Tupac was a big rapper from 1995 to 2000? That's funny considering he died in 1996.
what's funny is how you don't realize that tupac and biggie had a much bigger fanbase and influence in 95 to 00 than when they were alive. In fact many called the "war" a cunning trick that made them megagods in the music biz. but i guess you just have to "know" these things, to understand.
And what's wrong with the 80's?
nothing's wrong with the 80's sir. but don't go around saying that 80's rap was the best, cuz it wasn't. it is just like the video-game scene today where everyone is asking where all the great games are at, not realizing there are some ground breaking things going on.
Why should i need to "move on?"
you just said you wanted to know some good rap from this millenium, ummm, did you miss your own point?
Why can't I listen to music that came out before I (or my mother) was born?you can. I'm just saying that you shouldn't say that era of rap was the best if you weren't there to listen to it. Art reflects society, and this is our society. Don't go saying the pioneers of the precursur to rap were the best rappers, because they weren't rappers. I'm sure most people will tell you that while NWA is badass, but in reality they are kinda tame by today's standards, and ice-cube just doesn't seem that gangsta. It's like saying MS-paint is the shit, when it was really only the shit back in the day. And is now more of a slightly embarassing classic memory. now if you had said earth wind and fire, i would have been a little more lenient.
What's the oldest music you listen to, you 25 year old elitist scumbag?and that's where you true elitists shine. making it a competition.
And why are you randomly insulting women? Being a sexist asshole isn't really going to gain you musical taste credibility around here. We like all kinds of music and all kinds of women around these parts. You're the one who hates music and women, dooshbag.
*slow applause*
And of course James Brown influenced hip hop. Elvis did not influence rock. Rock influenced Elvis.
i said that james brown influenced rap as much as elvis influenced rap. btw that's deep man, that's so mind blowingly deep. "rock influenced elvis". i'm gunna make that my new thing.
and why bother asking for recommendations when you say you pretty much like anything with dan the automators hands in it. then look up stuff he's had his hands into. gorillaz, HBMS(which you are already aware of, which was a letdown to say the least)w/e. You would do better to look up stuff kid koala does since he pwns.
also, maybe you just didn't know about it before but there's this interesting music site called pandora where you can enter a song that you like and it will make a playlist for you from a catalog of thousands upon thousands of songs that are simliar in type. it is simple and easy.
