Saw them about a month ago; insane live show. Not a huge fan, but I really like the recording with Mike Patton. They were having some technical difficulties with one of the guitars, and then the rest of the band spontaneously started playing some Justin Timberlake song. Surprisingly enough, they suspiciously knew the song all too well, though it proved to be most entertaining not only for them but the audience as well.

The following bands suck btw:

Korn

Where the **** did that come from, shower boy? Wanna take a shower? Touche some skin? Peek at some bottoms? You\'re a retard?

Oh God that made my day. If you actually listen to KoRn, and know anything about the band, you would know they arent even metal. Technically it classifies under Nu Metal. RATM- now that is RapMetal.

Do you have a reading problem? When did I say Korn was metal? I never did. I said they was rap/rock. I said Limp Bizkit was rap/rock. I never once said they was metal, for cryin\' out loud. Read before you post.

And KoRn being influential. Right. They helped create a genre of crap bands. You can call it nu-metal or whatever you want. I call it rap/rock.

And it also amazes me that you call this band influential - yet they have the same damn paretnal advisarys on their cd.

And if it\'s not rap/rock how do you explain the songs where they ....*gasp*..feature a rapper?

Damn!

My list: (Yes, I actually listen to all of them)

Nas - Illmatic (Classic)
Nas - God\'s Son
Tupac - All albums except for the new one (Still good)
50 cent - Get rich or die tryin\' (I was skeptical at first because of the album name, but it actually has many great songs)


Why do these clueless rockers hate on rap everytime and not even give it a chance? Why is it that they hate this type of music so much? I don\'t see any hip-hop fans going around making fun of rock, damn.

Anyway, I can\'t take it when people bad mouth Tupac, he makes great rap songs that are about his life and the people around him. He doesn\'t always rap about bitches and money like most of you seem to believe.

 
Some really good rap songs

Nas - Life we chose
Nas - Rewind
Nas - If I ruled the world
Nas - Nas is like
Nas - One Mic
Nas - Hate me now
Nas - You\'re the man
Nas - Money is a bitch
Nas - Memory Lane
Nas - I Can
Nas - NY state of mind
Nas - Ether (Making fun of Jay-Z but I hate Jay-Z so...)
Nas - Everybody wants to rule the world
Tupac - Dear momma
Tupac - To my unborn
Tupac - Do for Love
Tupac - Are you still down? (Remember me)
Tupac - Changes
Tupac - I ain\'t mad at ya
Tupac - Thugs Mansion Acoustic version (Not really about thugs)
Tupac - Ballad of a dead soldier
Tupac - Brenda\'s got a baby
Tupac - Keep ya head up

There are more but I\'m very picky when it comes to rap.

Yeah, I\'m with you Soul. I can listen to Punk/Rock/Alternative/Rap/R&B equally. I pity those who are so narrow-minded when it comes to music.

Tupac - Changes = My favorite rap song, evar!111

yeah.... alot of the time it seems as if it\'s all become a competition about which music ;

the more tough ( either it be \'loud\', \'tough attitude which goes with it\', foul language, etc... ) = better.

when ppl list so-called \'soft\' music like r&b ballads or certain folk music they\'re insulted of being ghey or some other insult. Why ? :o  Music is about what you just like to hear. That is the only criterium which justifies buying a cd. Otherwise you\'ll be a poser and you\'ll only deceive yourself and hurt your wallet needlessly. I\'m pragmatic at music and i pick individual songs from different genres. Heck I even would list sound bites, videogame sounds and music and certain noises as "music". Ppl need to think \'outside of the box\'.

Korn was good on the first album, life is Peachy was nicely dark. The rest is rubbish IMO

I agree. Untouchables is some bad stuff. Sounds more Powerman-5000\'ish. Some kickass songs though.

And KoRn being influential. Right. They helped create a genre of crap bands.

So you first say they arent influental, noted by your sarcasm. Then say they are influentual by creating "crap bands"?. Damn- I\'d like to see you many any decent music. Even play an instrument? Every band has talent. Some less, some more than others. Rappers dont play any instruments.

And it also amazes me that you call this band influential - yet they have the same damn paretnal advisarys on their cd.

If you were to actually get your ideas straight I could connect and make a decent argument here. But your saying they arent influental, and yet saying they are, and still saying they are crappy influence.

And if it\'s not rap/rock how do you explain the songs where they ....*gasp*..feature a rapper?

*gasp* Many headbangers have rap fans and friends. Ice Cube and all those other rappers were asked. KoRn couldve done fine. Ask any KoRn fan. All In The Family, and Children Of the KoRn, are the worst songs.

Now your just saying that just to piss me off. Download some of these songs Jumpman. And yes Linkin Park- I agree ****ing sucks;

KoRn - Daddy
KoRn - Low Rider (To show they arent just all heavy metal)
KoRn - Thoughtless (About the pain caused by school shootings)
KoRn - Alone I break
KoRn - Blind (One of the best songs by them)
More but Im tired.

Marilyn Manson (By far not my favorite, but totally kickass band) are better than any rap artist you could list. All they do is talk fast while some poor white kid makes a "phat" beat in the background. Yeah- real musical talent. ****- those thugs can come and shoot me, after all they are total badass\'s right?

So because I said Marilyn Manson is better than any rapper you could list. Its into this thing where I totally hate rap. Their are a few old songs I like. Run DMC, Nas, and a few others that I decently like. And even own CD\'s of a few.

Dont get me wrong- Rap is alright, But rock/metal ****ing owns rap.

Bleh, im tired. **** it- havent even gotten into 1/4

In my CD player I currently have nothing.... I hooked up the XM over the week and Damn, I am impressed.  I keep it tuned to the 90\'s and the top 20, and the Alternative stations... and if nothin is on there, I have a plethora of other choices and if I don\'t feel like music, ESPN/FOX?Sporting News, or the Comedy channel where I hear standups 24/7... I have it all and I like it.  I can get any type of music I want to listen to at any point in time, from Rap, to Alternative, to Classical and Jazz, to Latin or World music.  I love it.  I agree with you Vapor, being narrow minded is a boring way of listening to music, I like almost everything, except some country western stuff, but not all of it I hate

Rappers dont play any instruments.

You smoke a lot of crack, don\'t you? That\'s the only way possible for you to come up with such dumbass statements.

First off, let\'s see you write a song where every line and lyric ryhmes in perfect harmony. And as for them not playing instruments - plenty of them do.

You seem to have an un-natrual hatred for rap , which I don\'t understand. Music is music and it\'s all art. You don\'t have to like it - but just because you don\'t like it, doesn\'t mean it is all bad or talentless. And if you\'re goin\' to argue the point, you need to at least get your facts straight, instead of blurting out stuff that is just plain idiotic.

You argue that all rap is about is bitches / money / fame and what not. Yet, you forget that most "nu-metal" and altertinve music is fueled by simple angst. Nothing more. And I\'m sure you\'ll bring up some song , like the one KoRn did about school shootings - well guess what? There is also rap songs with actual meanings and relations to the events happening in the world. You\'re just too damn close minded to actually accept the fact that rap is a respectable genre, just the same as you\'re "nu-metal".

Not so diverse to me. Lots of people that fall into the rock side of things tend to venture around that same area. The only thing that is truely diverse would be The Crystal Method, Run DMC,
Vanilla Ice and Queen. I replied to you once and i guess you didnt read it. If you say Rock "ownz" rap its only a matter of opinion and none of us care to hear such mindless garbage. If thats what you think then thats great but bringing your pride to the table where you could totally be the opposite of somebody else can alwasy cause conflict.

How is this for diverse:
Korn
Brujeria
Tribe called quest
bjork
Poe
Jamiroquai
Chucho Valdes
Slayer
Tupac
Twista
Wutang Clan
Joe Satriani
LTJ Bukem
DJ Freaky Flow
ONA (polish metal)
Chili Peppers
The roots
Mudvayne
MC Solar (french)
Utada Hikaru
Ayumi Hamasaki
Reel Big Fish
AFI
Mustard Plug
Rancid
MOVE
MOP
Redman and Method Man
Duke Ellington
Vader
Arch Enemy
Ill Nino
the list goes on and on probably almost 1000 at least.

Speaking of music - I got the new Marilyn Manson cd today. Crap, just like the previous one. I swear, he needs to get back to the basics, though I would imagine that is hard to do when you lost the heart and soul of the band (Twiggy!).

(*note* When I say "heart and soul" I mean the truly talented one. Twiggy wrote all the songs (musical - not lyrics) for Antichrist-Superstar and the previous albums. He was the man. Mix Manson\'s lyric with Twiggy\'s music and it\'s gold. )
