[QUOTE=illmitch;18340439]saying that the majority of rap is shallow is just completely ridiculous

you really shouldn't make judgments about genres you don't listen to[/QUOTE]

implying i haven't heard rap before
implying i don't see your [I]ironic[/I] rap lyrics every day
implying you don't post them ironically because they're stupid

shit my intelligent might be dumb as fuck to other people

Deltron is intelligent.

i don't get where people (that is, blockhead and adb) get this "me posting ironic rap lyrics" thing from

i very rarely post lyrics, only when i'm bored and listening to a song and nothing's happening

[QUOTE=illmitch;18340442]define intelligence

the latin poet catullus wrote invective poems maligning his ex-lover lesbia

is he shallow and stupid[/QUOTE]

Intelligence is an umbrella term describing a property of the mind including related abilities, such as the capacities for abstract thought, understanding, communication, reasoning, learning, learning from past experiences, planning, and problem solving.

hey blockhead

this song isn't about politics so it must be shallow

[QUOTE=Luc214;18340443]uhhh

LOL COPY PAST FROM WIKIPEDIA

[QUOTE=blockhead_;18340453]something can be well written musically and also stupid lyrically hurr durr[/QUOTE]

when I say well written referring to RAP i mean lyrically, because that's one of the most important things in the genre you idiot

this argument will never be won

yeah i'm just quitting this argument, blockhead is being obtuse

gonna look through my posts to see how much i allegedly post "ironic rap lyrics"

[QUOTE=Luc214;18340456]LOL COPY PAST FROM WIKIPEDIA

yes, i used a commonly accepted definition of intelligence.

you didn't clarify and i didn't assume you just meant lyrically, you idiot

hey guys lets worship satan k? everything will be okay then

i promise

i think when blockhead has to quote from wikipedia our point is proven

what is wrong with using a commonly accepted definition?

blockhead did you take argument lessons from adb

EDIT: nvm just saw the above post

blockhead, rap is centered around its lyrics. that's where the word "rap" comes from. any definition of "well-written" regarding rap is going to include its lyrics. this is why you shouldn't start arguments about a type of music that you don't listen to.

[QUOTE=blockhead_;18340461]

what the fuck else would well written refer to when we're talking about hip hop which is based around lyrics?

[QUOTE=Luc214;18340467]what the fuck else would well written refer to when we're talking about hip hop which is based around lyrics?[/QUOTE]

"beats", "flow"

last lyrics i posted in the community thread were dead kennedys lyrics

before that it was n sync

implying i don't like any rap

....blockhead, flow can't be written

lol @ arguing about rap

mitch isnt the only person to post lyrics anyways

my point is: the majority of mainstream rap music is shallow. ludacris, soulja boy, 50 cent etc.

you are the one that brought punk music into the argument, i only talked about the dead kennedys.

[QUOTE=illmitch;18340475]....blockhead, flow can't be written[/QUOTE]
oh god looooooool he really did make that a point

[QUOTE=blockhead_;18340470]"beats", "flow"[/QUOTE]

flow is like singing style. You can't say a song is well written or not based around how the singer sings

beats are generally the same throughout the song, there isn't a musical progression in the same way regular guitar and drums based music progresses.

We would say good PRODUCTION in any case if we were talking about beats

Music is like candy...throw away the rappers.

idk what the discussion is, but the fact is that the majority of mainstream music period is shallow. you can't have Bal-Sagoth's lyrics and expect to be a pop band, LOL.

really don't care about this nitpicking. i didn't want to assume you just meant lyrics. look at above point.

so first it was the majority of rap and now it's the majority of mainstream rap huh

and actually i brought up your favorite type of music when you insulted music i listen to.

[quote]it has more lyrical substance than these songs about bitches, money and material possessions. it's shallow musically and lyrically[/quote]

you're arguing that lyrical substance is based off of what the songs are written about, which is completely ludicrous and ignoring poetic devices, etc

arguin about wmusic wiht blockhed

[QUOTE=thespacekitty;18340493]arguin about wmusic wiht blockhed[/QUOTE]

no they're not arguing about music, they're arguing about rap/hip hop.

which is music........

how are you seriously arguing that lyrics about fucking bitches and buying fancy clothes isn't shallow? what does shallow mean to you mitch? that sounds like the definition of shallow to me

blockhead

soemtimes music makes you feel good

it can make you feel excited about life mainstream motherfucking rap does that a lot dont even try to deny that, it's[I] music.[/I]

dont even argue its content or shallowness music makes people feel a certain way its not about words or semantics or logic
