    More importantly why is it necessary for people to provide a commentary on things they don't understand?

    "horrid 'music' in rap"? Ok chief, if you like :rolleyes:

    Nah, there's just nothing worse than people who dislike rap music playing the "it's not music" card. The pusillanimity (that's right ;) ) of dropping the "it's just dumbasses talking over drums" opinion into discussions highlights an ignorance far exceeding anything the likes of Soulja Boy could ever hope to achieve.

    Aside from the horrid "music" in rap, I can't stand to listen to anything in which the performer feels it necessary to remind the listener in basically every song who they are listening to...I can almost hear eddie now...

    "It's PEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEERRRRL JAM, bitches!"

    Really, why is it necessary to insert the artist's name into damn near every song? I don't understand, and, frankly, I don't care to. That was a rhetorical

    why did u even come into this thread?
