Yet again I must point out that my ranting is going against MTV etc because they are the most "WATCHED AND UTILISED MUSIC MEDIA'S OUT THERE AT THE MOMENT!!!!" - If there was a decent variety, then I'd shut my yap, but of course you haven't Listed any other "Popular" methods of watching / hearing "Decent" hip hop music as to put me in my place...

as with all genres of music there are a number of ways of finding out what's going on in the scene..

websites -
http://www.hiphopsite.com/
http://www.undergroundhiphop.com/
http://www.allhiphop.com
http://www.rapmusic.com/
http://www.sixshot.com/ - quite mainstream
etc...

radio -
jazzfm 89.8
powerfm (www.powerfm.org) - mostly dance-y-er stuff but has a few hiphop shows.

there's a wealth of information out there, not as if it's hard too find.

Of course not - Yet again, for the third time I have to state that MTV etc is the most watched / listened to media, so forgive me for not taking into account the few other media's out there and commenting on them...

in fairness if you're looking for new good music of any sort mtv is the wrong place to look.

You can't deny that a portion of what I've said above is not true, and until you can prove me wrong,

i agree with the general thrust of your argument, i.e. that MTV sucks donkey balls. however i don't think that hiphop is much more badly reflected on it than any other genre and take issue with your prior statements that hiphop has gone down the drain in the last while. i've listed many, both up and coming and well established hiphop acts knocking out quality tunes and above several places to find out about new music of the hiphop variety.

i think if you gave any of them a listen you'd agree that hiphop is very much alive and well.

why don't YOU do some research and put me in my place, rather than attempt to make me out to be a misinformed little Hip-Hop basher...

what do i need to research pray-tell?

I expected flaming, so your response doesn't suprise me...

flaming is pointless. i prefer a well mannered debate with the odd sarcastic low blow thrown in.

I may be mistaken but I thought 'hip-hop' was instrumental music, just beats and samples and stuff.

Thank you Tibor, you hath done well... Pity the majority of music listeners still watch MTV though... Kill them... Kill them all...

No one is paying you to listen to it. If you don't like it don't listen to it. Simple.. problem solved and then you won't have to make threads like this.

Oh, thats just the arsehole response...

This be here a forum of discussion?
Opinion be floating in these here seas...


Personaly, I think that about %95 of people DON'T listen to music, but just repeat what others think are "Cool"...

yup. MTV is pretty darn shit. And most/all of the hiphop played on radio stations now are over payed teenagers that are over payed and cant sing for shiy...........but they get money any way. Mosy nu-metal is also pretty samey/boring/shit.
