On december 24 at8:00 in the morning a young 14 year old by the name Scott Johnson was found dead. Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death. His mother checked his email to see if she could figure out what had happened. Turned out he was still signed into myspace. She found he had gone to sleep after he read and didn't response to a chain letter. If you don't repost this to six videos a girl with no face will kill u tonight. Sorry I don't feel like dying
@mociutesblynai I agree yandigles,rap is not what people seem to define it as today. I remember well when the local bay area news did some coverage on a new street fad called rapping. They interviewed guys beat boxing and rhyming on street corners for money. Some seem to define rap as everything that is bad with hip-hop though hip-hop to me is born of TV culture.
@yandiggles hmm. why is this hip-hop? as far as i know hip-hop is a culture that consists of the 5 main elements: MCing, DJing, Breakdance, Graffiti and Beatbox. Combine the first 2 and u get Rap music. i have no idea why people started to call rap music something thats on the radio/tv and whats in the underground as hip-hop. rap stands for rhytmic american poetry, doesnt it? so id say if its poetry rhymed on a beat its rap. feel free to correct me if im wrong.
@derbyderbi1
rap is what you see on the tv. hip-hop is all elements combined, with intelligent subtext. well at least thats what it means to me. krs one says it better though :D
