If people wanna enjoy rap. Good for them. But PLEASE don't call it for anything other than what it is. Degrading, violent, subversive, hypocritical crap
Do you really think rap is poplaur because black people listen to it. I really hope you are smarter than that. Have you ever been to a hip hop or rap show? If you give white kids a choice to go see Young Jezzy or Kanye West or go see Moby or any other techno show see where they go. By the way all rap is not degrading please next time you you talk please educate yourself then talk.
Well, in my group of friends we choose to go see the techno artist. Yes, lets please compare old dj's to new rappers. Thats like me saying do you want to go see Paul Van Dyke or Mystikal....
But anyways, I've been to a few rap shows: dre, snoop and busta (my favorite). But I have to say that the dj's put on a better show. Tiesto has been the hands down best show i've been to, of any music genre.
