The next NWW project, which Stapleton is working on at the moment, is going to be a hip-hop album. It will also feature a very talented female rapper.

stence where do you think I live? this his puzzling the hell out of me
what I said:
it's foul enough to make you reexamine anything you might've thought about his previous work
I'd stand by that, and don't think it's actually that reactionary a position from a critical standpoint

3. Unusal or experimental vocal intonation and phrasing. Or vocal lines processed electronically with more than just a vocoder.
Lyrics Born. If you're not J3ss H4rv3ll, you may likey a lot. He's very chameleonic and unprecedented. And funky as fuck.
4. Hip hop with heavy use of non-western influences and sounds (African, Indian, Asian) or peripheral western sounds. And not just a programmed beep vaguely rooted in a non-western scale.

Dude, shut the fuck up."giving it a bad name," what the fuck are you, 12?And I never claimed that I KNEW he hadn't heard world destruction! For fuck's sake, you guys can be assholes. I asked him if he heard it, he ignored my question, so I assumed that meant he hadn't.What the fuck does it take to NOT get treated like shit around here and still disagree with someone!?
I think the original poster got so much heat because he seemed to have this misconception about what rap is, and then he suggested it should be made more "progressive" by elements, which are either not progressive or already exist in rap. So, before you criticize rap for being "not progressive", you should listen to it a bit more.
Which is what I was saying the entire fucking time.

How exactly was I being immature?Looking up people's personal information on the internet? Oh wait, that was someone else.Personal insults? Nope, someone else again.Comparisons to other board members held in less esteem?Nope, that would be other people too.
An attempt to have a frank discussion about music? How "immature" of me.Did you even READ this thread, "nickalicious"? Maybe you'll pay attention if I use yr email address to track down yr personal information.
to o. nate - who said I was trying to stop him? as I said before - "he can listen to whatever he damn well pleases."

Sadly, because life is deeply unfair, I have no interest or desire in going back and singling out everyone on the thread who was acting the ass, so you'll have to settle for the following:

J0hn I'm surprised you aren't giving Baraka the benefit of the doubt, y'know, poetic license and all. And the "one state westward" stuff was about how your position is exactly that of the Democratic governor of New Jersey, James McGreevey, who eliminated the New Jersey Poet Laureate position because Baraka wouldn't resign - somebody said "at least he's not Rick Santorum," who is of course one state westward in Pennsylvania.
Read more about it from Baraka's p.o.v. if you like. Not saying I agree with his reasoning all of the time, but the attempts to silence him because he dare write a poem are outrageous and uncalled for.
