nope not in the least bit, i play guitar, i'm in a blues band where we play mostly blues and some rock and roll
I have 0 respect for rap music and the arrogent lifesyle rappers lead, case and point Kanye West saying he is the "voice of this generation", if he is the one speaking for me, kill me now.
Their music takes little talent and anyone can make beats on their computer and ryhming lyrics to match, other forms of music have lyrics, a beat, rythm guitar, lead guitar, bassline, keyboards, etc etc
so no i am far from jealous, it's just a shame that people grow up these days with little knowledge of real quality music, instead they buy into this catchy garbage.
what are people going to sing to their kids at night, definatly not a kanye or lil wayne song or whoever, this music isn't timeless, its a fad
I Agree with everthing you say. the one thing i mostly hate is the dam kids having that music up so loud in their car that i can hear it 1/2 from inside of my house. Some of these people are not role modles at all. they degrade women, disrespect others and wast their money on, oh how do they say it, "bling".
