Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Snoop, Tupac, Run DMC, Beastie Boys, L.L. Cool J

strik9 said:Fuck Ya! Not to mention KRS-One, NWA, Wu Tang, Public Enemy, Erick Sermon, Eric B. & Rakim, Tribe Called Quest. Hip hop with intelligent lyrics, and a good rhyme structure, takes talent imo. This is part of a song called Triumph by Wu Tang Clan. Imo these lyrics are pretty good.
"Olympic torch flaming, we burn so sweet
The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat
We crush slow, flaming deluxe slow
For judgement day cometh, conquer, it's war
Allow us to escape, hell glow spinning bomb
Pocket full of shells out the sky, Golden Arms."
"Watch for the wooden soldiers, C-Cypher-Punks couldn't hold us
A thousand men rushing in, not one nigga was sober
Perpendicular to the square, we stand bold like Flare
Escape from your Dragon's Lair, in particular
My beats travel like a vortex, through your spine,
to the top of your cerebrum cortex
Make you feel like you bust a nut from raw sex
Enter through your right ventricle clog up your bloodstream
now terminal, like Grand Central Station
Program fat basslines, on Novation
Getting drunk like a fuck, I'm duckin' five year probation."
Ozzbran said:Yeah I can't stand all the current rap and all of the rich white kids throughout my school that think they are all ghetto and hot shit because they like it. Original rap actually had a meaning, as opposed to todays asinine "Money, Money, girls, girls, car, girls, money, car, sex, car, money, girls" formula for pointless thug crap.

Now THAT'S the way to kill!GregadetH said:Does it count if I run over hookers in Vice City blasting 'Raining Blood'?
GregadetH said:Metal isn't the only worthwhile music out there. After I hit my mid twenties I was able to see that. Do I like new rap? Absolutley not. But anyone who came out in the 80's and early 90's actually put forth effort into their material. It's not just "Yay-a!" and "O-Kaay!"
And what about Ice T? I suppose he's talentless? Ever hear of Body Count?
Even Slayer is down with them. Least we forget Anthrax has several rap songs in their arsenal.
Go to Hottopic and buy a Cradle of Filth shirt. It'll make you feel better.
