This is not true...AT ALL.
FOR instance, take Atmosphere (one of my favorite hip-hop groups). They sing about a plethora of things, a lot of their songs are like stories. That's just one example.

Eminem I barely understand... Slim shady... what?

I never coined the term 'gorilla vocals'. That was someone else. I don't like racism because I get a lot of it myself.

If thats all you see and hear despite you "branching out" to listen to more, than you clearly arent trying. Look, Im pretty ignorant of rap myself, most of it I dont enjoy, and the only "rap" artist I actively listen to is M.I.A....so I just dont comment on it, knowing that Im ignorant of it. If in the future I get really into rap, and I dislike certain aesthetics/groups, THEN I will comment on it. Don't form opinions on things you're ignorant of, and you wont get any flak for it.

Because that post didnt imply an ignorance of what you were bashing...it seemed that like many of us, you also were frustrated at poorly filmed performances, you demonstrated enough knowledge to criticize...thats all we ask. Stick to posts like these and you wont be attacked as harshly.

But you are aware that comparing black people to apes is seen universally as racist right?
Think very very carefully about what you are saying.

Maybe hes refferring to white rappers....snow monkeys?

Regardless of whether individuals find it offensive or not it does have racial connotations and reflects badly on the forum if we allow it's use here.

So from now on nobody will use this term again. anyone who does can look forward to a lengthy ban. And yes that also includes anyone who uses it in jest as well.

This ends here and now.
