Good ol' Nirvana! hehe.. I personally can't stand rap at all. I think it perpetuates a negative vibe and image, not to say that negative music isn't good- I like the dark depressing rock... but it isn't music as we have already established.... Now I know that this is going to make major waves, but we actually touched on this at my lunch table today in this very odd, long and involved conversation... Some of us came to generalized conclusion(I'm saying generalized so i don't step on too many toes, i know there are exceptions..)
When a white person makes fun of/ discriminates against/ bad mouths a black person, it's racism... when a black person does the same to a white, it's rap.
We all know that half - or more, of the things major rap artists say are completely out of line. And we realized at lunch today(this part wasnt even close to the original debate) that a lot of rap makes racist comments to whites, after all, contrary to popular belief, racism works both ways. I have a big beef (funny term considering I dont eat red meat) with discrimination and all that. I hate how everyone uses their differences to cause problems, like in the Middle East. I don't understand how people can't say, k, this is what I'm about, this is what you're about, and there is no reason why we have to agree.
Ok.. wow, that's a lot of typing... umm.. I'm done for now...
