mtv kid

A kid who listens only to mainstream music and is unaware of any music made more than 6 months ago. Also a kid who basically only watches MTV. The only Classic Rock band they have probably heard of is The Beatles. They think all Metal is about Death and its all screaming. MTV kids usually have about 30 songs on their I-pods, basically all the new hits which they soon delete.

The Strokes

A band with interesting guitar, yet has one of the worst singers ever. His voice is so boring it kills the music, although when he belts he sounds good. But his regular singing voice is very boring. Just listen to the song "Reptilia", the guitar intro is great but then the vocals come in and kill the entire flow.
The Strokes are good but their singer sucks, they need a new one.

Stance Punks

The only REAL Punk band today, their singer has the unpolished kind of voice like The Clash's and The Ramones's singers. This band also has good guitar and a very Punk sound. It is too bad that this band is Japanese and you can't understand them. I recommend listening to the song "No Boy No Cry". It is a good song. The vocals aren't the best because it is Punk.
person1: what song is this.
person2: No Boy No Cry, by the Stance Punks, an actual punk song, unlike the gay mainstream shit that is called punk.
person1: it sounds retarded!
person2: you know what sounds retarded? the gay fake punk thats on the radio.
person1: this isn't punk
person2: just learn about The Clash and The Ramones, thats real punk.

elitist

People who think they are better than everyone else.

In terms of social groups centered are music.

Most Metalheads, Classic Rock-heads Indie fans, and Hipsters are elitists.

Metalheads tend to think that taste in music is all that matters in the quality of a person. Also they think Metal is the ultimate music. So they think that people who listen to Metal are superior to those who do not.

Classic Rock-heads are the same way as Metalheads. They are a little more open minded but still elitists.

Indie fans think that unknown music is superior. They are not as strong about their musical taste as metalheads, but they still believe they are better than those who listen to bands everyone knows.

Hipsters tend to think those who don't listen to whats in are strange and different and therefore insuperior to them.

In terms of social groups not centered around music.

Jocks, and Preps are elitists.

Most Jocks believe anyone who sucks at sports and gets good grades are insuperior to them.

Some preps believe anyone who doesn't have a sense of fashion or isn't like them or everyone else is insuperior.

modern rap

The history of rap

In the times of slavery slaves would sing call and response songs in the slave pens which turned into Blues, Jazz Swing, and R&B such as Louis Armstrong and Ray Charles. Louis Armstrong made Jazz more of a solo kind of style instead of in orchestras. The blues music was from bad happenings in their lives and from the slavery. Jazz was a style with a rythm that moved more and swing was more crazy and out of control. Scat singing was a wordless singing style which was for rythm. In the ghetto after the slavery but during the descrimination people only had their voices and objects around them for making music. Rap was a spoken type of music influenced by scat singing. Rap was poetry syncronized with an instrument with a quick, short sound to give it sync with the syllables of words. In the ghetto they probably used trashcans. In the 70's people had used the technique of "scratching" with records. In the 80's came Run-D.M.C. who used scratching, drums, and used guitarists in some songs came and pretty much created rap for what it was by definition: poetry in motion, and poetry has rhyme scheme or meter but rap follows both of those. In the 90's there were rappers like Tupac and Notorious B.I.G. who would rap about the streets. These rappers used beatboxes, and beatboxes still had the quick, short beat that fit rap.

Modern Rap

At the turn of the millenium, after Tupac and Notorious B.I.G.'s deaths. Rappers were following the theme that they set, the problem with these rappers were: they acted too egotistic and rap became all about money and image. And to look richer more rappers used synthesizers in their music. Synthesizers, have a more constant beat, not the quick short one that fits rap. Also the poetry was dropping too, and rap is "poetry in motion" so what is called rap these days isn't even rap.

My opinion on modern rap and modern rappers

Modern rap sucks ass! Half the modern rappers aren't from the streets and to make it look like they are, they have to rap about the streets which they know nothing about. Modern rappers also rap about image. A modern rap song sounds like "everybody likes me, look at my shoes" and shit like that. The thing is nobody likes them. There aren't as many rap fans as there used to be, even the wiggers don't listen much to modern rap. Some rapper/rap group better come along with poetic meter and rhyme and the good sync of drums with syllables. And not sound like a repetetive dipshit(s) that only know(s) two words.
modern rap fan: did you hear the new chamillionare song?
intelligent person: I prefer to listen to good rap like Run-D.M.C., not dumbasses like chamillionare who mispronounce words to try and make them rhyme because they don't know how to rhyme.
