  7. Re:Smoke isn't safe. on Safe Cigarettes? · · Score: 1

    I'm 100% for property rights. If you own a bar or restaurant and don't want people smoking in it, impose a ban on smoking in your property. It annoys the fuck out of me when cities or states impose blanket bans on public smoking.

    You can't smoke in a bar in some towns. WHAT? In order to be in a bar you have to be a legal adult. It's not like smoking in bars is hurting children.

    Non-smokers IMO do have a right to breate smoke free air. As a result, they have a right to not patronize businesses that allow customers to smoke in them. At the same time, a property owner has the right to decide for him or herself if smoking will be permitted on his or her property.

    I used to think that all rap music was "crap", *until* I heard KRS-ONE.

    A few years before I started listening to KRS-ONE I heard Kool Moe Dee, he's the one who got me interested in rap music.

    Listen to "Return of the Boom Bap".

    Why is Too Short on that list?

    Too Short is the person most responsible for the introduction of "Bitch" to the rap lexicon.

    From the regular "Bitch" that gets springled throughout the lyrics of various rappers' songs to the "Beeeeyatch" of Snoop Dogg's music, Too Short is the source.

    He'd open up his concerts with a 30 second long "BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYATCH!"

    Moreover, he's been in the game for about 20 years and can still sell records.

    I also don't understand how you could find him funny on ATHF, but you don't find humor in any of his songs?!

    Because his other songs are far too annoying to be funny.

    Yeah, that's great stuff.

    Just because something is vastly different from the status quo, it automatically doesn't count?

    I'm not saying that at all. All of the stars in the rap game became such because they were different than everyone else.

    It's interesting how everyone you compared him with, except for possibly Combs, isn't black. Apparently MC Chris being white is a strike against him? I'm not going to call you a racist, but you're a racist.

    That's just funny. I'm not even going to dignify that with a response.

    His lyrics are funny as hell without ever being lame.

    The TUSSIN! The TUSSIN!

    That shit is lame.

    Shame on him for not making all his lyrics revolve around inner city tragedy and/or women.

    If you listened to more than your local "urban" radio station, you'd see that most rappers rap about things other than that.

    You can have your 50-cent. I'll stick with Cough Medicine Curmudgeon, thanks.

    While 50 is a decent rapper, he hasn't been around long enough. True fans of the genre recognize people who've been in the game for 20 years or so and can STILL sell records.

    In short, give a listen to Rakim, Guru, Too Short, Scarface, LL Cool J, Ice T, Ice Cube or KRS-ONE before you even try to judge the quality of rap music. Fads come and go, you can't assume that one fad applies to all of hip hop. For example, 2 Live Crew came and went, House of Pain came and went, Vanilla Ice came and went, Rico Suave came and went.

    Sorry, never heard of him. His site requires Flash, too, so I'm even less likely now.

    Here's a quick description.

    MC Chris is a combination of Puff Daddy, Vanilla Ice, Snow, Eminem and William Hung.

    But just the worst parts of them.

    He's truly awful. His beats are terrible, his rhyming is sloppy. He's not a good lyricist.

    He is to Rap music what Pat Boone was to 50's Rock and Roll. Mc Chris makes Rap music for people who don't like Rap music.

    His role of Mc Pee Pants on Aquateen Hunger Force was pretty funny. In fact, it was very funny. Do yourself a favor, unless you enjoy horrible music. Stay away from Mc Chris.
