    I do not have a problem with you not liking it or even thinking it is not good.

    I have a problem with you making blanket statements about the majority of it sounding like 90s or American rap, when that is not true.

    Enough with the bitching... Let's use this thread to promote Irish artists and tunes.

    Lethal Dialect is giving away his first album LD50:

    Decent album and some serious beats by G.I. and Johnnyboy.

    Why do you think I've never listened to ihh?

    I'm just trying to get a feel for who you like in IHH. You made a statement indicating that there are some that you do like, just curious who they are?

    I'm in agreement that there is some similar sounding IHH people out there, but there are plenty of exceptions for this.

    Did I say there was some I like, or some that are actually quite good?
    I've never stated I'm as up to date as the likes of yourself, but from what I've heard an awful lot do sound similar to each other.

    Conor I mentioned the thing about 90s beats yesterday, we've been having this discussion for much longer than that.
    Your problem is with opinion, and the fact that if someone makes a statement you disagree with you assume they are bull shytting and havnt listened to what it is they are talking about.

    Ihh is not original, you've countered that by saying neither is American hip hop, you can't even disagree with me, but you will still argue the case because you assume I'm bull shytting.

    You said:
    The majority of ihh sounds alike, of course it does, it's not original.

    That to me would give the impression that there is some that doesn't sound alike, just wondering who that was.

    You asked which are the ones that don't sound alike, I asked you why you feel I'm bull shytting.
    you answered saying you only wanted to know who I like, as i had stated there was some I like.
    I answered that I wasn't sure if I said I liked anyone, to which you have replied stating I have given the impression that there are some that don't sound alike, your all over the place.

    Well who does sound different then? why are you avoiding answering the question, it's a fairly simple one.

    We've been having this argument on the board for about a year now and we've gotten no closer to resolution on it. Part of me would like to blame Hugh but another part of me wants not to blame Hugh so we don't have to listen to anything more on the subject..

    Forget it. I had asked you a simple enough question so that we can see who in IHH you like. You seem to think there is some hidden agenda. There is not.
    I'm simply trying to find out if there is anyone you like, given what you are saying, there is the possibility that there is someone you like.
    I am simply trying to expand this discussion so that we dont get bogged down on the same argument. But this seems to have sparked a defensive position on your part which has led to another argument.

    I dont believe I am all over the place here, I asked a question and in 2 or 3 responces, there has been no answer. Some might suggest you are all over the place in this instance.

    tbf you made two different statement which had nothing to do with each other.

    I appoligise if your agenda was to simply find out who I like, rather than trying to prove I'm bull shytting.
    I assumed you were going down the Conor route of, name names or your lying, if you weren't my bad.
    As for wat your trying to get to, I never said I had favourite rappers, ive said I liked certain songs, I encouraged some guy who left some songs.
    and when I say majority, Its only me trying not to say "all" as I havnt heard it everything.

    not essentialy irish hip hop but made up of irish and english members marxman had a strong republican and socialist theme to many of there songs they never really made it even though one of their tracks has a premo beat.
