Personally, I don't get why you can't keep your given name if you're a rapper. Why must every rapper create a persona and be someone other than themselves? Are there a laws I'm not aware of?

You mean like Johnny Rotten, the Edge, Joe Strummer, Joan Jett, Adam Ant, David Bowie, etc. etc.?

Any chance we can just round it down to the "worst" rappers, regardless of name? Commercial rap & hip-hop mostly sucks these days. My vote for worst names goes to Shaq Fu.

I'm sorry.I just don't get it.Rap music.I've truly,seriously,honestly tried giving rap a good listen.You know,a fair chance (I've tried the same with country music,too.GOD,I HATE that stuff).
One thing is:I hear all the sampled basslines from songs past.I mean,they DO put some creativity in how the vocals(??) flow over the groove of the songs(??).
Why use somebody elses grooves/lines??
It just seems that it would seem A LOT MORE REWARDING,coming up with your own grooves,IMHO.
I mean,my bass lines??That I WROTE?? They're like my kids!!I'm sorry.But I'm just much more partial to makin' my own "kids".

Oh......Bad rapper names??......All of'em??
