Love the irony. "I don't need rap, told you rap need me". These dudes are the coolest.

@GnomesAmok I'M A NO HEAD

[@sommelierofstench]

@GnomesAmok i know you were haha. but you clearly are hte one who doesnt understand sarcasm haha. anyways, no. bow down to me. i reign supreme. i am the music god of youtube. sweet rhymez this is the greatest group ever. i could probably never do this ever in my life. my jaw was dropped instantly. youre right. this shit is great!

[@Mooninite2021]

@delnuggets The thing is, I keep hearing that Das Racist offends the Hip Hop community like someone plastered 'Fraud' on their forehead while handing them a contract (Uh, Drake). I mean, you want to name some groups with some 'real' talent just so people have an idea of your idea of a non-offensive 'hip hop' troupe? Also, speaking of gay beanies, that mustache is a strong look metal-head.

[@ShackNastyVideos]

@delnuggets but talent has literally no intrinsic effect on the enjoyability of music. just by being 'talented' at shredding guitar, writing songs, rapping, or etc. (as in you can do these things 'well' because of practice or just you're good at them) doesn't mean you can make 'good' music. while you interpret DR to not have as much talent as instrumentalists, they can still create music that people can enjoy. no music is truly shit, it's just a listener not enjoying it and labeling it shit

[@sommelierofstench]

@GnomesAmok I did try but it was making me angry

[@DrippingYellow]

Stop it! You're scaring me!

[@victorvasquez-nk2ge]

nobody was, lmao the guy on the couch doesn't rap also.

[@victorvasquez-nk2ge]

nobody was lip singing or synching.

[@sommelierofstench]

@GnomesAmok if it all was like this id never listen to it

[@LunaGalaxiies]

why was he lip singing?-that's all i'm saying! it's your rap, rap it.

[@gricka31]

I think you mean lip-syncing. And is he? Fooled me

[@MattG1027]

See, this is why I didn't go see them live when they came through. I love their first two mix tapes but if I was standing in the audience for this I would feel like I was being punk'd (as I'm sure everyone else in that room did after this). At least they put out a proper LP so I can give them some money for those mix tapes.

[@sommelierofstench]

@FloydIV i dont know everything about music. i just think these guys are shit. that's my opinion. ive never heard them before and i was checking them out to see what they sounded like. i wasnt impressed. go get offended and cry about it. and no. i never compared myself to them. that little paragraph you wrote up there failed to make a valid point. youre trying really hard though

[@woodbell67]

I think they were loved by their parents, and rarely heard the word "No". There is a down side to getting ungraded report cards. This is it.

[@sommelierofstench]

@Mooninite2021 There is very little talent in hip hop. Any "group" that plays instruments live has more talent than these guys. Why would you try to defend something that truly sucks as bad as this does? Yeah it really is a strong look. My mustache definitely doesn't look queer like a pink beanie. Come on now. Nice try though. And is metal-head supposed to be an insult? Because its not. I'm proud to listen to metal. Complex, detail oriented music>this shit.

[@madisonmosley]

meh. coulda showed their own talent a little more respect.

[@darrensymes1587]

das racist lip syncing? go cry

[@sommelierofstench]

@GnomesAmok My problem is that I know good music when I hear it. Anyone could spit some lazy flow over a weak beat. I am truly unimpressed.
