No kids listen to rock music anymore....School of Rock is basically like joining choir. Divergent nerd stuff. Vice-versa every rapper has some shitty verse on a manufactured pop artists record. So I think we're done with the gatekeeping around any rappers being "legit" or "street"...

My quip on the old forum was disparaging them as the black Bloodhound Gang. I think that still stands. I think Steve also had a funny story about them being uncouth during a shared taxi ride.

All T no shade but I'd often wonder how many whips in Englewood were bumpin' Paul's Boutique compared to, like, Naperville. But that's it, isn't it? It's easier for suburban kids to realistically relate to some juvenile jock types than actual gangsters. I think they're generally are a joke band wit...

They were indeed a pleasure to smoke and gave rise to ...

Huh, thought you guys were talking about the English IDM/electronic concern LFO (as in, low frequency oscillator), the one on Warp. Was gonna say, memory's hazy but . . . I don't remember them being offensive. But nope ! Turns out there was another group by this name, an American one. I'd never hea...

I'm really wondering what kind of dinner table conversation the khaki tiki torch mob is having about this. Kind of a "superhero can't pick a button meme" moment. The fucked up part is some are “Pro Israel” groups of fucking Gentile Nazis… fighting for a right wing Jewish government. I ass...

I think there's fiberglass in the filters Don't know if things are different there but here it's been a long-standing urban myth that cig filters contain fibreglass.
