I know alot of you old farts ( I'm joking by the way ) don't like rap music or hip hop..
And I'm sure this isn't what you meant when you were talking about today's music... But this has been my perception of my choice of music.
I was around 11 or 12 when Run DMC first came out and my mom was the one who actually got me into rap music .
Throughout the years in my teens, I remember Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre coming out with "Nothin but a G thang"
Then the west coast gangsta rap blew up, and let me say, I was hooked like an addiction .... I wanted to move to Cali ( years later I did) and ride around in a Lowrider. ( been there done that, and too much of a headache to deal with)
And then, Southern Rap came around and then Kanye West happened...
And of course Lil Wayne, and Nikki Minaj.
People went from baggy pants to skin tight jeans. Music has turned to garbage. All I listen to anymore is old school rap, funk, r&b, and classic rock.
