MT2008, I just can not stand rap music. I prefer old school stuff, including the following:

* Iggy Pop (both his solo career and his stuff with the Stooges).

* The Velvet Underground

* Lou Reed

* David Bowie

* Joan Jett

* Joy Division

* New Order

* Siouxsie & The Banshees

* Nirvana

I hate the rap "no snitching" culture. People think that when they know who a murder/rapist/thief/arsonist is and dont tell that there being cool hardcore gangstas and all but there are countless people who get hurt because of it

If he is going to listen to rap, at least get him to listen to good rap like the Wu Tang Clan

I like some of that stuff (not so much the abundance of late-70s/early-80s new wave, but definitely stuff like Iggy Pop and Nirvana). I also happen to like a lot of things, for various reasons.

*Shrugs* I once listened to Kanye West, too - "College Dropout" was my favorite album in 2004. I'm guessing you're too young to remember (and since you despise rap, I know you also don't care), but there was a time when Kanye was actually a respectable artist who made music that was new and fresh. In 2004, everybody was touting him as the guy who was going to break gangsta rap's stranglehold on hip-hop. Problem is, he let it all get to his head, and decided that he wasn't satisfied being a respected popular rapper - he had to be the biggest star in pop music EVAR. It's kinda sad, really; I think he should have stuck to what he did best and been satisfied with the respect he already had. But I guess for some people, once they taste fame, they've just gotta have more and more.

Anyway, if your brother at least likes "College Dropout", I don't see any reason to facepalm yourself over that.

My brother thinks Eminem is the awesomest thing EVURZ

My little brother has been watching Tyler Perry films on Netflix Instant (his movies suck and even Spike Lee hates them). I'm just patiently waiting for Adventureland to arrive, but for now, I think I might watch Easy A.

He'll get past it once he realizes that acting gangsta won't earn you "respect", as I learned 10 years ago (and as I continue trying to teach Zulu, to no avail). Plus, one can still listen to rap without wanting to act black. My gym/running playlist has David Banner, Flo Rida, and Three-6 Mafia songs, and I still listen to Lupe Fiasco. But because I no longer feel the need to adopt other people's identities as my own (or piss off my parents), I can just listen to rap without wanting to act gangsta.

Also, I had no idea there were still wiggers, in 2011? I figured that trend would have exhausted itself by now.

you already banned him, dont you think this is just pissing on his grave?
