Are the meanings of the songs lyric content revealed in a mirror?
I guess that predudice towards a non registered poster is fine in your small mind, but predudice against lyrics that make no sense isn't. I'm a musician. Your a dealer. The analogy of me not understanding rap lyrics is like you not understanding Best Buy salesmen. Both cheapen legitimate product, both diminish the credibility of the professionals, and both sell a shitload of poor quality product. Stop kidding yourself about predudice. If your an audio salesman for more than one day, you get the customer in your shop looking for a $299.00, 500 watt 7 speaker home theatre system. Been there....done that. I'm sure you take the time to educate each of them about the sonic virtues of your amp with nested multiple negative feedback loops with the $10K price tag reduces the transient distortion likely to be heard in the Wal-Mart stereo they seen in the Sunday flyer. Rap to me is like Sanyo audio to you. Only thing different is the product. Get off your soap box.
Sordidman only became a ware whore only recently, I am guessing around a year or so...... he is a pretty good guy, do get bent about his comments.....

OK,
Look, - I don't have a right to judge you. You're not breaking any rules by posting here. However, - this forum is not about HipHop or what you call "Rap."
So, - I'll just say, - sorry.
"RAP" does not exist. So, - essentially you're painting with a broad brush here. There's a lot of HipHop music that has great lyrics.
Comments about HipHop music, really, should fall in the Rock section. Most of us do not go into the Classical section, or Music general section, and make comments about how horrible Copland or Schubert is.
But again, - I'm not the Forum police, - so I apologize.
I think that registering is the most important thing that anyone can do here, because it reflects the history of your experiences and who you are. Almost anything that anyone says here, - is centered around the extent of people's experiences.
You are making comments about ART. So, - you have seen a movie that you do not like. It's just your opinion. When you say that all of "Rap" music sucks, - you do two things, you insult the Genre, and you state your opinion as a fact.
Neither are true. For the person who loves HipHop, - their opinion is just as valuable as yours. For we have no universalizable, agreed upon, definition of "good" and "bad" music, music in general, or art in general. Gordon Lightfoot, Madonna, Notorious BIG, The Clash, and Mozart are all identical in the eyes of ann undefinable concept of art and music. Everything else is your own idiosyncratic opinion and definition, - that no one else, (or at least few others share).
Finally, I've been posting here long before I ever became a dealer. I have never made a comment here based on me being a dealer, - nor have I promoted any product that I sell, - I often promote competitors. I've been a lead bass player and songwriter for 15 plus years; if anything, my comments stem from that.
You're entitled to your opinion, but you have to understand that it's unique to you, and carries no more weight than anyone elses.

Sorry, been locked in the recording studio the past couple days. Couldn't respond. I appreciate you allowing me to post, and I take to heart your comments on registering(and I used to be registered), but I think I prefer being un-registered. Bass player, huh? Good on you. Music is the greatest thing. I really posted that to see what kind of explanations of those lyrics I would get. I've been a musician for decades and thought perhaps there was a language to those Rap songs I didn't know.
