btw "projecting your preconceptions of x onto this stuff and pronouncing it good because it serves them back to you" is how *any* idea about *anything* is formed!
Good to remember in terms of human psychology sure but imo not a particularly effective approach to examining one's conscience re: enjoyment of street rap ---

I didn't sneak NWA & 2 Live Crew into my room by shoving them down the front of my pants to sit here and listen to this shit

There wasn’t a ton of music to organize, but for some reason all of the fuckheads loved pulling out 2 Live Crew’s As Nasty As They Wanna Be CDs from the section to rub on their JNCO jeans covered genitals and just lay the discs back on the top of the section like they’re returning a fucking cafeteria tray.

i mean Al was dismissing me the other day for even indicating i was softening on the joey badass thing
this is not what happened at all btw, i just called bullshit on your comparison between joey badass's nostalgic rap and frankie beverly's r&b that people became nostalgic for decades later

Al, I could see how you would just love for that to be the case for me but there's nothing for me to "get over" other than the fact that his strain of douchery is still alive here, as so excellently demonstrated by you

one of the few hiphop posters here apparently views him as GOAT, maybe that has more to do w/me not being able to "get over hit" than whatever killer zing he unleashed my way in '04

Ha no it was meant generally but it does actually apply there, lol
No this dates back to the Kogan days, the worst people weren't the attn-seeking cunts but the enablers who'd only post snide "lol"s and act like they weren't part of the problem

GD, work your ethan issues out elsewhere. he's on facebook, write him a long letter and let it all out. bringing him up here on a monthly basis, over and over and over, is pointless.

and maybe i'm wrong that that strain of clowning assholeness that still permeates hiphop discussion here stems from him. maybe it's endemic to internet hiphop discussion. after all, people are just manifesting their love for a culture rooted in putdowns. nothing to do with white guys discussing a living black artform w/other white guys via a faceless communication mode.

ilm is prob the most civilised place to discuss rap on the internet
― tpp, Monday, 21 January 2013 19:05 (eleven years ago) link
genre-specific internet music discussion is really depressing in at both rap and metal and I would guess in other genres that I don't pay attention to. Even classical boards (not the ilm threads, ilm classical threads are some of the most useful sharing of ideas I know of) are pretty dickish in a less hardman but no less unpleasant way.
