Hip hop easy.

Alternative rock sucks. Classic rock is better. Hell, even hair metal is better.

U into the Rave scene?

i was joking. BUT i have been to raves back in the early and mid 2000s. my last one was in 2005. i think i saw you post before that your from the IE area right? i used to hit up the raves in that area. san bernardino every friday night.

then there's the big events like the halloween raves and the new years eve raves that used to be held in LA. these are the best ones!

What about Drizzy Drake?

Look, the new me is really still the real me
I swear you gotta feel me before they try and kill me
They gotta make some choices they runnin' out of options
'Cause I've been goin' off and they don't know when it's stoppin'

"How they got money to go war with whoever wrecked a building?
And nothing for Africa's HIV-infected children?
That mean the money for a life they can save
They rather use it to send a life to a grave
And that's not righteous ways
That ain't even the half. My real-a-real, I could write for days
But I don't know how they might behave...…."

this is probably the first fcuking time I've agreed with Oscar the grouch over here and not because he's a grouch but because he lives in a garbage can

LOL....That was pretty funny.

Yup, Im from CrownTown.

I know a lot of people that would frequent Raves in the I.E., never my thing though. I could only imagine a Halloween rave though, half dressed chicks on E lol

Alternative easily.

I like some hip hop, mostly 90s. Modern hip hop sucks balls, but modern rock is almost as bad. In the last 10-15 years, mainstream rock music has been so shtty that people started listening to lame ass music like country and EDM.

But I'm a rocker, so I'm biased. Alternative is okay, but metal is the greatest music ever, besides classical.

I love classic rock and blues as well.

yeah, raves is nothing like how they portray it on tv shows. i remember when i was a kid watching tv shows like "save by the bell" and when they would have episodes where they showed what a rave is, i used to think that's gay ass hell lol.

but when you actually attend these rave events, there's hot ass girls there that are pretty much naked, there's gangsters everywhere lol, etc. you get hit up every 5-10 minutes from random strangers asking if you wanna buy some "x" or if you're selling any.

I get on with a lot of different genres. I've been on a classic jazz kick lately...Miles Davis, Coltrane, Stan Getz, Buddy Rich, etc. I also like classic rock and metal, R&B from the 60s and 70s like Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Motown etc., Salsa and Merengue, and some blues and older country. I liked some of the hip-hop of the 80s and 90s when it was popular.

Today's music is suburban rappers who grew up more privileged than me, yet claim to be from the hood. It's whiney chick music, it's passive-aggressive songs written to attach exes, other rappers, and other celebs. It's all self-indulgent, auto-tune shyt. No soul, no message, no depth.

[Illmatic94]

this is the greatest lyrical display ever. its a total mindbending experience. you will not grasp the message on first listen.
