Originally posted by JeeWell, I don't mind some of the Beastie Boys stuff, if that is classed as rap. And a few things by Slim Shady too, I suppose.
When I've seen the Beastie boys they were playing guitar/bass/drums + DJ - just to increase your limited knowledge about rap.
Reggae! great and not repetitive at all!
If I were you I would say that when you have heard one reaggae song you heard them all. 😴
But I aint you, so I'll agree and say cool!
yeah, a lot of reggae can be repetitious as well.

Originally posted by JeeThe difference would be that most types of music - in my opinion - are easier on the ear than rap.

I'll be going onto my heavy rock phase shortly.
Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveAint too sure about that.
I don't take offence or even care what the bloke said - it just seems to me a pathetic "comeback" and not even worthy of a reply.
I wrote down 11 lines to reply to you about song writers.
You only reply to the 12th line who was some kind of joke.
Apparently you had nothing to contest on my reply and tried to turn the conversation off topic or just put me down by using that answer.
That was really the last pathetic trick from the book.

The thing with rap is that if you've heard one, you've heard them all.
They all have....chugga chum chugga chum chugga chum manufactured backings to them. And they don't sing yet they call them songs.....
And, here's the funniest bit - they regard themselves as musicians. 😛 Hahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!! 😉
So after admiting that you listen to a music that is repetitive, that all have wa wa pedals, not even mentioning the 3 same chord used in the majority of reggae song, now we go into "my ear are bleeding when I listen to rap".
Interesting.
Originally posted by JeeThe thing is, unlike you rap-merchants who proclaim ram to be the greatest thing since whatever....I listen to loads of types of music. Including a bit of reggae at present.

Anyhow, you could hardly compare the quality of someone like Bob Marley to a rap 'performer' can you?

If you had read the thread you would have known that I listen to all kind of music. On top of that I play guitar, bass, piano and aint too bad with drums. Don't worry about us - rap lover - and our knowledge about music. Be more concern in working on your very closed and prejudicialed mind. And drop the Bob Marley part or you'll make a fool of yourself at any reggae gig.

Like you, I listen to loads of types of music and, apparently, at least one extra type that you decided to dismiss entirely.
Originally posted by PalynkaSorry, but I can't help it if it sounds crap to me. Would you rather I said I thought it was wonderful?

I wasn't talking about the people in this thread specifically - but the ones in 'real life' who proclaim it to be the only music [?] to listen to.
Originally posted by JeeI don't care if you play the kitchen sink - that doesn't make your likes and dislikes in music any more relevant to me does it?

I don't know what you are on about with the Bob Marley snide remarks either.
Originally posted by Dr StrangeloveI would respond to your post properly, but I'm too busy playing with a ball of string right now.

Maybe, on the other hand, you are easily amused.
[Like most rap fans perhaps?]
