I would hate to give the impression I hate rap because it is “performed” predominantly by black guys ( eminem is a mixed up sort of arse - white but
thinks it cool to behave and dress like a black rapper) , well actually I suppose
that is why I hate it. But the reason is that black music has a great history from
jazz, blues to soul and r and b - I grew up on that - but rap is a sell out. I still
maintain it is a refuge for those of no talent (think Otis Redding v Snoopdog )
it is subversive, formulaic, repetitive and just shite.
It has no place in modern culture and its proponents should be exposed for
the charlatans they are.

that’s a bit generalistic, Clive - whether you like the style or not, some of it is clever and articulate and also, not all rappers are black - Eminem being the obvious one.
there are egotistical arrogant morons everywhere, no matter what field and Kanye West is a prize example of a complete a*se who believes his own hype.
I really hope the Obama comment did have an effect on him because he, more than many, deserves to be taken down several pegs for what he did to poor Taylor Swift, who will forever more be known as just that….. and all because of an arrogant fool who thinks he is answerable to no-one….

Would that it were true.
Am I the only person who loathes these black talentless finger pointing morons
and their inane chants. I presume this arsehole is one of them.
How I long for the kids to see the Emperor has no clothes and react to this
crap by rejecting it, pointing out what a lot of shite it is .
Down with rap, hip-hop or whatever label these wankers give it
