As far as I'm concerned Rap and Mainstream don't go together. All the good stuff was from the early to mid 90's, since then it's garbage. All this mainstream crap, RnB, rap or w/e you wanna call it its all crap. The lyrical content is horrible, its repeating a chorus for 4 mins to a sample of someone else's song.
Music is an art form that involves sounds and silence. Music may be used for artistic or aesthetic, communicative, entertainment, or ceremonial purposes. The definition of what constitutes music varies according to culture and social context.
Is sampling wrong with permission? No. I agree done wrong it's uncreative and lazy. Mainly I hear bias from you though and that does nothing but an environment for culturual intolerance.
So, my main question is this. Is it right to take a sample from someone else's song, even with their permission, and rely on it to be the foundation of a song? That almost takes all effort out of music at the fact you already have the music there, and then you can just throw some lyrics down over it. This especiall bother me when an artist won't even attempt to remix a background track to sound modded or different. Ihope someone agrees with me on this point, because it takes work out of music.
I understand I did put down certain forms of art, but there is a limit to what we should call art. Almost all mainstream does nothing new but repeat the same lyric. Now, this could be said for songs that use a repeating guitar riff, but it get to the point that rap artist won't even sample their own clips of music. That means that it's one entire song of Daft Punk sample with what seems to be almost no thought put into the lyrical value of the song in question.
Here is the problem with a post with Tofu's here, first of all he is entitled to his opinion but the the thing about music is that it is relative. Rap killing is american music scene is nonsense. Music is art, if you don't get a certain genre fine, but don't put down other people's ideas and musical creations.
Those genres are popular, but I just hate a lot of popular music. I'm just angry with how much lower the industry is sinking overall, not that it wasn't already. I'm more of a spud, or a cadet.
kk, I might have been wrong then, since America is pretty far away from here, so I'm not quiet sure about the music over there.
Rap is probaby not so well-known there, but how about RnB?
Tbh, they show pretty much only RnB and some rap on tv here and all those are from USA. So yeah, I assumed those were the genres which are the most popular in USA.
