Live instrument hip hop band UNappreciation post

[Big_Stacks]

Hey M***,

The demo I was referring to in the "Awkward Situation" post was from one of those type groups. It was asscrack booty!!!! I find these groups corny. They're trying too hard to be "something" (whatever the fuck that is), and it comes off contrived. Typical skateboard rap at its worst!!!

Peace,

Big Stacks from Kakalak

what is this "skateboard rap" you speak of?
It's another name for that genre I peg "suburban rap" that's corny-ass, contrived, lacking in flava, with stiff-ass rhymin', weirdo lyrical content, and overdone wannabee overtones (e.g., Aesop Rock, Buck 65, Mountain Bros, etc; insert group from the suburbs on indie rap labels here). It sounds awkward, like my Black ass trying to make a convincing alternative rock album. Usually, the beats suck ass, but every now and then, this can be the better part of the recording. But the MCs.......NEVER!!!!! Just a note for those who think I'm invoking race here, not all White guys rap wack like they do in suburban rap. At the moment, Eminem is lyrically the truth (though I don't like his beats). Hell, I can't stand most brothas rhymin' either cause the lyrics are so damn simple. Wack comes in all shades, but a lot of those homegrown hip-hop bands have the stench of suburban rap all over them!!!

So you hate all of commercial hip-hop and hate almost all of underground rap music. What do you like besides Ultramagnetic?
Really???? So, suburban rap makes up (in your words) "almost all of underground rap music." I big up stuff on here (rarely) cause most new stuff is butt. Here are some LPs I've liked in the last 5 years (examples):

-"The Listening"-Little Brother.
-"The Unseen"-Quasimoto.
-"Long Hot Summer"-Masta Ace.
-"Grind Date"-De La Soul.
-"Madvillainy"-Madvillain.
-"Soul Travellin'"-Strange Fruit Project.
-"Supreme Clientele" and "The Pretty Toney Album"-Ghostface.
-"Love Hell or Right (Da Come Up)"-Mathematics.
-"Reflection Eternal"-Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek.
-"Fantastic Vol. 2"-Slum Village.
-"Now or Never: Odyssey 2000"-Easy Moe Bee.
-"Champion Sound"-Jaylib.
-"H.N.I.C."-Prodigy.
-"Take it or Squeeze It"-The Beatnuts.
-"Further Adventures of Lord Quas"-Quasimoto.

damn usually what you have to say is much more intelligent than this "skateboard rap" genre you speak on. maybe you mean emo rap?

i don't see where what you said has anything to do with a skateboard. maybe you think all skateboarders are white rappers?? not sure about that, what i can tell you is that some of the best skateboarders in the whole world happen to be black. i do agree with you that "corny-ass, contrived, lacking in flava, with stiff-ass rhymin', weirdo lyrical content, and overdone wannabee overtones" hiphop is wack as hell but to label it "skateboard rap" is ignorant on your part.
Damn--you mad?

No, the "skateboard rap" thing was poking fun at suburban rap, that's all. I didn't mean to demean skateboarders by associating them with wack MCs, though they do dress similarly.

1). We have very similar tastes in underground hip-hop (You check the side project from Strange Fruit Project producers on BBE?)
2). I call suburban rap "underground shit that even I don't listen to" which means "anticon, non-phixion etc..".

word, I really can't stand Hiero or Swollen members either.

Yep!!!! Those are the "types" to which I was referring. I didn't expect it to be so bad the way dudes on various message boards would prop it.

For me, not a requirement. I prefer hip-hop that has some redeeming entertainment quality either lyrically, through charisma, musically, or even by use of humor (e.g., The Beatnuts). Usually, suburban rap lacks all of these attributes. It's just blah!!! It just sits there like turds in a toilet bowl.

Suburban like Public Enemy, De La Soul, EPMD, etc. Long Island suburban?

You don't even have to answer that...I'm just trying to poke fun at the suburban generalization.

Scarface grew up in the suburbs of Houston listening to Kiss.

Maybe that's why skateboard rap is a better name.

He listened to Kiss but I wouldn't really call his neighborhood the suburbs.

Oh, I was just getting at Young Phonics a little bit with that one.

Its all shades of grey. Jurassic 5 and M.O.P. both do a good job.

I'm anti suburban bashing, pro-doing music that moves you (and maybe will move others) and anti-mimickry/gimmickry/bastardization.
