From the thread concerning a parent who worked to stop a school from letting their students be the opening act for Ludacris:
"You STFU... You obviously don't know... Not all RAP is GANGSTA RAP...
Ludacris is no GANGSTA...
You want Gangsta? The Game... 50cent... Tupac.... That's GANGSTA...
So stop acting like a lil cumbubble..."
Folks, that there is why I will never truly like rap. Most of the fans who advocate the style and claim that is doesn't promote ignorance and stupidity just end up showing ignorance and stupidity; which makes me question the correlation between such behavior, and the music.
Sorry, but if the artist's attempt at artistic self expression can't be done without the use of vulgarities as every other word in the 'song', then their skill as a musical artist is truly lacking.
Granted, I can see some use of vulgarities, however, when a high percentage of the work contains an overly profuse usage of vulgarities, then well...to put it simply, you suck. You might as well just add some gibberish.
