its not that I hate rap its just that I am not a fanatic I guess. I get to appreciate rap music, probably depends on the artist which are just a handful

during my summer vacation I heardthis radio station down in the south Atlanta GA. 88.5 its a radio staion from Georgia State university. they play the best underground hip-hop and hip-hop instrumentals I ever heard. they got a website but they don't put up their playlist so I don't know who the artist are. I've e-mailed them and asked them for the playlist and still waiting for a reply.

I'll post whatever I can get from them



I'll be waiting on an update to this! thumbsup.gif

I'm still waiting for a reply from the radio station DarkSinister.

here is a link to their web site. link

I keep telling my sister to go over to the station and ask for the play list during the undergroun and instrumental hip-hop shows since she goes to the school, but she won't disgust.gif

super pancake -_- not even sure if he listen's to rap any more, i got fam's up there, they say ppl bootleg yayo's album
Super Pancake
I don't listen to rap that much any more, unless its recomended. Of course every artist gets bootleg and mixed especially G-Unit, Jay Z, and Tupac. I don't know about Yayo but half of the city into hip-hop or club music feels 50 and G-unit the other half don't. I don't feel him and I have to put up with my neighbor who blast G-unit all day disgust.gif damn he could get annoying when he starts to sing along with it. He only a kid but I can forgive his taste in music.

According to Billboard.com, Kanye West's 'Late Registration' made 2X Platinum, and is holding strong at #5. Young Jeezy, 1X Platinum at #15. Tony Yayo however, isn't even in the top 50 anymore. Tony Yayo's 'Thoughts of a Predicate Felon' is currently at #57, the guy never even sold 500,000 albums, didn't even go Gold. Even Pretty Rick went Gold, lol. I guess 50's pretty pissed at him right now because he didn't make a lot of cash grin2.gif

Good luck Yayo rolleyes.gif

G-G-G-GGGGGGGGGG-Unot!


Not even 500,000? I guess he did not reach his goal of 625,000 in the first week thumbsup.gif

Would you consider it a failure if you sold less than a certain amount of records?

Of course, I mean not a failure but I'd be disappointed with myself if I don't sell a certain amount my first week, I wanna sell about 625,000 my first week, otherwise I'm not gonna be too happy.

Who exactly are you? Did 2PAC4LIFE bring you to this site?

But anyway, the space on the side where you put a picture is called an 'Avator', as the below would be known as the 'Signature', or 'Sig' if you prefer. You can insert a picture by clicking 'My Controls' on the very top of every page. In the Controls page at the left margin, there will be an 'Edit my Signature' and 'Edit my Avator settings' link where you can follow instructions from there to insert pictures.

I hesitate buying albums when I see covers like these

GAY!






Disclaimer: My opinion of the album cover does express my opinion or views on homosexuals or anything homosexual in nature
codenamecloud
i will admit that the cover was pretty gay (sorry to all the homosexuals) but when you listen to some of his underground s**t it is pretty good. right now i prefer to listen to the songs that you do not hear on the radio. i really do not like mainstream rap. the street wars cds are always good. but listen to some of his other songs. What about cannibus peoiple. do you guys like his stuff. let me know
a_blue_fish
The only rap I ever hear is from my roommate XD But what I hear from her I quite like. Sadly don't know any names at the moment, but, yay for people who like rap!
Super Pancake
Cannibus is nice I think we mentioned him here once or twice. But i did not get much into it because at that time I started to cut down on rap music especially the hard core stuff.

Mainstream flat out suck and you if you go back several threads you can see how much we hate it.

Camron got beef with someone blink.gif ? Or is it the whole G-Unit thing? They probably died out...I hope they do. I think another group, whom have their passions to be rich and famous, should go and try not to spoil the mainstream fans as we underground lovers will take what is made many feet under grin2.gif

i just have to say that i hate rap. i am more passionate aboput how much i hate rap than music i actually like. listeing to rap is like being tortured. Edit; removed obscene comment. the onoly thing i hate mopre than rap is people that tell me rap is music & that it is "actually really good if you just listen to it." i wish all you people would just drop off the planet.

Crab,

It would be appreciated if you voiced your opposition in a more civil manner, your continued participation here depends on it.

Super Pancake
Why can't people read the title first what is the point of coming in here and bashing it. You don't like rap why come in here?

Edit; removed inflametory remark. Pancake, the request applies to everyone, you shouldn't have to be reminded. Why would somebody just create an account and talk about how they hate rap and not post anywhere else.

Did you have to censor everything else I wrote! I think an existing member on U.M. posted that!

You know, maybe Hitler was right when he said not everyone deserved to live. I say we take social Darwinism into our hands and send Crab to the gas chamber. grin2.gif

Just kidding, you are welcome to have your own opinion. You may not like Rap or hip hop because you can't understand Ebonics. It took me a while to learn to understand what was being said. Once you can understand what is being said, it is much more enjoyable to listen to.

Something very interesting about Rap music is that it talks about animalistic behaviour. Very immoral behaviour sometimes, but I still like it.

QUOTE
Once I attended a lecture by Dr. Stephen Halpern, the master of music and music physiology. He said something very interesting that I will never forget. He stated that the entire human body is a receiver of sound vibrations. Our ears are not the only organ that is sensitive to sound vibrations. He stated that the chakras (the spiritual centers in the body) are greatly influenced by sound vibrations. For example, our sexual organs (the lowest chakra) are more sensitive to low rhythmic beats. Our heads (the highest chakra) are more sensitive to higher beat-less vibrations. This may explain why music with a low rhythmic beat is so popular among young people with raging sexual hormones. The low rhythmic beat played an important role in the tribal rituals of early human cultures around the world. Spiritual enlightenment occurs when you spiritually activate the body's chakras from the lowest to the highest using varying levels of vibration and music.


You may be interested to listen to the music you hear after you die. It is beutifull.

Here's' a link

Rap music is all about the beat. And usually it talks about doing bad things, or at least the gangster rap I listen to does. Dead Wrong by Biggie smalls for example

Actually, no..I didn't. But as seeing that Jay-Z has retired, he will unofficially spit in the mic once again rofl.gif .

I know a lot of you heard Kanye's 'GoldDigger' song. But the very last line always happens to capture my attention, and I really want to know what he means by, "But when you get on he leave yo ass for a white girl".

I've heard on the internet, from other black americans/canadians/europeans/etc. that when they date black women, they have to go through so much drama, and other negatives in life as dating white women isn't so dramatic or negative.
codenamecloud
i guess that makies sense but i just think that girls in general carry drama. but i dont wanna get off the subject here. anyways, but i think you are right when you say that jay will come back. he cant just up and leave. some of his ---- is pretty good but like everyone else they all have their drawbacks. and i actually liked some of the stuff that jin makes. i still remember the days of BET when he was crowned champ. or when him and posterboy came back for the anniversary show. good tv

Sorry, I didn't read 66 pages, but I been listening to rap since I was in the fifth grade and my cousin got a copy of Illmatic. I been hooked ever since. Went from Illmatic to Paid in Full to Resurrection to Strictly Business to By All Means Necessary to 93 'Til Infinity to Infamous and just evolved from there. Now I pretty much just stick to the underground and older stuff since I'm not really into the mainstream. Brother Ali, Jedi Mind Tricks, Sage Francis, Living Legends, Cage, Ras Kass, Supastition, Immortal Technique, Necro, Aesop Rock, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Lost Boyz, Big Daddy Kane, Company Flow, Kool G Rap, EPMD, Common, Big L, Slick Rick, Rakim, and KRS-One is some of the stuff that I listen to on a regular basis just off the top of my head. Top two on my list though are Nas and especially Canibus because they're the two best lyricists alive, just in my opinion of course.
codenamecloud
i think that cannibus is one of the better mcs out there. funny to listen to as well. ever hear that one when they are in a courtroom and the song is the trial. good stuff. i believe it had Redman in it. I like his stuff as well
