There used to be a bar/club in Columbus with one side all country and the other all hip-hop. Coexisting was not happening haha! Whoever came up with plan wasn't thinking too well.

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not any good...

Yeah. There are several things I dislike. It doesn't mean they're bad, just not for me.

But, it COULD mean they are, in fact, bad. Like this music.

I feel like this has to be a troll thread. You trollin us, mister???

Well, I do like Upchurch... the rest was more of a test than a troll. I've not seen a rap thread here, so I expected to get some 'real rap' videos because I'm tired of about everything. Music in general is not good these days.
Tool, Slipknot and a few others still have my interest in the rock genre, but rap, mainly the mumble stuff
is killing me. I may not like some stuff you do, but I won't trash it... not my style.

I liked their first three, at the time, but now they just irritate me when I hear them?? Not even sure why...just seem formulaic er somethin'??:noidea:


Tool is overrated af too. Opiate is their best release, IMO.

You're not the first I've seen or heard say Tool is overrated. Why do you think that? It's what many consider the only 'good prog band' going (I disagree... see Porcupine Tree). I wasn't a fan of 10,000 Days, but up to Lateralus... damn. The lyrics have a lot to do with it for me as well.
As for the systematic, I agree. I have to search for diversity in there, and it's not easy.

Not a fan of "hick hop" at all. I feel like most of them are taking the music of people they dont like, and using it as their own. It give me douche chills most of the time.

FWIW, I've been called a "metal elitist", whatever that is? I get where you're coming from, Pete. Many of them do use someone else's track and rap over it. Even Upchurch, but he doesn't do the same type of 'rap' with it. He's a damned hillbilly, lol! I didn't even know he rapped for the longest time. I used to watch his vines and FB 'comedy' videos. Then I heard Elton John mention the guy and had to listen. He's good, but he'll eventually get old to me as well.
I need 'new' (to me) music suggestions, folks...

Wait, you call yourself a metal elitist and you're a Slipknot fan? This thread just went even further down the rabbit hole...

Yea I didn't have much background on the Adam Calhoun dude until this thread. It does seem a little off

But again as I said he will find and has found an audience.

Opiate sounds like it was recorded in a tin can under my sink. Love the tunes on it though. Aenima is still the standard for me from them.
