Hence how they got their name.....Rammstein air base, home to the deadliest air show disaster in the history of mankind.I have a question:
Why does every 50 Cent topic turn into a topic about Rammstein, of all things?
Ponder over that one.
Anyway. I remember something about "Ramstein Airbase" in Germany during the recent Iraq war. How I laughed.
BTW Vert, you dont "dance" to heavy metal. You mosh and headbang to heavy metal. Besides, the only good songs that should be played by a dj is techno. Not crap and hip-hop. -

Alright...
As a rapper, he's not the greatest there is. I think whoever it was (I think Foozy) that said his melodies and beats are boring and whatever, that was completely retarded. If there is one thing that is carrying him beyond the average lyrics, they are Dr. Dre's beats. Dr Dre could make anybody a superstar, thanks to his beats alone. Anyways, 50 Cent is an average rapper, average lyricist, average everything. There are tons of better rappres out there, and there are tons of worse ones as well.
Most of the public loves the shittier rappers anyway. 50 Cent is a whole hell of a lot better then Ja Rule, Nelly, and Missy Elliot. That's for damn sure. Yes, there are some of the best rappers that are mainstream as well, but most of their shittier songs make it onto the airways. The rappers aren't stupid, they know that anything catchy, regardless of how "good" it is will sell records. So, they put out their catchy, untalented songs on the radio, and the rest of the album is incredible.
This is the main reason why so many people judge certain rappers. They think that because they heard "Without Me", they know how good Eminem is. Eminem is possibly the best rapper in the world, and songs like "The Real Slim Shady", "Without Me", and "My Name Is..." are his shittiest work he's ever done. Yet, people who have heard these think they are experts on hiim afterwards.
Want some good Eminem songs? Try "Till I Collapse", "8 Mile Road", and "Rabbit Run".
Jay-Z....Instead of songs like "Girls, Girls, Girls," and "03 Bonnie n Clyde", try "Meet The Parents", "Brooklyn's Finest", and "The Takeover".
Nas....Instead of "Made U Look" and "I Can", check out songs like "Book of Rhymes", "Dance", and "Rewind". His One Mic song was great however.
Joe Budden....just because you heard "Pump It Up", doesn't mean anything. Download "Walk With Me", "Angela", or "When Thugs Cry".
Anyways, back on subject. 50 is decent. He is always outshined by his G-Unit groupmate Lloyd Banks, so if you want some great rap, check out his songs. He's the dude with the real deep voice. I voted he's "awesome" because he's more towards awesome then sucking, but he's still nothing really incredible. He's in the spotlight right now...and he can do no wrong. Hey, is it his fault if the world has went completely crazy over his first three singles (In Da Club, 21 Questions, and Wanksta). Don't blame him for making the music, blame others for playing it so fucking much. -

Most teens today hate techno, today you'll see these DJ Joe Brown mixtapes. Peope wil still request songs of all types because they love them, but the huge majority could not stand that industrial noise and left. Also, you can do whatever you want, it depends on the artist and what the consumers want to do. Buyers wants to have sex to Sehnsucht, them they'll do.BTW Vert, you dont "dance" to heavy metal. You mosh and headbang to heavy metal. Besides, the only good songs that should be played by a dj is techno. Not crap and hip-hop.

Techno, as I define it, is that pathetic club shit. I do like most electronica, but that moronic drum-machine crap in the clubs (i.e. "Sandstorm") abosolutely sucks. -
Vert Offline
Electronica is gaining popuarity(House and Dance Pop), but the techno genre is something that this generation, in America atleast, is not feelin.
And also, if you wan't metal that people DANCE to, try Pitchshifter. -

Well, that is one shitty thing about America, being an American. Europe and Japan are known for kick ass techno. Americans hate techno cauz they got rap and hip hop. To me and many others, rap and hip hop suck and rock and techno live. Others think that rap and hip hop rulz and techno and rock dont. We have our different opinions and Im sticking to the fact that techno and rock music own over rap and hip hop.......Electronica is gaining popuarity(House and Dance Pop), but the techno genre is something that this generation, in America atleast, is not feelin.

Oh, and pitchshifter isnt all too good either. -

I cant vote that he sucks, because Monday in the club, they played "In Da Club," and I went wild (As did the rest of the place). BTW, "Magic Stick" followed.
Seriously, I agree with everything Iris said. Dre's beats make 50. -

American teens are into the techno because we have made so many alternative...during the 70's and 80's we took the disco and house road, that's what you get when you combine so many cultures.

Americans have a fad for all genres of music,but just because we're not apt to feelin' certain styles like techno, doesn't mean we're as narrowminded as you. -

Im not sayin that American teens are stupid because they hate my interest in music. Im sayin that I hate that some people hate techno w/o attempting to listen to it. Trust me, I used to listen to rap and hip hop...and it just wasnt kickin for me after a while. -

for the record.....EWWWWW. IMO, a good rapper will come up with good songs for radio and for their disc, they won't just throw crap on the radio. Eminem did this with 8mile, but his other discs he did not. 2pac, he had many quality songs on the radio and even better on his discs. I won't turn this into a 2pac vs. thing, but Eminem is not the world's best.Eminem is possibly the best rapper in the world, and songs like "The Real Slim Shady", "Without Me", and "My Name Is..." are his shittiest work he's ever done.

So wait, you're dissing an entire genre of music and them have the nerve to get mad because someone didn't find yours appealing?
They gave techno as much of a chance as you did for hip hop. Basically, you're mad because they performed the same act that did with similar prejudgement...You have made nothing clear but an act of self-righteous stickyafootinya mouth. -

Ok, this coming from someone who loves Ja Rule...
I rest my case.
And for the record, I didn't include Tupac or Biggie for one reason....(kinda obvious reason??)
Yes, 2Pac is the best of all time. I'm talking about today.
