    what you seem to have missed in all this is, yeah 80s rap is the fundamentals. but new rap is better. i liek old ass rap and i like new rap. you think the guys that played basketball in the 50s are better than say lebron or kobe? its the same with rap. styles evolve and get better. wayne is at the top along with jayz, they have the best styles and lyrics. come out of the 80s and learn to like new rap, its hot if you open your mind....well some of it is hot.

    Thats opinion based man, you cant argue that. Try telling my dad that new rock is better than Peter Frampton or Lynyrd Skynyrd, or Zeppelin or Steve MIller band. He will disagree with you all day long.

    You are stating your OPINION as fact, cant do that.

    I actually haven't missed anything. New rap is only better in the ears of the listener. You think it's better. I think otherwise. What's better is completely opinion based. There is no learning to like something you don't like. It's few and far between, but I've never said I hated all newer shit. Just most of it. I commented on a thread the other day about some dudes track (in this section) that I thought was real good.

    I'll say this, and you may not get this, but rap, back in the day, was more liked by the people listening to it then it is now, by the people listening to it. This means that although the audience was much smaller then (because of not having the exposure rap has got today), they were a lot more receptive to all forms of the genre. Everyone listened to everyone. Now that rap is much bigger and there are more people listening to it, there are more different, conflicting personalities. So it turns into more controversy than harmony.

    But to tell someone to learn to like it? Lolol. Later, QD.
