I like rittz, i like cess crew too. I'm not much younger than you. I figured at one point I was to old, bit then after being older for a while decided fuck what age I am, I just live life. My kids are safe and taken care of the bills are paid and I like to act 25 to stay young lol.
These guys were good too back in the day.. The little guy died and I haven't heard anything about them in eons'
Believe me brother, my mind is much younger than my body.
I don't feel that I'm too old to clown Arou d.
my best friend is 51and my wife is 46. My wife and I actually met in A juggalo chat room back when MSN chat was a thing.
my best friend is an old, Kentucky born Billy from the hilly regions. I got him into icp about 10 years ago and he's pretty much the only reason that I even pay attention to them anymore.
they're still as funny as all get out but I'm getting to the point that's it's like,"how many ways can you say the same shit"?.
Take twizted for example.
HOK was local fire in MI, until mad and Mon left.
here it is 25 years or so later and their still doing the same raps over new beats.
yall been doing this for 20+years and can't come up with a story or two?
Don't get me wrong mad and Mon never disappoint with the flow.
I just wish some of these older cats would switch it up some.
Rap and hip hop falls by the way side 9/10 times because it's mostly just the same shit over and over.
same shit with "modern rock".
Icp(psy in general), esham,twizted, etc...
theyre all contributing to the death of a sub genre because there seems to be no direction to advance.
it's all just different metaphor's and analogies to say the same shit.
that was the reason I turned my back on rap completely for about 10 years.
I used to produce tracks but I got so fed up with bullshit rap about cars, money and hoes that I refused to listen to any rap that wasn't strictly independent and I completely gave up on production.
I agree with you for the most part that rap sucks. There are very few mainstream artists that I feel are "bringing it" but the same can be said about every other genre.
this and this alone is why I search for my own music.
much like vape gear, i find out as much as i can,take reviews and opinions with a grain of salt and figure out weather it's worth a try or not.
with music though, for me, I'll jam the fuck out of just about any genre or style if the band, solo, group, etc. Is good at what they do.
example:
I'm not a huge fan of contemporary folk but this is a damn good song and the band pulls it off.

?? And I could go on with a bunch more. But they don't have lots of the more useful emoticons I've seen elsewhere. A funny little app this is
