The [REAL] Problem with Music

Okay so every now & again I feel compelled to express my opinion on certain genres of music. 9/10 times this turns into a bullshit argument amongst faggots who are total shut-ins. No really, it's actually a serious problem. People don't seem to understand that musical taste is definitely a form of one persons opinion. Hell, I barely understand this because I hate people who have no taste. But I guess theres a difference between actually listening to real music & listening to japanese garbage from video games. You don't speak japanese, don't try & act like you're so super cool by listening to the shit. I have no problem with Bemani music, when I'm playing Bemani games. That's the only time I want to hear it. I do not care to listen to this music when I'm not playing these games. Why? Because I actually have tastes that expand outside of my hobbies.

So who'd'a'thunk that saying that rap is good music & a valid form of expression would cause an argument? I mean really, rap is so popular these days, you'd think that most people might be sick of it but at least they wouldn't start bullshit arguments... Think again. You've got to imagine that people who can't even appreciate rap are definitely ignorant racist shut-ins & it's true. Music might be opinion, but it's definitely fact that those who hate rap are racist faggots.

I mean really, who else would look at a car pulled over by a cop & say (about the driver) "Oh, what a surprise he's black." Then again, these are the same people who believe smoking is bad for you but eating nothing but fast/junk food is A-OK. Sorry dudes, while my lungs are getting black your arteries are getting clogged the fuck up. That's okay right? Your arteries only allow blood to flow to the heart, right? I mean, sure you need your lungs to breathe, but you most definitely need your arteries for your entire body to work. So while I'm puffing on my cigarette I'll remember that all the junk food you idiots eat is killing you just as fast as my cigarette is killing me. We all have our vices, so nothing makes yours any better. It is terrible to think about how most people are so ignorant as to not even realize what they're eating IS BAD FOR THEM.

But that's what you get when you let the internet & video games educate you. That's not the point of this post though, the point of this post is that having any sort of conversation about music that doesn't begin with "I LOVE METAL & SUCK DICK" is going to end in an argument. & to me that's a huge problem. Why can't we have our own opinions anymore? Why is it that most people these days seem to think that while your opinion is invalid because it's an opinion theirs is bible fucking law. I don't get it, is the world really that full of ignorant scum? Fuck it though dude, these are the same people who went to see MC Chris with Math the Band opening & decided to hate on Math the Band. Hell, they wouldn't be at a rap show if it wasn't sponsored by Adult Swim anyway, so why in gods name should they like the opening band? Even if that very same opening band has more talent in their index finger than MC has in his entire body they're still gonna hate it because it's unfamiliar to them.

The familiarity thing really kind of bugs me, it's like if you haven't heard of it then it sucks. Honestly, I wouldn't believe it if it weren't the truth, but I was there. I saw Math the Band & left halfway though MC's set. I was upset, five people were dancing for Math, /everyone/ was dancing for MC. I get it though, but fuck, Math the Band is way easier to dance to. I guess it's because faggots will listen to their false idols even if they tell them to jump off a cliff. MC Hesh says "Dance, monkey, dance."

I'll put another example on the table, I have a friend who really likes Ronald Jenkees but absolutely hates rap. Uh... Dudes, Ronald Jenkees is a self proclaimed instrumental rap/hip-hop artist. His music is specifically designed for Rap. However, rap music is repetitive, but Jenkees isn't? I don't get it, hell, the few songs that he does rap on are more repetitive than most radio rap out there today.. There's nothing wrong with that, I mean the guy's autistic for fucks sake. But still, he's a white dude who actually has mad respect for rap & hip hop, that's a very rare trait these days. Countdown til someone states that you have to be autistic to enjoy rap.

Either way, all the excuses are the same; "It's repetitive" "I just hate the people who give it a bad name & try to act like that" "The image it portrays sucks" etcetc. I'm sorry, do you people have a problem with fun? I mean really, I don't even /drink/ & I enjoy songs about getting drunk in the club. Fuck man, I hate going to clubs too, how is it possible for me to even like these things? I mean, the music doesn't relate to me in the least bit but I can still enjoy the shit out of it. I still hate most of Lil Waynes music & I really hate Soulja Boy but shit, at least those dudes are out there living it. The american dream of being so in debt to the music industry that you pretty much have to be a dancing chimp pumping out the same repetitive songs after the other. Who cares? If you've ever read "The problem with music" by Steve Albini you'll know that the music industry is basically the biggest pyramid scheme ever, but really, without it what would we have? Everyone has to get paid, since money is the only real motivator in this country & I have no problem with that, but the reason for all this garbage 'rap' is because it's what the general public wants to hear. Not many people care to hear about living in poverty & selling crack, not to mention the Notorious B.I.G, Tupac & BIG L are all dead. Not to mention, they're still selling records even after their death, where the fuck is that money going other than the greedy ass music industries pockets. Whatever though, they're dead & there's not much anyone can do about that. Either way, if Big & Pac were still around do you think for a second that this club music that's disguised as rap would even exist? Fuck no, people would still be dying over what they listen to.. Is that really something worth getting fucking shot over? You prefer the east coast to the west coast therefor you're going to get fucking killed. Yeah dude, Rap definitely should have stayed the way it was in the 90's.


Oh well, I guess you're the same type of people who only played GTA to run people down & kill people with no consequence. & I suppose that's my whole problem with the thing, it's obnoxious. Everyone I know says that the golden age of rap was the mid to late 90's & I really don't see how they see it that way. Maybe it's because that's when rap was more dramatic & real, I mean shit, people were getting shot & killed then! God forbid rappers these days not want to get fucking shot, so they write songs about getting drunk with friends, having sex with women (something most people who just sit around inside all day & play video games & barely interact with others know nothing about) & smoking pot (another thing shut-ins believe is worse than what they're doing to their bodies with fast food).

SO FUCKING WHAT? It sells! That's what the industry wants, they want to move units & not have to worry that their latest investment is going to bomb & never be heard from again, I mean shit, they just signed him for 5 records after all. I guess people just don't want to be depressed anymore & they just want to listen to positive music about positive things. I mean shit, you're right, rap should totally be about robbing people, killing people, being poor, having to fight to survive & selling drugs. That's what the general public definitely wants to hear, right? They want to hear suffering & misery? I'm sorry, but I just don't believe that. People want to have fun & be positive. The only reason the industry has progressed this way is because it's what the general public wants. So fucking what if you don't want it? The industry doesn't give a fuck about you. No really, do you think they really care that one of the million trillion billion people who bought that album didn't care for it? Fuck no, they're too busy bathing in a bathtub full of money.


Fuck it though, you people suck. No really, if you lack appreciation for real music & then proclaim that the soundtrack to Silent Hill is the best thing ever you need to go get killed. Or alternatively you can move to Japan where you will live in complete misery. No really, the fact that most Japanese people really don't like Americans even if you can play IIDX on doubles or you can pass 40's on Pop'n you're still going to be hated in Japan. It's a fact! Japanese people just really don't like Americans. Sorry, you're going to have to get a new life goal, faggots. Or I mean, you could move there & be picked on until you're basically forced the fuck out.

Whatever though, grow up idiots.

I LOVE YOU BLOG FRIENDS. YOU'RE ALL TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL.
