The Record Industry Today

Caution Don't believe the hype not everyone should rap...

This past Wednesday I was witness to probably the worst "rap" show I think Ive ever seen.. and believe me Ive seen some classically bad shows..(im looking at you nas... forgetting words to "The World is Yours" in NYC) but at least there the content of the artist was well respected and you can pretty much say even Jordan has had off days.. but the fuckery I was witness to yesterday was on a whole new level.. Ladies and Gents I present to you Simon Rexx aka Dirt Nasty and his corny crew.. First Simon Rex should not be a rapper.. Porn star maybe.. actor.. depends on who you ask.. but rapper no.. never.. well he is.. and damn it was bad.. I might be over exaggerating because it wasnt like he couldnt put words or a song together.. it was some other shit.. he was just as crude as you could be.. so much so it took away from the whole presentation.. and im not the clean type of guy I like the gritty and all the shit talking and I looooved Eminem and Smut Pedlers when they were doing that whole thing.. Like shock rap and what not. it was disrespectful to everyone but at least there were skills involved.. but the shit I watched was more like a spoof on everything I love complete disregard for what hip hop has meant to everyone I know who loves the music as much as I do.. Im telling you now if g's up hoes down werent involved I mightve walked out or left.. really.. it was that bad.. see dont get me wrong Im not a "hater" (ok usually I am but not now) i get it was a spoof.. see but thats the problem... while hip hop is being persecuted day in and day out due to lyrical content.. do we really need someone to use it as a platform to be a dick.. and not that race is everything but it plays a large roll in this.. Ludaris lost a pepsi contract for "Move Bitch" which yes may be disrespectful but is nowhere near what I heard.. and I get the whole Too Short and 2Live Crew arguments but I find that to be disgusting also but at least Too Short has skills (sorry cant co sign Luke) and 2 live Crew was original but were also banned.. This shit though is on myspace.. really.. yes thats whats needed.. Its like corny frat boy bs but ten times worse.. and I always find it funny that these artists biggest fans dont even like hip hop or rap and usually wont give most artists with skills the time of day.. but if you look like them and make fun of everything that stands for the culture they're the biggest supporters.. I dunno it just really bothered me.. the whole fuckery of it.. and Id be wrong not to mention Jim Jones who lived up to his reputation of being a waste of space time and dirt.. he came in and was on the bill to perform something.. so when they call him out he comes up does not even the whole verse of "We Fly High" and then it turns into the remix.. apparently Jim's songs arent good enough for the deejay to have so he just says eff it and starts to walk off.. when people start screaming for him to do something else he states "Freestyle that sounds too Free.. Im more about MoneyStyle.." and walks off stage.. really.. this is what I mean when I say re educate you fools.. do you know he sold madddd records.. why? how? what the fuck is wrong with people.. Whatever Im done I think I might give up.. Because there is good music out there and yet people support the bull shit..
