I would rather listen to Imagine Dragons or even maroon 5 then the crap rap songs being put by Lil Wayne, imSU and others.

That's like saying you'd rather eat horse shit than dog shit.

So you're just gonna dismiss an entire genre based on popular songs you heard. You do know how ignorant you sound, right? I guess all heavy metal is about satan right?

Yes. That's why metal is good.

 

[Silky]

Maybe Aesop Rock would work for OP

Cannibus took a huge L though

Canibus is pretty much a walking L....but his past means well.

When I heard him the first time on Beasts from the East......my gawd

 

[Tom Penny]

I like the beats to rap music but the language is too much for me. Is it really that hard to express yourself without using four letter words? Maybe try opening a dictionary sometime.

Listen to better shit

My wrist deserve a shout-out, I'm like "What up, wrist?"
My stove deserve a shout-out, I'm like "What up, stove?"

 

[Zoned]

There's that word. Crap rap.

You're done.

But it's difficult to find songs with good beats without these artists. Pit bull has some iconic beats as well.

it's actually never been easier to find new music, if you were willing to spend a few minutes with "google" and a pair of "headphones"

or if you bothered to read any number of great artists mentioned in this thread

college drop out
isiah rashad
chance the rapper
kendrick
etc

Please. go listen to Piñata and Run the Jewels. Hell Madlib/Quasimoto is a good start for you if you're legitimately interested in looking for music.

we've confirmed he doesn't.

this thread is about how "crap rap" intimidates OP, not about how he wants to appreciate more music.

Is it difficult? You can literally go on Spotify and start up billions of songs with their own beats right now.

It's not hard. Instead of asking for suggestions you made a thread to bitch and moan.

Canibus is pretty much a walking L....but his past means well.

When I heard him the first time on Beasts from the East......my gad

Don't know or listened to much of Canibus but I hear him get brought up here and there as a great artist, never heard about "taking an L" what's that about?

 

[agrajag]

you should listen to Illogic, OP. He doesn't curse, and his lyrics are like a damn novel

Took out a notebook during a recent rap battle and had to read off of it.

What exactly is the joke? Pit bull has done great music tracks. Although as a rapper he suck.

 

[TheKaeptain]

He lost at life.

You don't get to complain about superficial music if you genuinely like Pitbull.

 

[RP912]

He had a rap battle with a battle rapper name dizaster. Let's just say he didn't come prepared and decided to recite what he was going to do to dizaster :/

Renaissance of rap will come when DJ Clue releases the professional pt 4.

 

[agrajag]

well, rappers don't tend to do well in battle rap in general, and he probably didn't took it seriously enough, underestimated Dizaster and didn't do any research on him and wrote some corny, general lines about him

 

[daviyoung]

What exactly is the joke? Pit bull has done great music tracks. Although as a tapper he suck.

the joke is that good music is hard to find

also, Pitbull can be the joke if you want

you should concentrate on who is producing your music rather than the MC if all you're interested in are the beats

 

[agrajag]

OP, you think Pit Bull is good music, so I have no hope for you. I don't think I will be able to find you music that sounds like Pit Bull crap but with good lyrics.

 

[jon bones]

Here OP listen to this:

he'd rather listen to imagine dragons than this -_-

suddenly the problem comes into focus...

 

[RP912]

This is canibus we talking about. He battled LL cool J and won (I don't care what the naysayers say). For him to choke up like that is kind of sad considering the fact that this dude had rappers scared to cypher with him on the radio.

 

[Silky]

Pitbull hasn't been good since Drive Slow. He's in that weird veil of obscurity like Nelly

 

[Zoned]

Don't know but I don't like songs in the top hip hop playlists on Spotify. Need to go deeper I guess.

yeh you do, look at who's producing the songs you like and go from there

 

[Rembrandt]

I kind of get the feeling this goes beyond just his general feelings on radio, though.

Well exclude Mac Miller, OP. Check out Paranoia on Acid Rap at least.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Pitball is a cornball.

[UltraGunner]

If it's content matter that bothers you, may I suggest Killer Mike/Run the Jewels, Dead Prez, or Pharoahe Monch that use music for more political reasons and for highlighting corruption in society.

 

[Dereck]

Taking the recommendations given in this thread would be a start.

soundcloud, bandcamp, sub genres, datpiff.

dont you ever look at the related artists suggestions?

Kendrick might be an exception, but a large majority produce shit like what I mentioned. That's why I like indie and pop. Quality is much better.

So you've listened to the large majority of rap?

 

[Bulbo Urethral Baggins]

I don't get it. He complains about rap then throws out pit bull references to prove that rap is awesome without cursing.
He's his own worst enemy
