[@bloodyshrine1369]

The rarity of a rap tune that’s about discontentment rather than just bragging. Refreshing.

[@massivethomas9661]

Bloody Shrine It’s really not rare at all tho tbh. What with the influx of emo rap and rappers such as Tyler the creator, Juice Wrld, Earl Sweatshirt, and Mac Miller. Granted these guys each brag at times, their bars regarding their discontentment with who they are feel real and should not be overlooked

[@bloodyshrine1369]

I don’t see why those supposed “artists” shouldn’t be overlooked. That irritating, excessively auto tuned sound should be abolished. The promotion of that supposed music just encourages more talentless crap.

[@wrongpingpong]

As far as I know, Tyler, Earl, and Mac Miller don't use a autotune. You sound like an oldie who just assumes every new school rapper is the same. Very ignorant and narrow-minded.

[@bloodyshrine1369]

Well I guess I’m an oldie, along with the multitudes who have good taste. It’s just that anytime I listen to any new rapper, they seem to be using the same style, and the auto tune technique is excessively over used. So i don’t see why you expect me to have a good attitude about the current music scene, when way too many are playing follow the leader.

[@bloodyshrine1369]

Oh yeah, I had a listen to those “artists” and they are nothing that makes you want to come back and listen again. Mac Miller sounds like a bragging self absorbed douchebag, juice world is just flat out irritating and Tyler The Creator... I’ve heard too many use that same style of rap delivery. The other thing that bugs me about these new hip hop tunes is, instrumentally they suck. Good rap music should have a good rhythm section in the mix, that makes your head bop, and that is totally lacking in a lot of new songs. Sure there are probably a lot of trendies who make these trend chasers go viral on KZbin, but that doesn’t make them anything fantastic.

@@nope110 I honestly don't really know how to add on to my original statement. The initial comment is most of what I have to say. Metalheads do like some rap songs, you can't force yourself to not like every song from a genre is what I mean. There are some exceptions, but metalheads don't regularly listen to rap so that's why they don't say they are rap fans or whatever.

[@DrStraw]

@@xxxod When I was a metalhead when i was young I felt that pressure, like you can't like that disco music because you are tough you listen to metal you have to keep it that way. Then I learned that most of my idols listen to rap and pop because they are musicians and they appreciate every kind of music. So I became open minded and find out rap is awesome some pop songs are awesome being a metalhead narrows you down.

They destroyed the rap music genre somewhere between 2005-2011 as far as I can remember.

lyrics: I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat And a six four Impala I wish I was like six-foot-nine So I can get with Leoshi 'Cause she don't know me but yo she's really fine You know I see her all the time everywhere I go And even in my dreams I can scheme a way to make her mine 'Cause I know she's livin phat Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball So how am I gonna compete with that? 'Cause when it comes to playing basketball I'm always last to be picked And in some cases never picked at all So I just lean up on the wall Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls Who came to watch their men ball Dag y'all! I never understood, black Why the jocks get the fly girls and me I get the hood rats I tell em "scat, skittle, scabobble" Got hit with a bottle And I been in the hospital for talkin' that mess I confess it's a shame when you living in a city That's the size of a box and nobody knows yo' name Glad I came to my senses Like quick-quick got sick-sick to my stomach Overcommeth by the thoughts of me and her together Right? So when I asked her out she said I wasn't her type I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat And a six four Impala I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat And a six four Impala I wish I had a brand-new car So far, I got this hatchback And everywhere I go, yo, I gets laughed at And when I'm in my car I'm laid back I got an 8-track and a spare tire in the backseat, but that's flat And do you really wanna know what's really whack? See I can't even get a date, so, what do you think of that? I heard that prom night is a bomb night With the hood rats you can hold tight But really though, I'm a Figaro When I'm in my car I can't even get a hello Well, so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday Well, then I'mma have to get in my car and go You know I take the 110 until the 105 Get off at Crenshaw, tell my homies "look alive" 'Cause it's hard to survive when your living In a concrete jungle and these girls keep passing me by She looks fly, she looks fly Makes me say "my, my, my" I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat And a six four Impala I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat And a six four Impala I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller I wish I was a little bit taller I wish I was a baller Hey, I wish I had my way 'Cause everyday would be a Friday And you could even speed on the highway I would play ghetto games Name my kids ghetto names Little Mookie, Big Al, Lorraine Yo you know that's on the real So if you're down on your luck Then you should know just how I feel 'cause if you don't want me around See I go simple, I go easy, I go Greyhound Hey, you, what's that sound?
