no offense to anyone but personally that stuff is trash. whiny boys too in touch with their feminine side doesnt really appeal to me. just wondering cuz i hate seeing it on mtv, who else even listens to that garbage?

but, who cares if a rapper dies other than the listeners? i mean, obviously its very sad and whatnot, but beyond that, it makes no impact on anyone who wasnt a fan.



hmmm.... tupac and biggies deaths were 2 of the biggest stories in the 90's, and i GUARANTEE if eminem, ll cool j, nas, or jay-z died in the near future it would be headline news for weeks. Somehow I don't think that the same could be said if a singer in one of the lame bands posted died too. Don't get butthurt cuz no one likes emo, its just the way it is. Besides, if everyone liked emo then u guys couldnt say that youre different.

Rappers' deaths getting attention is not an arguement against other genres' polularity or influence. Sure, rap listeners care when they died. The rest of probably found it sad, but didn't really dwell on it too much beyond that because it isn't our concern. However, you cannot honestly say that if a member of an emo band or any other sort of rock died, they wouldn't get attention, because they would. Kurt Cobain, for example, killed himself and people still feel the need to talk and theorize about that (lots of people from that era died, actually, and while I don't care enough to remember who, people who liked them did enough that I know it occured). Even if you think back so far as Elvis, he wasn't a rapper and yet people still joke about him not being dead. Doesn't that sort of parallel Tupac and whoever? Your arguement doesn't work. People who liked the band will care, and the rest of us who don't will care less but still be aware from the news stories. Rap is not so superior to other forms of music that they will matter so much more and get so much more attention. You just don't like the other stuff, and thus don't personally consider it as significant.
