God damn rappers
I have to say, all that rap crap and “urban” music/culture is so stupid. I was watching that “Don’t you wish your girlfriend was hot like me” music video, and there’s half naked girls jumping around everywhere. Sure they’re nice to look at but that kind of degradation of women should be kept in places like porno and mens magazines. Not the mainstream media.
Especially the things that they sing about, some of it is explicit and this music is accepted by the majority of society. The kids don’t even know what they are singing about and the parents don’t even care. You see little kids walking round with their parent’s wearing all the “homie-g” stuff, and its like WTF?! Take a look at your kids for Christ’s sake!
I have recently watched the movie Idiocracy. Although the movie is kind of a pile of crap, it is about two human army experiments that travel 500 years into the future to discover that the world has become overrun by stupidity, because of anti-intellectualism and dysgenics.
So thinking about that, I swear that this music will turn the worlds population into bumbling idiots that are OK with the degradation of women, shooting people for wearing different colours, and using the english language like a fucking retard!
Now you take a look at metal for instance, and look at the messages that are delivered through it. Although it is a medium that is probably too hardcore to be accepted by the mainstream, the messages definitely should. People have called metal “suicide music” or think that it will give homicidal tendancies, when really, when I hear urban music I want to kill people.
Lamb of God for instance, one of their songs (Ashes Of The Wake) has a voiceover of an American soldier in Iraq saying how
“I honestly feel we’re committing genocide over here,
I don’t believe in killing civilians, and I’m not going to kill civilians for the United States Marine Corp.”
Then you have Hatebreed who’s song Another Day, Another Vendetta proclaims the reason for the angryness of their songs;
Well the answer is plain to see
Just look around at this world that we’re living in.
It’s die or let die
All I see is killing
Another day, another vendetta
There is so much suffering
Another day, another vendetta
And then the amount of homeless in the country…
I see the homeless standing out on the streets
On every corner, they’re asking for money
I try to help them whenever I can but sometimes
I can’t afford to help myself.
…while the leaders spend all their money on foreign wars instead of domestic issues:
I see diseases and modern plagues of our time
The greed of our leaders have made them blind
To our problems, they spend millions over seas
While people right here are fighting wars everyday
In the same vein, there is of course, perhaps the most conspiracal band around, System Of A Down, one song of which, BOOM! proclaims again, how so much money is being spent on war, when it could be better spent on saving people that need saving.
Manufacturing consent,
Is the name of the game,
The bottom line is money,
Nobody gives a fuck.
4000 hungry children leave us per hour,
From starvation,
While billions are spent on bombs,
Creating death showers.
But System of a Down have many, many conspiratist songs, althrough the are much more poetic and somewhat cryptic than other bands.
Seriously, this stuff is what humanity needs to listen to, to think for themselves, not listen to this drivel delivered through the mainstream music genre’s.
Makes you think that there is something bigger going on here – like the goverments are trying to making us stupid by condoling this absolute rubbish.
