Rap
KharBevNor:
Don't worry, I understand how difficult it is to explain you're favoured music to someone who doesn't 'get it'. Everyone normally has one or two genres or styles that, when done right, just get something inside them.
a pack of wolves:
I keep meaning to investigate grime more. I keep listening to the tape I have of Jon E Cash's set on the Peel tribute night, but I never know what's good to get in that genre.
Radiowar:
--- Quote from: MilkmanDan ---yeah it's a great album. Produced by Ant as well, so the Atmosphere beats can't be the problem, so clearly you just don't like Slug.

Yeah I know. I like Ant's production (for the most part).
besmircher:
--- Quote from: Cpt.Fantastic ---I can't remember what site I was on, but there was a guy who said that Led Zep sucked and rap ruled, then another person chimed in with this gem:
'Y'all are gay if you don't like Led Zeppelin. All rap is is some black person talking gay.'
A masterpiece. Totally true too.
--- End quote ---
I think the only thing perfect about that is how absolutely the Zep fan matched the idiocy of the post to which he was responding.
Actually, it's probably easier to dismiss Led Zeppelin than the entire genre of rap on the grounds of artistic merit and social influence. I mean, I like them pretty well and all, and they were a very important band, but they weren't THAT monolithic.
besmircher:
Oh, and for those who have been posting about DJ Shadow and RJD2 and whoever else, I'd like to add Prefuse 73, whose concert I missed tonight, thanks to my boss' love of scheduling me on days that I request off.
