DUBCC - Tha Connection > Outbound Connection

I hate to say this but...hip-hop/rap is negative music

<< < (3/13) > >>

Don Jacob:
actually rock is less negative than rap...

on the outside when you see bands like:


AC DC
Metallica
Black Sabbath

you think that they're satanic and promote evil and shit

i  use to for years say "fuck rock, that shit is for white boy satanists....i like rap because it's real" the reality  is rap is the least real music when you compare how much  BS is out there....yeah rap has chuck d, pac, and Mos Def, and such but those artists are few and far between. most of the subject matter in hip hop is the glorification of drugs, violence, and selfishness. the majority of hits and classics that come from rap contain negativity. Alot of songs in other genres promote the same stuff too but no other genre celebrates it as much as hip hop.


now i can put out the same rock artists and name the meaning behind some of their most famous songs and you'd be amazed at the subject matter, it's just as hard as NWA but check the message:


master of puppets-Metallica; an anti drug song
War Pigs-Black Sabbath; Hypocracy of the Government,protest against vietnam
Hells Bells- ACDC; song about Alcaholism


in my opinon you can still be HARD without being deconstructive

Dr. Dre is still making the same music, but Steven Spielberg is still making the same movies, while Stephen King is still writing the same books...Frankly, I don't see a difference...It's all entertainment.

what i'm saying is, i'm sure everyone who agreed actually meant they're sick of the bullshit and want something with substance, point blank.

the bit i made bold.....the fact is does everyone find the same things acceptable?...i dunno about yall but i was raised to be like "fuck the police" an this is before i even was a rap fan....thats jus what its like round here....so when i hear a rapper sayin that im gunna relate cus it fits my mentality....


jus my 2cents...

NobodyButMe:
yeah it's negative....

but i went through a stage similar to that a while ago, and i sold a bunch of my cds. the past few years have been spent trying to find those cds again. for me, hip hop is like a nostalgia. i couldn't stop listening to it even if (and when) i tried. it's a part of my growing up and learning experience. and even if i decide not to listen to any new rap anymore, i'm always gonna think that the stuff that i've always liked is dope, cuz it's a part of me.

it's good to realize that rap is negative, cuz it broadens your horizons to other forms of music....but back to your point, i think we've all felt that one time or another

Doggystylin:
I'm glad most of you realize what I'm talking about and see it the same way.

and to those who are arguing against me, let me tell you, all of you have that weak, oh rap is negative? well so are movies? so what? its still negative, its not going be positive just cause movie are bad too.

and if its pussy shit to not want to listen to music that praises all sorts of sin and destruction which what satan bassicly praises, then yeah im with that pussy shit. I might find it entertaining myself, yeah, but you know what the difference between a negative movie and a negative song is? you listen to songs constantly, and way more than you watch a movie, and that negative energy is constantly getting to you and YOU DONT EVEN KNOW IT!
