Whatever you may think about Rap, nobody can dispute its power.

Your observations about rap are right on the mark.....and its "power" is directly proportional to the stupidity of those that listen to it....

I know what you mean. There almost as dumb as those morons who listen to country music (Ok...I know that's a push as no one can be that stupid). [/sarcasm]
 
That may be true for the music you listened to .. but I listened to some absolutely great music during the 80's.

No doubt. I hear the same thing said about 70's music because of the disco craze. Some of the best music ever came out of the 70's.

The 80's were a dry period but that wasn't the fault of the artist so much as how technology and record companies changed the industry.

You don't see groups like "The Band" or "The Eagles" in popular music today becuase they don't get to stay around long enough to develop that level of craftsmanship (I'll except country music. I'm not a big fan of country music but the best musicians and singer/song writers today are in country music because that industry allows their artist to develop over time.).
 
Yeah...that could be....

like...

Stick her in the ass, fuck and slap that ho
stick it in her mouth and she axes for mo....
she just be a nigger, don't deserve no mo...

brilliant rhymes
lyric portrayal of a culture shaped by being poor and powerless

I guess you could be right....

You have no future in rap.
