I love rap music. I grew up a metal head but one fine day while on my 15 minute break at SHOP-RITE I ‘found’ a Sony Walkman in the break room. Inside the Walkman was a Big Daddy Kane tape (Long Live the Kane) and it changed my life. The drums were unreal (I am a drummer) and I really dug how Big Daddy would rap about household items such as Calgon bubble bath, 7-up soda and other weird shit. Thanks to Big Daddy I became a huge fan of Tupac, Biggie, Tribe Called Quest, Wu-Tang, Jungle Brothers, etc.
In my 20 years of listening to rap there have been two times that white rappers have impressed me. The first time was Third Bass. Their album ‘Derelicts of Dialect’ was amazing from start to finish and is still fun to listen to today. The next is obviously Eminem who is fucking brilliant. But that’s it. End of story. Case closed. White men can’t rap minus two exceptions. So please young white men of the New York City Subway, stop rapping while listening to your ipod. I love Nas just as much as you do but…. I don’t love YOU singing Nas. YOU sound like an idiot.
And don’t try to prove me wrong or I will just make you look silly.
