I hate crabcore. It's not the music actually. Their attitude. Oh, gee. That's gross.

Yes, I cut out what everyone who likes hip-hop would call 'the good bit', but you get the idea.
The tapedecks on the video are mine, a friend made the video after he repaired those machines for me.

I like your little clip of the Roots song, but I haven't heard enough hip hop to get beyond not liking most of it, and not knowing what qualities about hip hop its fans most appreciate.

Carry on.

I like s_k's words, his tape decks, and his use of

emoticons. I don't feel annoyed by them at all. If I did feel annoyed by what someone said to the point that I didn't like reading his words, I'd stop reading rather than fault the person for writing.

The Blues Travelers band has been influenced by a variety of genres, including blues-rock, psychedelic rock, folk rock, soul, and Southern rock.
They are known for extensive use of segues in their live performances.

I never really got into 70s style prog rock.

This.

I can get into a few bands like Yes & Gentle Giant -- basically prog acts that don't take themselves too seriously. But the bombastic, over-the-top ugliness that characterizes twenty minute interludes is really disheartening. King Crimson is the only real prog act that I can sit down, listen to & be mesmerized every second of it.

Any takers?

if you don't like it merely cos it's "rock", try some Canterbury prog, they have a lot of jazz elements - National Health's first two albums are a good place to start

BUMP!

The new 'Roots' album, "Undun" might go some way to change a few opinions on Hip Hop. Excellent album so far.
