You're a DJ and you classify those 2 songs as hiphop?.....
There are Hip Hop songs that have cool lyrics. No one by Alicia Keys or With You by Chris Brown.
But of course most songs are crappy.
So Sharp what is your genre of choice?

Sure some people may qualify them as R&B or Soul. But generally its considered Hip Hop! No need to cry my friend, some people just know more than others...

...Please Sharp, I wasn't baiting you into an argument. I was voicing how your statement in an open forum was interpreted by me. Now if you're retracting the "Since when have we started to consider Hip Hop Artist as musicians ?" statement then that is fine. But as a hiphop artist (and a fan), yes I took offense. I "give a toss" when you belittle a culture. But like you, I'm done with it. You have far too many posts under your belt to not know better. It would have been derelict of me to say nothing though.Sharp wrote:Hi tonecre8 .
I can't believe you took this personal. Seriously man, relax. Do you honestly give a toss what I think about Hip Hop ?. If so, I'll take that as a complement
The comment I made was very vague at best and directed at the Black Eyed Peas. If you don't believe me, then that's just too bad because I'm not going to be dragged into an argument over this. You have a better chance of fighting with a dead man than getting me going.
Over and out
Regards.
Sharp.

But generally its considered Hip Hop!" No (almost) everyone knows they are R&B, or soul, or neo soul and (in Alicia's case) even jazz. Check her numerous Grammy awards. Don't enter into a debate about that which you obviously know very little about. Even if you've been living under a rock, no one considers them rappers......
....
Um dude what else would you consider those songs to be? Country? Bluegrass? Oldies?

if you can't play a jordan rudess solo (2 billions of notes in 1 second) you can't consider yourself a real musician. 
in these case Megadeth are playing Techno...tonecre8 wrote:(in Alicia's case) even jazz
Sharp, I'm with you on this one. Most rappers are immitators I mean most of the ones I've seen and met. I own a studio and have recorded at least 500 different rappers including some celebrities. They fix theirselves up to sound like the current hot rappers, consequently they change who they immitate every three to four years. I am a rapper but I make all of my instrumental music (or the cheesy rap word beats) by hand no sampling. I won a national title in music composition with a jazz piano riff that I took from one of my "beats" that I made from scratch. And another thing, they have a habit of rapping about things they don't and never had. Things they don't and never have done. In terms of hip-hop dj's are artists, Artists are Artists, very few MC's are artists, and even fewer "beat" makers are MUSICIANS!Sharp wrote:I think crap lyrics like this support my argument nicely.tonecre8 wrote:Wow, that statement speaks volumes about you Sharp! But then I guess there are some that feel keyboards are not musical instruments either.Sharp wrote:Black Eyed Peas....err..... Since when have we started to consider Hip Hop Artist as musicians ?.
