RAP MUSIC [let the ignorance stop. discover. learn.], don't click if your too lazy to read the whole thing Options

[NoSex]

Radio rap f**king sucks and so do your labels
Hijacking your lexus, we turnin' the tables
the music on your radio and your tv
is built and sustained by white suburban bourgeoisie
shit man, when was the last time you watched BET
and these poor black kids got no way out
a few socio-economic classes away from boy scouts
and this shit they put on the air-waves
it's designed to keep white America supplied with slaves
cause this music was made to keep you down
poor, uneducated, sick, and out of white towns
radio rap made bitches, forties, and rims cool
like radio rock made suburban kids think being sad ruled
led to believe that this is the life
calculated, malicious, and constructed strife
poor black america has got another chance
just turn your heads away from ghetto romance
cause mainstream rap is a contagious poison
like scareface printed on a shirt holding a big f**king gun

The bling-bling era was cute but it's about to be done
I leave ya full of clips like the moon blocking the sun
my metaphors are dirty like herpes but harder to catch
like an escape tunnel in prison I started from scratch
and now these parasites wanna prosenna my asscap
trying to control perspective like an acid flashback
but here's a quotable for every single record exec
get your f**king hands out my pocket n***a like Malcolm X
but this ain't a movie, I'm not a fan or a groupie
and I'm not that type of cat, you can afford to miss if you shoot me
curse to heavens and laugh when the sky electrocutes me
Immortal Technique stuck in your thoughts darkening dreams
no ones as good as good as me, they just got better marketing schemes
I leave ya to your own destruction like sparking a fiend
cuz you got jealousy in ya voice like star scream
and that's the primary reason that I hate ya f****ts
I've been nice since niggaz got killed over 8-ball jackets
and Reebok Pumps that didn't do shit for the sneaker
I'm a heatseaker with features that'll reach through the speaker
and murder counter revolutionaries personally
break a thermometer and force feed his kids mercury
ANR's tribe jerking me thinking they call shots
offered me a deal and a blanket full of small pocks
your all getting shot, you little f**king treacherous bitches
[Hook]
This is the business, and ya'll ain't getting nothing for free
and if you devils play broke, then I'm taking your company
you can call it reparations or restitution
lock and load n***a, industrial revolution

[Verse 2]
I want fifty three million dollars for my collar stand
like the Bush administration gave to the Taliban
and f**k packing grams n***a, learn to speak and behave
you wanna spend twenty years as a government slave
two million people in prison keep the government paid
stuck in a six block eight cell alive in the grave
i was made by revolution to speak to the masses
deep in the club toast the truth, reach for the classes
I burn an orphanage just to bring heat to you bastards
innocent deep in a casket, Columbian fashion
intoxicated of the flow like thugs passion
you motherf**kers will never get me to stop blastin'
your better off asking Ariel Sharon for compassion
your better off banging for twenty points for a label
your better off battling cancer under telephone cables
Technique chemically unstable, set to explode
foretold by the dead sea scrolls written in codes
so if your message ain't shit, f**k the records you sold
cuz if you go platinum, it's got nothing to do with luck
it just means that a million people are stupid as f**k
stuck in the underground in general and rose to the limit
without distribution managers, a deal, or a gimmick
Revolutionary Volume 2, murder the critics
and leave your f**king body rotten for the roaches and crickets

I guess I shouldn't have clicked, I really don't feel like reading right now.

Are we talking about rap or hip hop?

[brooklyneast05]

Are we talking about rap or hip hop?

i think we're more talking about those that don't realize/acknowledge a difference

[*yrrnotelekktric*]

honestly people, its not like our opinion matters.

[brooklyneast05]

it's not like our opinion not mattering matters

[Simba]

Looks like it.


By the way, +1 on Nujabes and the MCs he's worked with. Speaking of MCs he's worked with, Cise Star from Cyne and the rest of the group are worth listening to.

I'm pretty sure our opinion matters.

[JerzDevil]

Why?

Why do we have to hear Soulja Boy, Snap/Hyphy, Commercialized Shit on the radio everyday? I admit I do like some commercial rap, but I wanna hear radio stations play flashback joints or actually good, meaningful rap music that people can respect. I'm sick of hearing people say, "rap is crap" ... in reality, it's really not. Cmon, hot97/power 105 play more talib kweli, common, mos def! Why not some old school mobb deep or big daddy kane??? WHY????

Why do I have to hear kids in the hallway singing the soulja boy song every f**king day? Why do I have to sit next to kids in the classrooms that listen to soulja boy shit on their ipods 24/7. Why? We need to bring hip hop back. This year or never.

[Simba]

Dead presidents!

Dumb it down.

[YaGurlSukedMe2SL...]

Modal Soul is tight, but I'm a Samurai Champloo freak, so I can't get enough of Arurian Dance.

Mystline still my fav though, but fasho.

Cause it makes money.

I can rap my order at the McDonalds drive-thru. Of course, everyone knows this rap.

[HoodNigga]

CHUUUUCH!

I went to sleep to Nujabes and woke up to Gorilla Zoe.

I really need to listen to Nujabes more, the beats are relaxing and refreshing. Its like that "Take your chick and walk on the beach" type music. I'm currently listening to Lady Brown. I would also like to add: @ people saying hip hop has no instruments. What is to become of the misguided youth?

As far as Gorilla Zoe, while he might not be in anyone's top 100 rappers list, I like his voice (no homo). Sounds like he is hooked up to a respirator on life support.


I know its random but Im just curious as too which genre accounts for the most downloaded songs bootleg?

TURNTABLE BIATCH!!!

Probably hip hop. On a lot of websites where you can download music, the "Most Popular" list almost always consists of mostly hip hop. Plus bootleggin's always been in hip hop.

[Tramatize]

I like rap, as long as it isnt mainstream!
the only mainstream rap i enjoy is D-12 and three6mafia

LOL I can't mess with the turntables, I'm going to leave that to you.


Yeah I was leaning towards hip hop also but I wasn't for sure. But for the most part it seems a lot easier for me to find a rap mp3 than any other genre I've wandered into.
