Based on what though?

You don't know his music and you don't even have an ear for rap.

Like you don't even like the genre... Yet you expect me to take you seriously when you vaguely hint that a rapper is bad cause he's popular.

Apparently you don't think whites who support blm are

I'm just saying at the same ratio that your elitist white friends disparage hip hop I expect the same ratio but inversed to appreciate hip hop asking black blm supporters.. since I'm just guessing that being black they are less likely to disparage the number one fprm of black music the same way that you and your white friends do. That's simply A guess based on my experience.... As I'm sure your comments are based on your own experience.

I wouldn't take it personally, TH, if people don't recognize or care. The best you can do is post someone's death that was well-known for their craft and hope that someone is interested in, maybe, going beyond their safe area to find out more - a history, an influence, etc.

As for what I post in the R.I.P. thread, it usually sits in an area connected to what, at least some, people talk about here. Yeah, I'm gonna point to someone in jazz, rock, rap, "world" music, etc, but I see no reason to point out that someone as musically well-known as Christa Ludwig or Bob Fass died on Saturday because they are within artforms that are rarely spoken of here (when there's the relatively slim chance that music is actually discussed here). And, yes, sometimes it's just personal preference that decides what gets posted. That's how we learn about others.

It's nothing against DMX, just a reaction to Batty's flippant comment which implies nobody knew who Steinman was, which I assure you people certainly did.

I reckon had adi not gone on his rant there would have been a post or two about BMX sorry DMX and that would have been it. My point being that unless you're ****ing HUGE like Prince or Bowie, you need to have done or been accused of having done something controversial for people to take notice. Rostasi posts eulogies to people here all the time whom I don't know - mostly jazz guys I guess - and nobody acknowledges them, or very seldom anyway. I just feel for a talent like Steinman to pass and nobody know or care, but a rapper who I didn't know (and why would I? I know sod-all about the hip of the hop) to get so much coverage annoys me a little. Probably would not have had it not been for Batty's sarcasm, which really was uncalled for, but that's Batty for you.

You know, **** it. I checked and you're right. I take it back. I'm a whiny bitch. Just upset about losing Steinman. My bad.

That's racist.
Would be a great album title for a white rapper though.

Danny brown is good but he's the kind of rapper that is typical for a white boy rock fan who doesn't like rap.

The fact that you can't appreciate rappers like DMX or Prodigy makes you seem way less punk rock to me tbh
I didn't like the Da Vinci Code though.

You are obsessed with some punk rock aesthetic that makes you dismiss hip hop in general. Not just specific rappers but the art form as a whole. Fight is as you may, that's definitely a whiteboy move. It's literally indistinguishable from rednecks who say can't spell crap without rap as if that's remotely clever. The fact that you diss your parents rock music doesn't change this at all.
Reminds me of someone (can't remember who - Carlos Alomar? Guy famous for playing the fretless bass?) anyway he met Bowie and said "dude was the whitest guy I ever saw! Like, he was translucent!"
