Truely, I am sure there are plenty of tacky and tasteless people
who watch this board who appreciate that trash. I mean considering the
jokes (and sometimes not even close to jokes) that are posted (e.g. that
joke a bit back about the sexual barometer) you can always expect a few
loons to step forward and protect their favorite trash.

The minister looked out of his study and saw Mrs. Antwerp, a lady
from his congregation that was well-known for spreading stories,
coming down the sidewalk. He told his wife he didn't want to see
her, and stayed in his study.
An hour later, he asked "Honey, is that awful gossip gone now ?"
She replied "She left some time ago. Mrs. Antwerp is here now."

WRONG! Rap is to music, as the YUGO is to cars.

Alright...
------======****** F L A M E O N ! ******======------
I've never flamed anyone before, but this warrants it. What an
incredibly stupid and mindless waste of everyone's time this post is.
What a calculated and deliberate attempt to start a flame war over
_nothing_ which can achieve _nothing whatsoever_ but will waste lots of
bandwidth, force people to sort through the flames, and make the whole
atmosphere of the net worse.
Nothing useful can come of a debate about how good rap is. Nothing
useful can come of slagging off someone else's tastes. Only harm can
come of insulting people on account of their taste. Only egotism run
wild can motivate such an attack. Only stupidity beyond cure can
inhibit the mechanisms which normally restrain one from posting
something which is nothing but inflammatory.
Get off this net for about a month and think about what you've done:
you're a disgrace to it.
And before you reach for the 'f' key, I have already anticipated your
mindless reply of personal insults. Don't bother - flames will be
answered with napalm.
------======****** F L A M E O F F ******======------
For everyone else: check the summary.

Poor baby! :(
Flame Virgin warning!!!!!! It was funny so I posted it! Remember
thats what rec.humor and rec.humor.d are for? The post was not ment
to start a flame war, but if its going to happen let it happen!
I also don't feel sorry for a rising flame war or wasting
lots of bandwidth.

Yeah, people like yourself for example.
You don't like Rap 'cause you don't
know what it is or what it's about.
So like a jerk you think it's bad
instead of trying to learn something

*This* is an example of Rap?? It reminds me more of that Alice Cooper

Which reminds me of so-called POLITICAL rap. As in guys like Public
Enemy, suppliers to the world of an update to the Horst Wessel Song.
Here's something I concocted during lunch one day three years back,
while the brain-dead one was still President: I've updated it.
We're the Public Enemy and we're here to say
That the Presi-den-cy is a heartbeat away!
Ol' Georgie can't raise it, so Barbara do tell,
So when I get into the race
I'm gonna give 'em hell!
(GRUNT. WHEEZE. GRUNT. WHEEZE.)
I'm declarin' today for the Pres-i-dential race
An' I'm runnin' real hard, never runnin' in place,
An' if you don' vote for me to win that race
I'm gonna come out to your house
An' bust your mudda*$*#in' face!

Benjamin H. Henry,,2687890,
Maybe you should be more open, Bill. I mean, some people would criticize
the crap metal that you listen to. All music has its asthetic value, and all
have a proper mood and time to be listened to. Even though rap and metal
aren't my favorites, there are times when I am in the mood to listen to them.
I do have my favorites, as we all do. But that doesn't make our tastes any
better than anyone else's. Even though I have no idea why some people can
stand to subject themselves to such horror by listening to (c)rap, I
respect their right to torture themselves. We all have the right to our
own oppinions Bill, even though some of ours may be better. So turn up
your speed-demon-asshole-from-hell music Bill, and feel content that you are
right with your own personal opinion, and all the others are right, but
they have the right to be wrong if they want to. Rap is (c)rap, but you
can listen to it if you want to.

Is this all that rappers can say is "word" and "yo"?
Streaker,Stall # 1,,
like i have a gun, if you don't like rap either eat lead or jump back.
There is nothing in metal lyrics that say if you don't listen to it
that someone may shoot you.
The original post was a humourus thing. I got that idea from a
friend and decided to post it to let the world hear of it. I
knew when i posted it that there would be some sort of flame war
since i may hurt some persons precious music life (said in a sarcasric
way). I didn't care, I wanted to post it.
Now if people still want to wage war over that one, what was it 6-7
lines, post that i will continue the fight.
All in all, rap is crap.

So that makes it correct? Grow up.
It`s Lord Hippo to you, dog breath.
What do you mean, rap is crap? It's wonderful! Rap 'artists' can do anything.
They can invent new words! They can rhyme any two words together, like
'uungh' and '[grunt]'... And their vocabulary... so expansive ... 'fuck shit
fuck shit mutthafuckin [grunt]'.

It's terribly disappointing, isn't it.
I think your talents are wasted on being a music critic -- you should try your
hand at more rhymes. Man, you are the freshest!!!
(How about slippin' a rhyme in that .sig of yours - you know, with BIG letters?)
Stay cool,
Melissa C Merrill
some preformers I like better than others, Like Bobby Brown.
The only main objection I have to rap is the language. I'm
a youth counselor at church, and most of the teens listen to
rap. Most of the stuff that they listen to has disgusting
language, but a fun beat. My question is this: do all rap
groups resort to m****** f***** and s*** etc., as nouns, pronouns,
verbs, adjectives....?
Please don't flame. I'm not trying to stir up trouble, or insult
anyone. But I really am curious as to whether such language is in
all rap. Again, don't tear me apart simply because I'm asking a
question...

Don't you asswipes know that Rap AND Metal are for the most part
nothing but adolescent rebellion against the parents that should
have aborted the sorry pieces of shit that love this stuff in the
first place, instead of giving you money and a place to stay while you
learn to be sorry parasites on society with no hope of ever matching
the success level that your hated parents achieved??????
Sheeesh, I used to think abortion was wrong, but now I wish we could
make it retroactive.

I don't understand this discussion. I've always considered rap to be something
separate from music; something between rhyming and music; a totally new form
of expression. I would think rappers would not like to be lumped with other
musicians; but then, I always wanted to start something new.
