all those who think rap isn't a real musical art form or not a proper musical genre, fuck you!
(adthomp, i'm talking to you by the way)
rap is an art form, if you can't appreciate it, shut the fuck up. you don't need to say "rap isn't real music, it's just a drum machine"
fuck you
One of many others who agrees with me! :D (take notes thedrocks)
wow, it's funny how rap topics always become aggresive!
This is about rappers voices not what your favourites are!
I already said dre has a great voice and busta's got a great rough voice.
Ja rule's a dick, he puts that voice on ................ :lol:
Eminem haterz, there's always one ................
i'm not an aggresive person, per se, it's just that some people's ignorance can really frustrate me.Quote:

adthomp has complete ignorance for anything he doesn't like
he can't accept anything else can be good, even if it's listened to by millions worldwide.
if adthomp could accept that rap is music then everything would be cool
p.s. busta and xzibit have very similar voices, as you say it's pretty rough and gravelly, but sounds great. most of busta's beats are pretty good too, although i haven't heard much from xzibit lately
2Pac ?!?!??! RnB??!?! what super strong steaming pile of shit have u been hovering around to make u think that? i think Xzibit and 2PAc cover the Deep Voice easy. Em has a tight unique vioce. and dre has that mellow tight voice. Talib sounds pretty tyteQuote:

The "rapper" doesn't even program the drum machine. All he does is write some gay lyrics about sex, drugs or how it was so hard growing up on the streets and if they can't think of a word that rymes they make up a new one. Then all the mindless gangstas start saying them.
make up new words like what??
and how can you call rappers mindless?
is it not possible that they have intelligence, or would admitting that throw a spanner in the works of your argument?
I said the gangsters were mindless.
yes, how exactly do you define mindless?Quote:

edit: would it be possible for you to list some of these new words invented by rappers?
They see a rapper wear baggy clothes then the gangsters wear baggy clothes. A rapper says a shoe is "tight" gangsters buy, steal or jump people for the shoes. They start useing the made up words. And i think anyone whose talent only consists of looking good and getting up to dance to a beat machine is not a musician.
New words- "word" "yo" "sup" "fo sho" "shizill" "boyy" "frontin" are a few.
so now you're saying that because fashion follows music, it's a bad thing?
it doesn't only happen in rap, how many people do you see each day wearing baggy jeans, huge chains and caps that are "grungers" or "moshers".
you can't say that because those who follow music wear the same clothes as the stars that the musical genre itself is inherently flawed.
p.s. you still haven't listed any "made up" words yet
edit: above words added while typing
"word" is a new word?? wtf, how silly are you?Quote:

how long has "yo" been in use, and is it limited to only rap?
"fo sho" as you say, is a slant on for sure, it is not a new phrase in itself.
"shizil" i have never personally heard in any rap songs
"boyy" wtf again, boy is a real word, how can you say that rappers put an extra 'y' on? they may just extend the first 'y', they need not add another one.
"frontin'" is another slant on fronting. it's not a new word
i know some rock band do it but nothing i listen to. the thing is that every rapper does dance around or do there gangsta thing.
"you can't say that because those who follow music wear the same clothes as the stars that the musical genre itself is inherently flawed."
there is a word for that, poser.
--they use the words in the wrong context and give them a new meaning. snoop dawg says shizzle
so because the rock you listen do doesn't use the word "yo", that's ok for rock, but for rap it's not allowed. i wouldn't think you listened to rap either, so why does it bother you to the extent it does?
i've seen quite a few rap videos in my time, and i very rarely see rappers dancing. is this dancing in the classical ballroom snese? or is it a new form of dancing they have invented?
and what does doing their gangsta thing mean?
if you mean carrying guns for protection then maybe they really need to carry those guns. for example, probably the hottest artist currently (50 cent) has been shot a total of 9 times.
also, a lot of people are interested in the "gangsta thing".
what's wrong with people posing?
if some people think they look good wearing new clothes or doing the "gangsta thing" then who are you to rain on their parade?
more made up words and phrases
- that the mother f*** "cut" "dawg".
- wansta
- cracka
- your grill is wack dawg
- off the hizzle for shizzle
Why arn't the rap videos about the drum machine.
--posing is being something you're not. I think theres something wrong with that

posing is showing off
motherf**ker is not a new word, it's an amalgamation of two current words, and has been used for many years (and not just in the rap world too)
i assume by wansta you mean wanksta?
"cracka" isn't a new word either
"wack" has been used for may years and grew up in black culture, not rap
i'm not even gonna address off the hizzle for shizzle :D
that, the, your, is, wack, off, the, for and mother f*** are all not new word that rappers made. I thought you might be able to figure that out. :blink:
showing off is showing off posing is (from the dictionary) to affect an attitude or character usually to deceive or impress
A funny one that rappers say a lot is "i'm real" which none are.
