gonna stick him with G-Unit they just knew he was comin out with Aftermath but he was most anticipated and outsold 50Cent's CD*^^

Z-Ro is a pretty good rapper

yeh 300 bars totalled g-unit i dont like em anyways i just like to hear there responses to all of these i heard 50cent turned down a couple freestyles vs cassidy? not sure though =)


Game sucks. His whole album was nothing but hanging off of G-unit and Eminems dick. 300 bars was ok, but its nothing special, its just long as fuck.

Why would anyone vs cassidy? He's a fucking joke. I dont know one person that listens to him, other than the MTV crowd.


what the f*ck are you on? are you really that stupid? 50cents new cd was like a rock/punk record 2:30 songs rofl.. pathetic id be pissed buying that sh*t.. and lets see 50 put this many punches in a single song .. as soon as 50cent tops 300 bars in a song ill lay off em rofl.. he supposedly "murdered fat joe and jadakiss and took shots at nas" in his piggy bank song.. i saw like 1 hit per each rapper hes beefin with.. seriously wtf?

*btw* incase you didnt know cassidy's battled hella freestylers good cats and he recently retired from freestyling undefeated in his entire career.. so read up on it before you talk.. clown..

how about you people stop pretending you know what you are talking about

all rappers say they are undefeated etc. unles sthey have publicly lost

Cassidy beat freeway in a really gay battle, BIG DEAL

im not sure exactly what he did on fight klub, i dont even know if he battled anyone, but if he did im sure it wasnt anyone good anyway =) And Game was not more anticipated than 50cent dunno where yuo got that from, 50cent's original buzz > Game's by fuckloads ;O

They both arent that good, although games new cd > massacre mainly because production was so much better and game name dropping every song

Game and Memphis bleek were supposed to each put up 50k or something for a battle, of course it would never happen because the labels wouldnt want either of their products to get aired out

by the way i seriously doubt if cassidy lied about his freestyling career he would call out (at the time) the most famous and "Skilled" (yeh right) rapper that was "MainStream" if you will.. well known etc..

seems like everyone here listens to metal sometimes though. if your remember that "what album are you listening to today", like half of them where rather unknown metal bands (to the average american) . i think people here are missing the point of rap, it is really the complete opposite of metal to me.

when i listen to rap, i may be into the beat and music a lot, but ill for sure be listening to the lyrics and how they fit with the music and how it times right and if they are good or not. when i listen to metal, well i dont know like any of the lyrics like nearly all of the songs i have (most of the time because its not in english), and nor do i care. the voice becomes more of an instrument then something to be trying to listen to for words.

You dont need to same something to get it trhough a song.

Classical (spelling?) music has no lyrics at all, although it gets its message x1000 times better than any kind of music.
