Luiz 4,253 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Welcome to the Hip Hop thread! What got you interested in Hip Hop initially? What are your opinions on Hip Hop culture? Who is your favorite Hip Hop artist? Feel free to post music! They say music can alter moods and talk to you But can it load a gun up for you and cock it too? Well if it can then the next time you assault a dude Just tell the judge it was my fault and I'll get sued See what these kids do is hear about us totin' pistols And they want to get one 'cos they think the shit's cool Not knowin' we're really just protectin' ourselves We're entertainers of course this shit's affectin' our sales You ignoramus but music is reflection of self We just explain it and then we get our checks in the mail It's fucked up ain't it how we can come from practically nothin' To bein' able to have any fuckin' thing that we wanted It's why we sing for these kids that don't have a thing Except for a dream and a fuckin' rap magazine Who post pin-up pictures on their walls all day long Idolize their favorite rappers and know all they songs Or for anyone who's ever been through shit in they lives So they sit and they cry at night wishin' they'd die Till they throw on a rap record and they sit and they vibe We're nothin' to you but we're the fuckin' shit in their eyes That's why we seize the moment and try to freeze it and own it Squeeze it and hold it 'cos we consider these minutes golden And maybe they'll admit it when we're gone Just let our spirits live on through out lyrics that you hear in our songs - Eminem I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

Melech 9,900 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I love Nicki, Iggy, and Brooke Candy. I also like Kanye West and Jay-Z. I also love Azealias music (just not her) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staryu 6,162 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Azealia Banks is the artist that made me love rap music and she is my favorite artist #2 (#1 is Gaga ). I also listen to Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Cakes Da Killa and Zebra Katz a lot. I think that I'm gonna give Tyler, The Creator a chance soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Angel 128 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 My dad forced Run DMC, Public Enemy, Tribe Called Quest and N.W.A. down my throat when I was a kid. So there's that. My mom was more into Reggae and R&B, plus we would always blast Rap/R&B in our house every Sunday afternoon. It brings back so many memories. Also, Jay Z was one of my favorites when I was a kid. Then I got into Dipset, Crime Mob, and all of those other groups from the mid-2000s... that was when Cam'Ron made everybody want to wear Pink and have those furry pink flip-phones and pink Lexus coupes. Such a time to be alive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEVDALIZA 1,274 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Some years ago I was clueless about hip-hop. Then Super Bass happened. It got me interested in Nicki, so I checked her album out, and eventually her mixtapes. That's when I kind of fell in love with hip-hop. My favorites would be Nicki, Azealia Banks and Kanye West Then I also listen to Kendrick Lamar, Tyler The Creator, Brooke Candy, Childish Gambino, J. Cole, among others occasionally operating from another world Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luiz 4,253 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 the first hip hop song i remember falling in love with was Mr. Wendal by Arresed Development. i swear i forced my dad to play that song every time we went for a ride in the car. weird maybe that song is the reason its so damn hard for me to say no to homeless people who ask for money even though my parents tell me its a dumb thing to do I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

Blue Jeans 3,815 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 When I was down the only thing that would give me strenght was Hip-Hop , my uncles and cousins always played Hip-Hop music around my house when i was a kid so i was and still am very in touch with Hip-Hop.. it inspires me becasuse its very honest (Well good Hip-Hop) My fave is Kanye West, he's an amazing artist overrall from his lyrics to his productions to his music videos and tour, his personnality doesn't bother me... My Beautiful Dark And Twisted Fantasy is One of the best albums of all time. Destiny is for losers. It’s just a stupid excuse to wait for things to happen instead of making them happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambrosia 3,775 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I guess I'll go a little old school. I don't know if this is technically rap or if it's hip-hop. Either way, I like it.
