I used to love rock.

I have every Faith No More album....We Care Alot - to - Who Cares alot?

Most Pearl Jam albums....A couple Live albums, Stone Temple Pilots - 11

I was just brought up on HipHop...That's why I like it more.

Ah, I see. I used to like rap when I was in middle school. It didn't last long though.

Yeah, everyone seems to go through that phase. Only thing is you don't penetrate the surface of hiphop, to get to the real artists. Just the commercial artists.

I guess that's why everyone seems to look down on me for listening to it.

So expose them to the real thing. Upload some good songs here.

I really don't understand why that is, you know. I don't listen to rap music at all, but damned if I'm going to say that my musical preference is "better" than yours.

I'd say the closest thing to rap that I've listened to is the Judgment Night soundtrack. Man, I drank so much beer to that CD in university...heh heh.

I've got that CD....I forgot all about it. Looks like I've got some old times to catch up on when I get home today!

[Zoner]

Onyx and Biohazard fawkin' ROCK on that album...the Faith No More/Boo-Ya Tribe tune is awesome too.

Hell, it's ALL good. Helmet/House of Pain, Slayer/Ice T...good times.

LOL.....I have some of the tracks from that CD.

But yeah, people do look down on me, ALL the time. At one point I was actually embarressed to go down to the local CD store and buy rap cds.

I don't care anymore. Fuck anyone that seriously calls me a wigger.

If you WERE truly interested, you should check out the artists in my sigs.

You can check out these links...They have a wee bit of info on the subject, they still don't have all the kind of stuff I listen to, just some of the more popular artists of the sub-genres:

'Alternative' Rap (Note - It's called alternative when it pretty much IS real hiphop):
