Re: Turn That Cr*p Off!!!
It's down to the media, lazy journalists call pop rappers hip hop artists to make them appear more credible.
Real hip hop is a very underground thing in 2012, the record labels like to associate their 'artists' with a scene, it happens with lots of pop music.
True hip hop is not very popular at all, it's artists are not very well known & make little money, they do it for the love of the culture.
Because of this, 95% of the music that people are angry about because they hear it hear booming out of cars isn't hip hop, it's just masquerading as such.
Just because something has rapping on it, it doesn't mean that it's hip hop.
Thanks for the open mindedness Darren bud, MF Doom is an amazing lyricist, however, his music is not easy to get into upon your first listen. Stick with him & you will be rewarded !
And just to get back on topic, I also hate hearing music playing out of poorly equipped cars. House music in particular.
(Yeah, i know I said that all kinds of music are good earlier, but we all have to dislike something. I think it helps to put things in perspective.)
