sigh............i have been listening to rap music for over 8 years.

I loved(and still love) tupac, nas, BIG, snoop dogg(old not new), and dr dre.

But now the radio has gotten out of control by releasing unoriginal, uninteresting, repetetive, cliched crap, over and over and over again.

And what annoys me is that people are dilusional enough to like it.  No wonder people say rap sucks, because its the same stuff over and over again.

Sure some one will come around and say that underground rap is what really matters, which is really absurd seeing as how underground rap is never on the radio, never even talked about in rolling stones mag(etc), or even talked about in school or other places.

I started realizing this when the rap lyrics had a pattern.

This is how it goes

first it started off by saying 18 inch rims.  Then it progressed to songs saying 20 inch rims, then to 22s, then to 24s...............and now we got 30s.

another pattern

first it starts of with  hennesy, then cristol, then patron.....

i honestly have never heard of these liquors before.......And i bet even hard drinkers have heard of these only after they listen to rap.

another pattern

it always involves being in a bar, drinking, being better than anyone because theyre rich, shorties.

demeaning women is just ridiculous in rap.

another pattern

lots of rappers always have to make references to other rappers, or even themselves.

one thing that annoyed me was a song that was a remix, and the whole song was about how it was the remix to the original(kind of like the remix to ignition...........he just talks about how its a remix, thats so stupid)

but seriously rap is just dying down.  Anyone can rap now................seriously the songs are repetetive and cliche.

Artists usually gloat that theyre song has been the #1 billboard song, or one of the top ten, for about longer than 2 weeks.

Thats kind of sad seeing as how a lot of blues legends(bb king), zz top, eric clapton, and other rock stars have had songs on the "best songs lists" for over 30 years..................

which also gets me to another point on how rap songs get "boring"............ya thats right, when you listen to a rap song more than 10 times.........it becomes boring..............

can you believe that?? how can anyone take that crap??

i demand an artist to make a great song that will last a long time before he is on the radio............

well

rap is dying inside me

and i have taken old rock and old blues

non of that emo, scream metal stuff for me

and it has gotten me to realize that an artist or band needs to make a song all on their own, with out using specialists making their instrumentals or anything.

I guess the only people involved in rap that actually have talent are the synthesizers.
