Hip Hop Vs Good Music?

Question

I just recently watched the B.E.T. series (at least part of it, if anyone knows when it will re-air please let me know) and I was shocked to see that Nelly & T.I. were allowed to avoid in my opinion the most important questions like with the negative images they portray in their music and videos do they feel responsible to change these things because it affects the youg listeners? I watched Nelly dance around the issue by talking about adult material (although he knows that children are listening too) and that the women in his videos consented to their/his actions, while T.I. ranted on about he's talking about negativity because he's tricking his listeners into learning something (what??) he also went on to say that Kanye West appealed to only college kids with the College Dropout cd which is straight bullsh*t!! I read someone's question that said they were impressed by Nelly on that show I don't understand how? What do you think

Answer 1

I Wondered Who Is The idiot Who Chose TI & Nelly To Represent Hip Hop Did They Forget To Call

Talib kweli Or Nas , common krs one Or Jay Would Have Been Mc's Represented Hip Hop Wat Better

And That That Goes To Show What An Ignorant Stupid As* Hole TI Is The Stuff He Say's is kinda Funny But overall he Just Makes An As* Of His self

"Kanye appealed to only college kids with the College Dropout cd"

And he Said Some Dumb **** About Nas needs To "Stick To Egyptian History Rap "

I'm Gonna Keep This Short

College Dropout> Any TI Album

illmatic> Ti's Hole Carer

o yea Nelly Isn't Even Relevant For A Fake As* Stupid pop-Rapper To Diss A Hip Hop Legend like KRS-One

Nelly & TI's Hip Hop Pass have Already Been Revoked

Answer 3

I personnally don't like hip hop, I'm 41 is not the same anymore, I use to like Kool n' the gang, and all the guys back in the 70's and 80's, I really don't care for the ones out there nowdays.

Answer 4

I personally do not like hip-hop. I am 16. I was not impressed by Nelly or T.I. I do not know why they were impressed.

Answer 5

There is good hip-hop music, but it is nothing you will hear or see on B.E.T. Good hip hop is overshadowed by these money making, brainwashing, mainstream fools that dominate our t.v and radio. It's a shame that most people answering this ? won't even have heard real hip-hop music.

Answer 6

rap=crap. plain and simple.
