Basically, I wasn't saying any of that at all. It's interesting how you can share a point that makes perfect sense in your head, but confuses everyone else...

Saying that "there is no context to judge rap on, they just do what they want" seems silly. I can say the same thing about other genres/musicians. You can judge anything. It's easy... and it's regardless of whether they do what they want or say what they want to say, or chained up in the studio by a label forced to make certain kinds of music. I didn't say anybody couldn't do anything, I said that other people use shock value/do as they please and still get judged.

Have you noticed that many common English words have been appropriated and used "wrongly" by rappers for about four decades?

I'm sure Your facebook page is full of rap fans who agree with you. (Ha!)

This gives me even more reason to track down Kreashawn when she comes to my town for SXSW 2012. Among other things, I want to know what she thinks of you guys' racially and sexually motivated criticism of her word choice.

Way to miss the point entirely. I don't give a **** if someone is making up words, rap me a version of jabberwocky for all I care, I'm just sick of bandwagon jumping and having to hear the same word used the same way by the same type of people in what seems like every song ever.

And the opinions of other rap fans means jack ****. I don't like hearing a single word get pounded into the ground by every artist I hear. If other rap fans are all about hearing the same thing over and over again, then **** other rap fans. Its not like I'm losing sleep over not being friends with someone who can't even appreciate someone stepping outside of an established boundary creatively and do something different.

I'm going to listen to Deltron 3030 now. Because this is awesome:

Be there for the rap battle!
It's going to be interspectacular!
Fantabulous, it'll blow your socks off!
It's one of those things where,
Machine versus man!
Man versus woman!
Woman versus your mother!
Be there!

Intergalactic rap battle!
It's (scratch) instupituous!

And so is this: Deltron 3030 Lyrics by Del The Funky Homosapien

I agree 100%. Who the **** wants to hear this buildabear white girl say swag and talk in ebonics over and over again.

GB, put this in your pipe:

First we coerce your brain patterns
Colaborate with time consume and reprogram it
I apply the flow cannon
The combo so slamin
Automically reconstruct the old canvas
His logic impress
A hypnotic effect
Ya latin patent you could call it a gift
Man he all in the mix nuclear physicist
Geneticlly taylored every bit of this stimulus

3030 s such a good album its absurd.

There is context to judge rap music on.

It might be subjective, but don't box yourself into a corner by saying there is no context to judge.

Doing whatever you want? I think Avant-Garde musicians. Even rock and country musicians can do what they want. Rappers didn't invent shock value, or bring it to prominence.

The context line was mostly in response to you theory of the factor that divides underground and mainstream, which i realize was probably a joke.

All I'm getting at is that it's fine to not like it. Just don't say the use of it is wrong because it doesn't represent the literal definition. Nonsense language is a big part of hip hop/gang culture

SUH-WHOOOOP

SWAGGIN

Alright, so, in the original song i posted she said the word "swag" one time.

"i got the swag and its pumping out my ovaries" which is a good line, **** all yall.

You guys are seriously exaggerating the over-use of this word. It seems more like a personal vendetta because she doesn't make traditional conscious rap.

agreed, she isn't even someone who uses it that much, most people here are just attacking her cause of the scene she associates with.

The scene she associates with? Couldn't it be that some of us just think she's not a very good artist? Although every now and then she'll spit something clever, I still find the majority of her stuff just plain annoying. I don't give a shit if she wants to use words like swag, and nigga, just make the context not suck, please.
