Rap/Hip Hop is club music. It makes the girls shake there booties. Im not a hip hop fan, but it has it's place, and there aren't very many artists that have the skillset that T9 has.

Obviously. I love hip hop. To say it's club music just for girls to shake there booties to really describes the problem with rap today. People actually believe this because it's all you are allowed to hear for free. Check out KRS ONE, Q-Tip, Methodman, Immortal Technique, Common, Brother Ali, Atmosphere or so many more actual artists and then come back and read how ridiculous your statement looks.

KRS One sucks. q-tip, meh. Methodman, and especially Immortal are good.

Why is my statement ridiculous? Its true. Hip/Hop is good for making the girls dance. Most songs by Method, Immortal and T9 are rap with some hip/hop influence.

Tech 9 may not write lyrics that are as "dark" as immortals, but he flows much better and changes up his style much more frequently then the artists you mentioned. I don't listen to rap for life changing lyrics. Most of them have nothing to say that hasn't already been said. It's hard to find relative lyrics in Rap or Hip/Hop, which is why i think the genre is mainly for booty shaking.

If i wanted to listen to artists that have something fresh and relevant to say, I'll listen to Tool or Marilyn Manson

P.S, i don't listen to Radio Hip/Hop.

First off, KRS ONE DOES NOT SUCK. Q tip sucks outside of Tribe Called Quest (yes I said it).

Now, as far as mainly being for booty shaking, you are as far off base as the damn "purists". There's plenty of great hip hop out there and just because you can't find/appreciate/understand good lyrical content doesn't mean the genre is mainly for booty shaking (although a good portion is).

BTW aren't you the huge Three Six Mafia fan that thinks they are classic hip hop?

God, you "hip hop purists" annoy the shit out of me. It's all hip hop whether it's good or not is a different story (and varies widely by taste). Personally I love Tech N9ne as an artist and MC. He's not my favorite artist and has made a lot of bs songs but he's still a quality artist. His deliveries are top shelf. Now his lyrical content isn't always up to par but he's still a great artist.

For example, i can't stand Atmosphere. He's part of that whiny ass Minnesota back pack scene that claims to know what what "real" hip hop is. Eventhough I can't stand him I wouldn't say he doesn't make hip hop music.

Negative, the liking of Atmosphere deducts 150 cool points thus you fall just shy of me so I win.
