Crimes against Music

[Noble Savage]

Who do you think has had the most negative effect on the whole world of music.

Heres some examples

It could be Yoko Ono for her "alleged" involvement in the break up of the Beatles (denied by her)

Stock Aitken and Waterman - For ruining Chicago house music by fusing it with bubblegum pop and creating such disgusting acts like Rick Astley, Kylie Minogue, Samantha Fox ,Brother Beyond and ruining Bananarama.

Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider for creating the manufactured boyband (Note I have no problem with the Monkees ,they were annoyingly good)


Simon Cowell and Simon Fuller - too obvious


anymore anyone?

When it was no longer about music. But wait, what's that? Small groups of independant artists are actually making their own music and releasing it online for free? You don't say.

When I was a teen ,I used to listen to Ice T, Public Enemy ,Kool Moe Dee, LL Cool J (before THAT song came out) , GM Flash , Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince (when they were funny ) , Run D.M.C , Eric B and Rakim , EPMD ,Boogie Down productions , Whodini etc. and they were raw and unrefined. They were cool and urban ,then came 3 Miles High. I hated De La Soul instantly. They were boring and overly joyous. After that came Tribe, Queen L ,Monie Love and Kool DJ red alert. Thats when I woke up and started to listen to Metal and Heavy Rock and haven't looked back since.

Gladly since then we have NWA and it's derivatives and I have started to listen to Rap a little bit more.

So here we go. BpT the crap-lover is here. If despising ****** music, with no singing just ghetto talk in pidgin English in an off-beat manner, which talks of *****es and whores and ****ing and BJs and killing cops and rape and selling drugs and being a 'gangsta' is "elitism", then I am guilty as charged, and proud of it

Oh and the HIOBFOYIFPOGY speak is about as contributory to the English language as rap is to music, obviously.

Rap

QFT!

[Osceola]

The majority most definitely is. I can't take it anymore. Nothing like Tupac, Eminem or nothing. God it sucks.

[RZZZA]

See? I was right, rock is for total cocks.


Do you EVER see a rap fan making fun of or belitting rock music?

No, because all the cocks already are rock fans, not rap fans.


ROCK IS FOR COCKS ROCK IS FOR COCKS ROCK IS FOR COCKS

I can be ignorant and juvenile too

ROCK IS FOR COCKS EFF THE BEATLES

[Rush Limbaugh]

Do you EVER see a rap fan making fun of or belitting rock music?

How could they? Obviously they dont know what music is. Thats why they have to rip off the hook since they cant write any real music .

[boofhead]

Do you EVER see a rap fan making fun of or belitting rock music?

Maybe because is cannot be belittled?

I can be ignorant and juvenile too

If you like rap you don't have to try very hard
