I do not like the rap music today, it is disrespectful, loud, obnoxious, and really offensive,,,,BUT>...

In the day..there was good jammin, with good ppl, like the Sugar Hill gang..and it was good and funky, you dint have to be crude to be cool..

I like anything with funky bass or guitar licks, as long as the lyrics are cool i'm good with that

when the lead guitar could put the bubbly runs in, when the Bass was thumping to the drums, when the vocals were actually in the form of a song, but most important, when the music was still music.

modern rap is a joke, people do not have anything good to express anymore it is all recycled or it is just fresh and garbage...

I agree. As I have grown personally I prefer my music to have a positive influence on me and "Promiscuous Girl" does not do that for me nor " In the Club", etc....

The first rap song my sister allowed my nephew to actually listen to was The SugarHill Gang (I brought it for him on a CD)..."Now what you hear is not a test, I'ma rappen to the beat...." I still know every word and that was 1978 and I'm 48 now...thanks for the happy trip down memory lane

I love hip-hop back in the day I was probably into 3rd Bass, N2deep, 2 Live Crew and NWA. Today I keep it underground like Immortal Technique, Masta Ace, Papoose, Jedi Mind Tricks, Atomsphere, stuff like that.
