personally i think this is just another problem with society that can be traced back to allowing women in the workplace, and let me tell you why. without their mothers at home to love and care for them, kids do nothing but sniff glue and watch pokemon all day. this in turn makes them dumber. remember everytime you watched a tv show about a kid who's dad was a cold workoholic who was always too stressed about the stock market to throw the ol' ball around? well imagine if mom is like that too! at what point does little johnny get to sit down with mom and pop and throw a record on and let the good times roll? i'll tell you when: never. left to their own devices, kids these days do nothing more than drink what they find under the sink and then sit down and trip out with some pokemon. at that point, the tv can sell them anything. and rap music is the victim here, falling prey to temptation time and time again. it seems its just too damn easy for these fuckers to convince these kids to buy the album, so they go ahead and do it. in fact, as far as i know, all you have to do is say you're the richest rapper 3 times, spin your necklace, and it will come true..and it doesnt even have to rhyme.

also mtv is failing us all, and has to start playing music again. and by music i mean music, not the fucking black eyed fucks. we need to go back to our roots, and start remembering the guys who started this rap thing like run-dmc, krs-one, nwa, dre and snoop, 2pac and biggie, so we can forget about the guys that are killing it.

so im not sure how i let this one get by for so long. i believe we can single handedly give credit for the downfall of rap/hip-hop to fergie and the black eyed peas for the treachery titled "my humps."

They say I’m really sexy,
The boys they wanna sex me.
They always standing next to me,
Always dancing next to me,
Tryin’ a feel my hump, hump.
Lookin’ at my lump, lump.

Are these people serious? and more importantly, are the people who leave this song playing when it comes on the radio serious? anywho, we would also give credit if you answered "laffy taffy" as the cause of the downfall.

just curious, can people comment on their thoughts of why rap and hip-hop have gotten almost ridiculous?
