ok....i'll chime in..
i used to think the same as elaine when it came to hip hop and rap, no talent/stealing music/promoting violence
Then i got into the music scene and dealt first hand with what all it takes to "get in"
Even though some of the rap artists, USE other music..I'ts still theirs. They have to ask, then pay for the "clip" or "loop" and then edit it into their track. And if the loop isnt costly enough, editing and producing is VERY expensive.....
It may sound far fetched but inorder for a track to make it.....there is an average of a month just to put it together, another month to edit it, and roughly 2-3G's in studio time that has to be paid.
Even though i do my own eiting and mixing....i will never get that "clean" sound because i dont own a studio...
IMHO.....anytime someone can put something together in this case music, they are an artist....and THERE is talent in doing that

:yeahthat: Although there are only a few rap atrists I can appreciate, I am a hard core country and rock and roll kind of gal. I do happen to like Nelly , Outkast, Kelis, and a bit of ol' school stuff too. I hate the life that rap has evolved in to, I lived in the ghetto, had all black friends, all it ever got me was arrested and beat up. Those are people who have no idea what respect is, "Hey man, you stepped on my shoes, now I am gonna kill your ass and do a drive by on your kids." I do value a good song , no matter the genre. I am turned off by the violence it endorses and the fact that most of these people think that the BLING BLING is the only things that matters. It gives you no real respect, and packing heat makes people fear you , not respect you.
Those folks who live that life have totally warped values and their heads up their asses. Even today I see 18 year old kids, playing hard, and acting like they are black.....It makes me sick!! Becuse they think its cool. WHATEVER!!!


If you're gonna tote a gun , at least use to to kill something you can eat!!
