Title: This makes me sad....
Post by: ScaryTooth on Monday, December 21, 2009, 09:49:17 AM

While looking for new music to listen to, this popped into my head for some reason.

Rap used to be so GOOD. Case in point...

Biz Markie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6a-AHLRoAw)

It's straight trash now. It needs to go back to this...

Haha, Biz Markie... back in the day.  That song was cool.  Rap used to be alright, man.  Shit sucks now.

Too Short (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxO39ry7fzs) had his moments (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAXvjTwBf9Q), Tribe Called Quest (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_-4GFV7uTE) had the fuckin' beats, Pharcyde (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=co3qMdkucM0) had the mama (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImhN6-9KLTY).  And uh... weddings (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3RS_agsrPc). Mixalot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_F76ySzk48) was a fucking dork, but some of his stuff was great.  Hell, I'll even take some Ice Cube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJR62vsAg-0).  Because shotgun bullets are bad fo yo health.

Good AND new. I haven't given up on rap. You just have to be diligent.
