Do you like Rap Music?  If you consider rap "music".
The only ones I like are Public Enemy and the Beastie Boys.
Other than that I hate all of it.

I love old school Beastie Boys. My all time fav rap song is The Humpty Dance by Humpty Hump/Digital Undergound. I love playing the basslines to it. I like a lot of the old school scratchin songs as well. The new stuff, IMHO lacks ANYTHING that interests me. |

Unfortunately, the stuff that gets shoved in everyones face rarely deserves any of the previously mentioned adjectives, and sadly, this is what most people learn to associate with any music with spoken rhymes and hip hop beats.

I think rap "musicians" and "songwriters" are just frustrated artists that rise to the level of their incompetence and stay there.. Able to flourish only within the "gangster community" trappings, performing only 'rap' or 'hip hop'. Ask them to do any other kind of "music" and you'll just get a blank stare or excuses why they would rather not. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Buffalo, NY | | I really enjoy rap. Most of the stuff I listen to and enjoy comes from the early to mid 90's. There's another thread going on right now where people are posting their top 5 hip-hop albums. Lots of good listening suggestions over there if you're into the genre.

not too sure about the classifications, but i dig the roots, mos def, digable, tribe, arrested development.
i really really like missy.
there's a lot of good stuff from other countries too...makiza (chile) comes to mind.
still can't believe it's almost 30 years and people are still arguing about whether rap is music. i wonder how long it took folks to accept rock n' roll....or jazz...or 70's-era miles davis...

It's all about the lyrical content for me. When it's too materialistic (most newer rap) or cuss-laden, that's where I usually tune out.
