lol - that's all you've got? What is this, pre-school?

It seems like it, given some of your arguments.

Thanks for the night, sweetheart. The pain will go away in a day or so. The shame lasts a little longer.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

I'm sure your family is proud of you.

Actually, they're simply devastated that I didn't become a rapper.

Nice to see you admitting that you took it in the shorts.

Sure, Cat Stevens or Usama Bin Confused or whatever the hell he calls himself may have been a better "artist" than, say, Ice T, but Ice T would smoke a *****. Advantage: Rap.

I understand you're a little light headed from taking it so hard, but you'll come around. Eventually you'll find acceptance. Chin up, sister.

You're rubber and he's glue

You're rubber and he's glue

Something like that.

As I noted, one could, for example, objectively grade painters on their ability to draw humans, animals, houses, etc.... that people can actually recognize as being those objects. Others could argue as to the value of that objective standard, but that won't magically make the standard subjective. Hell, if one wanted to, one could use "total number of instruments required to play that song" as an objective standard for determining the quality of music. I certainly wouldn't do that, but my thinking that such a standard would be stupid doesn't make it inherently invalid.

Tip: in art these are absolutely useless measures, which is why you don't see people using them. The size of a canvas, for example, has no real bearing on the painting's quality. Art's quality is simply not measured objectively. Read an art book lately? Ever?

I thought you were playing hoops to Marvin Gaye, old timer.

Tip: Your opinion on what's useless means less than nothing to me in context (subjective, after all), and does nothing to change the point of the discussion. You were wrong, and I'm sure you know it.

I do find it amusing that you went with something that wasn't even painted (canvas) as opposed to a measure of skill (ability to paint humans).

Nah, that's more useful for gettin' busy.

From about 1990 to 1994 I used to mix De La Soul whenever they hit the local college scene. That was my 1st experience with true hip hop and they were great. I also did about a half dozen Run shows, but never found him appealing until he became Reverend Run. His material then had true messages with meaning. My most memorable hip hop/rap show was Public Enemy at Burlington Auditorium in VT. At mid point in their show they started going off about white oppression and slavery. I was on a three foot high riser in the middle of the house surrounded by a 95% black crowd of about 2000 and I didn't have so much as a tan. My sweat was dripping on the console, but there wasn't even a glance tossed in my direction. They were just making a statement through their music and not trying to incite or stir up trouble. That gave me a new outlook on the genre until I did Lil' Kim at the Fleet Center. The crowd was predominantly young teenage girls. They were all singing along with Kim's songs, but the lyrics were hard to understand in the echoing arena so I put on some headphones and had a listen. I was hit by a wave of filth that would put Dice Clay to shame and all of those young girls were singing right along. It still freaks me out to remember it.

Another time there was this hip hop band that was totally incredible. They were a man and a women in front. Behind them was a DJ and a full band. The talent and tightness was top notch, but I can't remember who they were. Somebody please help with suggestions.

Here's a funny story. Our company was doing a Run show at Tufts. I was ill and stayed home. During the show a ring flew off of Run's finger into the crowd. They stopped the show and his entourage of tough guys came on stage and demanded the ring be returned. They also did the same thing at the show's end claiming that the ring was worth thousands of dollars. They never got it back and our guys at the show never mentioned it to me. A week later I'm setting up a show and suddenly this massive gold ring studded with gaudy diamonds falls out of an amp rack. It was like hitting the lottery, but I couldn't imagine where it came from. The next day I found out about the Run show. For sh!ts and giggles I had the ring appraised. The jeweler pointed out the black spots in all of the diamonds and the cheap setting. He wouldn't even make an offer calling it complete junk.

Damn, that was a great post! Awesome stories.

I used to think De La Soul was great and really unique. I saw them around 1992 and loved it. Then I saw them around 1995 and thought they stunk. They seemed to get rid of the funk and move to just straight rap lyrics over boring beats. Oh well.

I think of Run DMC as the Moses of the rap world.

Seriously, this is really getting kinda weird. Would it literally kill you to not get the last word? You gave up with even the pretense of having a point to argue like 5 posts ago. The playground insults are super cool though
