"Hip Hop or something. It was you're idea to call this that lol " I know! but I corrected myself in-thread, so no excuse
Mate.. I'm happier with it being hip hop if I'm honest.
I love watching crew battles and graffiti is my favourite style of art. Caught an artist called Snub41 in Brighton doing his thing. Wish Worcestershire was more like Brighton in more ways than one  | |||

"Nas is still up there for me, Kendrick Lemars' Good Kid mad city is pretty special. Some great British artists at the mo, Skeptas' Konichiwa from a few years ago is great and I love Bugzy Malone. Intelligent lyrics x"
I was thinking that about the lyrics in rap music. People say it's violent etc but it is intelligent and meaningful. The truth of the World is violent and people just don't want to hear the truth... | |||

"After a dance to MC Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Salt n Peppa and Coolio. Cypress Hill were my first love of rap. Dad bought me the tape I'd asked for without any idea what was on it. I was 13 and learning about life in the ghettos. Funkdoobiest and House of Pain albums were bought off the back of Cypress Hill love. Good, but nowhere near. The Fugees were also rapping between some melodic, rhythmic beats and beautiful vocals. Nicked a Fear of a Black Planet and Straight outta Compton out of his CD collection (he was a cock and stole all my porn!). I was a changed man after that. Was looking forward to hearing Public Enemy.. which was angry, but not Gangsta angry. NWA blew me away! Didn't know anything about them. Just the CD. Straight outta Compton is my go to "Anger song" Along with Rage Against the Machines "Killing in the name of". RATM being one of very few groups that fuzed Rock and Rap. Oddly enough RATM helped me understand Public Enemys rage later on in life. Now love them as much as I wish I should have, at the time. Moving on from NWA I start to hear about Ice T, KRS1, Wu Tang Clan, Ice Cube goes solo and rears shit UP! Biggie.. 2pac.. Snoop, Nate Dogg, Warren G. Then came Eminem. His first two albums are insane. Each song a story, funk, clever, deep, dark, rapid, venomous, articulate, funny, real, off his fucking rocker! He renders everyone weaponless in the war on words. 50Cent, Xzibit.. After that, my interest dries up a bit. I've heard and enjoyed rap in Spanish, German and a few other languages. The way a good rapper can work a sentance to fit a beat, or better yet, flow around and within it. Fascinates me and makes me bop my head. The twin tempo's. I don't understand those who claim to have a love of language, literacy or the many various uses of it. Couldn't find something to love in some Rap songs. It's poetry. " Nice... it is poetry. If you just read the lyrics with no music it's a poem. | |||

I'd love to have seen him come back at the guy.. can you imagine.. someone in the crowd fighting back on the spot and winning? He tells a funny story about it, might be online. | |||

He's great live. "Did he? I'll have to rewatch it. I swear he said he came back at him and crowd went nuts. On the art of Rap by Ice T - documentary I mentioned earlier on. Maybe I'm wrong, or he changes his story. I'll let you know tomorrow lol | |||
