Shut up.

Misery is a Butterfly - Blonde Redhead

and I've also got a whole bunch of stuff from my friend and been listening to loads of Madvillian (all the violent hip hop I listen to, you know? yeah.. )

[Aneurysm]

I've got some Rehab, subtle, Atmosphere, cLOUDDEAD, Gorillaz, Danger Mouse, another guy named Subtle, MUV. All just brimming with ultra-violence. Okay, so King Gordy is pretty violent. And so is the death rap I happen to enjoy from time to time and that my brother is actively involved in.

Even so, if you want to talk about violence, take a look around, if you happen to live on this planet, you are profiting from or supporting violence in one way or another. So don't complain about it if some fellows would rather spit a bunch of bullshit on a record rather than, you know, Crusade or start a revolution or something.

That wasn't in response to me, yeah? Cos I actually agree with you..

Seriously though, get some Madvillian, it's mad fun.

cheers

[GeraldTheMouse]

I finally got a legit copy of Ded Prez's Let's Get Free.

Syd, have you heard Blackalicious? You would love them.

[Sydney]

yeh dude, I think I listed them in one of my earlier posts..

I've been wanting to make a hip hop thread for ages, but I'm terrified of it getting bombarded with posts about how shit it is, so I've chosen not to thus far.

don't get made at SYDNEY,i'm the one who made the comment
Rap/Hip Hop=Violence...I'll admit i was in an extremely bad mood the day i wrote it...I'm not trying to start an argument,but,the very role models for urban youth in america are out shooting or killing each other (Topuc,Notorious B.I.G and Sean Combs)..

earlier this year in ALLHIPHOP.COM is excerp from article:02/13/06

Bay area rapper Mac Minister was profiled on AMERICA'S MOST WANTED...Police have been seeking Mac Minister in connection with the murders of Kansas City rapper Anthony "Fat Tone" Watkins and his companion Jermaine "Cowboy" Atkins...Police suspect Mac Minister and an accomplice, Jason "Corleone"Mathis,of killing Fat Tone and Cowboy in retaliation for the murder of of Vallejo rapper Andre "Mac Dre"Hcks...

Now i realise these are isolated cases,but,above article was the lead article on web site that day...like they're bragging about it...

Here in urban america crime is down,but,murders with hand guns are up...Virtually every large city will break record for most murders in the year,over 30,000 murders in USA last year...

Now Im not blaming all this mayhem on rap/hip hop music,but,when urban kids see these performers "packin heat" and body guards doing the same,they think it's OK...

Here in Buffalo this past week an 18 year old aspiring rap singer shot point blank 2 cops...the shooter got off 5 rounds,3 connected...the female cop has a bullet lodged on her spine,as of today parylized...the male cop took 2 shots from so close he has powder burns,he was released from hospital over weekend...He blames himself because his partner may never walk again...the shooter just bought gun the day before for protection,these kids have no fear of authority...

There have more murders in Buffalo,NY this month than have been in Australia in last 5 years...
