Three pages for an obvious troll thread by Korey. My goodness.
Yea I don't think this has much to do with skin color. Trash music is trash music.
For example, one could actually make the argument that MJ was the most talented artist of the 21st century given the number of songs almost universal appeal all over the world. And he remained black for the most part. Hell even kanye had better music and good lyrics up until few years ago. So many countless examples.
I like that time she ripped off sir mix a lot
EVERYTHING has to do with skin color. The opportunities you're given, the way you're categorized and perceived, the fans you get, the statements you make.
The person who made that image could've put some Gaye or Hendrix lyrics up there if they wanted to make a point about modern music. Consciously or not, there's a different statement they're now making: "Rock, a now-predominantly white genre, breeds more artistically valid content than rap, a predominantly black genre."
No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey

Shit, someone tell Michelangelo to fuck off. There's a new queen in town.
I don't think the person who made that image was trying to make it a race thing. I've seen those same comparisons with Michael Jackson and (insert random white pop star) around too.
I'm a music nerd, I don't care about who is making the music, black, white, brown, gay, straight. Although I do prefer my gays when it comes to indie/pop/rock, some excellent artists out there that are out and proud.
You gotta admit white people have made some great stuff. Mozart's gotta be up there in terms of smartest and most artistic.
I think you're adding a lot to this thread by drivebying images from 9Gag and Quickmeme. Please don't stop.
You wanna talk about the most overrated rap verse in history? That's it. It was a decent verse at best. Not some world beater verse showing off her talent. But people prop thay shit up as if it was great, and this isn't against you, but it's fucking always people who don't listen to rap who acts like that verse is the greatest thing ever. Fuck that verse. Fuck that song period.Her verse on "Monster" is excellent. Beyond that, I've never really been impressed by any of her work.
yep
Yeah, white culture really is the smartest and most artistic huh
You realise that all she contributes production wise is lyrics that were invariably ghostwritten anyway right?
Are you suggesting Weird Al is the most talented?
No need to make this a rock vs rap thread, we should all just come together to shit on Nicki Manaj

I like Nicki Minaj and don't agree with any of the hate she gets but I don't honestly think anyone can say she's the best at anything she does.
I hope you're being sarcastic.
And images of lyric comparisons are dumb. Both of those are two completely different genres. You want to put up some Led Zeppelin lyrics against something from an Aphex Twin song? Come to Daddy has less lyrics than Stupid Hoe, and it's literally just repeating the main chorus, but I would take that over Led Zeppelin and Nikki any day.
I mean at the very least, she's the best female rapper of all time.

I hate this image. It's basically trying to insinuate on some dog whistle shit that white people are more intelligent and thus make more complicated music. FOH
We have a thread for parody urges.
Fucking really?
They use internal rhymes, but they all rhyme of that same "ih" sound. Comparatively, look at Yachty's verse on "Mase in '97". The damn thing is filled with internal rhymes, external rhymes, and just continually shifting the way he emphasizes rhyming sounds.Meet me at the Rucker, take the Bruckner
It's just me and Young Yucka, taking suckers
For they money and they whips, putting kitten on lips
Dividing them dividends, get the money and dip
I'm all 'bout my fetti, like Migos, we ready
She suck like spaghetti, Armani, Gianni stuff it all in Stefani
Bitch, I'm so original just like Fani
I might catch a body, I'm lyin', I'm too rich for that
I need two bricks for that, I hit two licks with that
What you call your life savings, bought two whips with that

Pretty sure this doesn't have any racial implications, just a stupid comparison between "good ol' classic music" and "vapid modern pop", the whole "i was born in the wrong generation" shtick.
