Now I don't mean what you think is the greatest album of all time, because I personally think that is Michael Jackson - Thriller, but I don't really listen to that. I mean what is an album you listen to like once a week that you have had for years but you just love. Mine would probably be Stone Temple Pilots - Core, though Rage Against the Machine - Evil Empire is on the same level to me.

I don't care what's trendy...I don't care what other people listen to..or what they think. I listen to what I want to listen to. I listen to rap, rock, metal, pop..and even country...that's the way it should be...because no matter what genre it is, it's all art. And the people that make the music have more talent than me..and probably more talent than anyone that's gonna read this...that's why they have albums...and fans....and record labels....

Racist much? Did it ever occur to you that perhaps "white ppl" listen to rap because they enjoy listening to it?

No Racism, No Threatening, No Victimization or otherwise Hateful posts

Oh well...

It's just sad to see someone make such a blanket statement about an entire race that isn't even true. Yes, I'm white. Yes, I listen to rap. No, I don't do it to fit in. I prefer rap over rock/metal/etc. How is that trying to "fit" in? Around here rock is what's most popular anyway.

But to each his own I suppose

Quick question to the rap lovers.. what's your fav albums?

Personally the ONLY rappers I have the least bit of respect for are Tupac and Nas.. out side of that they all are absolutely horrendous and produce totally meaningless songs just to make money off of stupid people who like to fit in...regardless of race.

Guess I'm in the minority here. If it's well done, then i listen to it and respect it, regardless of which genre it is. I love rock, some rap i love, I breathe jazz. If it's art, it's art.

LuZZo, to your question,

All-time favorite Rap Album: Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back

Creeping up on PE is: The RZA - Bobby Digital

My problem with Rap is my problem with Rock. The best stuff isn't played on the radio. Commercial Rap and Commerial Rock is mass produced feces.

And Rock artists don't produce totally meaningless songs just to make money off of stupid people who like to fit in...reguardless of race?

You obviously missed the point in my former post. It had less to do with race than to do with fitting in. Who's to say people listen to one genre of music over another because they want to fit in? And therefore, if one would listen to rap over rock to fit in, whos to say they wont listen to rock over rap to fit in? Or Punk, or Techno, or Pop?

Maybe you dislike certain types of music, but that doesn't give you the liberty to singlehandedly diss every single person who listens to it by stereotyping them into an unfair and unrealistic stereotype that you think is true but don't bother actually checking out.

I know someone who listens to Punk who is a stupid, whiny, loser. Do I go around saying everyone who listens to Punk is just whiny? or a loser? or stupid? No...I don't. Because it isn't true, and I know it. I don't just automatically make the assumption.

Just because you stick your hand in a bag of candy and pull out a tootsie roll [which you happen to hate] doesn't mean that the next time you stick your hand in that same candy bag you wont come out with a lollipop [that you love]

Make sense? Don't classify the whole bag by one piece of candy.

kbs, i had to read that, and now i have a headache :dead:

not saying that rap is total garbage or anything :ponder: , but we people that hate it have to deal with it everywhere we go. we hear people listening to it on the street, it is all over the radio, and Mtv is all Rap, R&B , and POP. MTv and that little **** Carson and his stupid show TRL, all they do is play pop and rap.

i personaly like Metallica, and now i am really stuck because once i listen to all of their cds i don't know where to go, what other artists to look for, because all they play is crap i don't like.

    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact.

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By WaltC · Posted

      I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
