Is rap getting TOO popular?
 
back in the old school days there isn't a lot of people who listen to rap, so if you are one of them peeps who listen to rap music, you're the cool guy, everyone who listens to Spice Girls and Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey would be like "whoa!", and now in the new school, EVERYBODY listens to rap! White people, Gay People, Chinese People.......

Rap is considered pop music now along with rock, bubble gum and etc....you see white girls liking fucking tupac.....it's just now right....

No hate to any white, gay, asian rappers aight, I dont mind, but.....

.......rap is turning mainstream

^^^what do you think?

Hell Yea Mayn... But Atleast There's Still Underground Keepin It Real So Thats Still Good..

Ysdat 09-30-04 09:12 PM

the more popular rap get's. the deeper the underground will be. So it's a win win situation. Hip hop is world wide.Hip hop is the prefered choice of music by most youth. Hip hop is here for the 20th century. from 1990 onward hip hop has been climbing the ladder each year. it is now absolutly huge. Hip hop is here to stay.

Slob my fuken knob cunt.. Using rap music to rebel from our parents? Rap music doesnt belong to a race anymore. Just like football doesent, just like TV doesent, just like bars and pubs dont.. If you wanna say that, then go back and live in a tribe in the middle of the african desert and be happy..

You just won the award for stupid comment of the day.. I hope you feel special.

i fell you on that one cuz i grew up in the ghetto and i share thier same backrounds,
if i wanteed to rebel from my parents id be eminem, and i dont like him

Simple Sage 10-01-04 12:16 AM

the way I feel Rap done become a formula..Creativty cannot exist in a formula..so rap become cookie cutter...so in a way yeah it did fuck shit up..but the more rocks and a pail the more gold you'll find so i guess havin new niggas that learn about this shit and get nice can't do nothin but boost the game..so it's a double edged sword i think

50Cal. 10-01-04 01:58 AM

yes i agree too many people who cant rap trying to rap and too much image being sold instead of good lyrics people like carsonjet should not rap oure wackness

OrEo da cookie 10-01-04 02:18 PM

Klassic 10-01-04 02:23 PM

i think its fucked up, like when they hated on black people and now all their kids cherish our music and shit. Its not to popular, ya know, most kids just follow whats cool, i mean u put a new style in and all dem white kids and shit are gonna switch to dat cuz thats cool, the people who remember kickin it to RunDMC and all them old school thugs are still gonna stick, but bring sumthin else that kids think make em cool and most will switch.

huggy_bear 10-02-04 02:49 PM

i love rap, its all i listen to, i dont think rap could ever get too popular, if anyhting i want it to spread to everywhere, and i sort of agree with BLA but not all rappers jsut rap about crunk and shit, thats what its turning into, but there are some rappers that actually talk about shit that reaches to people.....

Kawn Flixx 10-02-04 02:53 PM

yea

but when u start creating your own music and get persnoal wiht ur music
allmusic sorta seems wack or al the mistakes they make become open too you

like with me.
my fav rapper was jay-z now my fvrapper is me lol

if you don't mke rap personal for you nd only spit shit
that has nothin t do with you what-so-ever then you'll
always be a spectator

thats why rap was more real back then
but I like the new school rap much better

sounded like a schoolhouse rock shit back then
too basic
