I don't get "rap".
Maybe it's because anyone that can talk, can rap......unlike singing, which takes real talent.
Plus, the vast majority of rap is negative. Killing, drugs, rape, "bitches and ho's" and such.
I don't find that entertaining at all. It glorifies the whole "gangsta" lifestyle. I see so many kids dressed like that, that act like that, with no respect and manners. Is that really what we want kids to look up too? Sadly, many of them don't have a man (or woman) in their lives TOO look up to.

There's a lot of positive rap out there Cheesey you just need to know where to look. And also, rapping is not that easy. Singing is pretty different from rapping in that singing involves musical notes and melodies, etc., Rap is all about flow and lyricism. I've done my fair share of rapping and it's hardly good . I'm better as producer, working in the studio. My lyrics tend to get vague or too philosophical. Check out Parallels or Illustrations of Nothing .

I'm into more jazzy hip-hop now instead of just rap because of the whole "ghetto thug" fetish most rappers seems to have. Think of Nujabes (RIP Jun Seba).

Here's a good one by Headnodic (producer from Crown City Rockers) feat The Procussions

Or possibly the Globetroddas

Lots of good stuff out there if you know where to look :)

Sorry to get this topic so off track. About Eminem--I never really liked the songs on his CD's where he beats his wife but that's a part of his appeal; he takes subject matter that no one dares mention and makes it the focal point of his lyrics. Him and Dre have been great together for years and I own 4 Eminem albums, love them all. I don't necessarily agree with him all the time but his got great flow and amazing beats.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites
Zero2Cool (9h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL
Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.
Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.
beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?
beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked
Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?
beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league
packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why
Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.
beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."
Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme
Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2
