I certainly couldn't discuss good music in this thread without going off topic. We're all aware of the rap milieu. There's no way to defend it other than to just admit that one likes to fill his or her head with the imagery of the TO. It's not good for anyone's psyche to listen to that stuff. At best it's desensitizing. At worst it validates and encourages an anti social lifestyle.

I love how you can definitively state hip hop's only defense (which, by the way, is utter bull).

You already went off topic by showing your ass and not only criticizing an entire genre of music, but its listeners as well. So, again, what music do you deem to be good? Because it seems like you're just blowing smoke.

"You living for the lotto never hit it, I met a critic
I made her **** her draws
She said she tought Hip Hop was only guns and alcohol
I said "Oh hell naw!" but yet it's that too
You can't discrimahate cause you done read a book or 2
What if I looked at you in a microscope saw all the dirty organisms
Living in your closet would I stop and would I pause it "whoo""

I asked myself that exact same question.

Oh come on! As much as I loved the 80's and 90's you can't blanket the 2000's with "every rap song sucked". The majority of it does but a few have their place.

I wasn't trying to make a blanket statement about any certain time period, I just thought the rest of the songs that you included in that post didn't really seem to fit in with the types of songs that were being mentioned throughout the rest of the thread. I mean, Shaggy and Sean Paul? I don't like 50 or Nelly either but those other two seemed particularly out of place.

In what way are they out of place?

My dad and mom were married for 51 years until he passed away 2 years ago. They lived in the same house where I grew up in Memphis since 1972. We went to a Baptist Church a mile down the road.
Some people are just ignant.

A friend and I were talking about the chronic, and whether snoop and dre knew what the impact was going to be. We decided no way in hell. But the impact was undeniable.

Also...Dr Octagon.

Snoop may not have known but I'm pretty sure Dre knew it was going to be big. Maybe he didn't know it would be a landmark album.

I got a list here's the order of my list that it's in.
It goes Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie, Andre from OutKast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me.

Biggie > 2pac

Eminem = GOAT

Dr Dre = best producer

NWA = Best group

Notorious Thugs = best rap song ever

Eminem the best? Typical.
NWA doesn't hold a candle to OutKast.
Dr. Dre was great but he practically just added his own drum tracking to George Clinton's biggest hits.
Notorious Thugs is a decent song.
