Even Gone from Late Registration sounds under produced and hollow. Gone has absolutely no transitions. Chrisb3 could have made that beat with stock software. Also this is nothing new, Kanye has always been heavily critiqued early in his career for sounding like a soundclick producer and emcee.

Bad example to make your point with. The only time Kanye over produces is when hes trying to make a single, which admittedly is most of his work.

He really is a scumbag. I don't know Taylor Swift at all . . . for all I know she could be a real cunt. But I feel sorry for her there. He literally took away her speech, then leaves her there standing shocked, and MTV producers rudely cut away.

Kanye delivered. It wouldn't be a VMA if he didn't trample on someone or throw a rager backstage.

MTV must have no problem with it because year after year they let him run around the stage whenever he wants. Nobody asks him to stay in his seat. I guess they can't tell him nothin! This is his 4th or 5th time crashing an award show.

Chrisb3 you're probably listening to "mainstream" rap. Though some of the "mainstream" stuff isn't half bad. There are good and bads in all genres.

They can't hear music, they don't know shit about music. They couldn't make a mainstream quality beat if their life depended on it.

Pharrell and Timbaland get 1,000,000 - 1,500,000 USD per beat. Even the simplistic producers like Scott Storch get a few hundred thousand per beat.

Go get em son, you know how easy it is. Free money! whooooo were all gonna be rich after we sack these no talent scumbags.
This.

Go do it. If all this is crap to you. Why come in here to this thread? You are using a generalization of genres and stereotypes. Grow up and maybe actually explore the genre instead of listening to your Top 40 countdown and assuming the whole industry is garbage.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh shit, that's funny.

Rap, hiphop, boybands, whatever you want to call it is music in the same way that rape is romance.

The reason they sell well? Because it has a hard, loud base beat that makes it mindless rhythm. Go listen to some actual music and you'll get emotions out of it. This shit's sole purpose is so the ADD generation of faggots that unfortunately didn't die in childbirth 19 years ago has constant background noise because they're afraid that the silence will make them aware of the emptiness facing their future lives as hair stylists and door-to-door security salesmen.

Kor is right though. It's not music, just looped beats and speaking into a mic.
It's retarded shit and possibly the worst "music" out there. Whenever I pass someone listening to their coon tunes and listening to their shitty trunk door rattle all to hell I can't help but look at them, smile and shake my head. It's a joke and most of the people who think they're "bad asses" listening to it are just as big of a joke.

Bone Thugs and Harmony - Crossroads.

Maybe it's nostalgia but rap just hasn't been any better than then.

I see now. You're one of those people that looks for reasons to be offended. It must be frustrating to go through life like that.

Great song, and it didn't have a base line made up of a single note. Beatles > this entire genre.
