I'm also not a big fan of rap, mostly because of the violent content. I like rap artists with a positive message, but I just can't get into the hardcore stuff. I don't want my money to support that lifestyle. [Edited 1/19/07 9:34am] I feel ya but there's more degrading of women than anything.I bought Dj quik's rythm- a-lism which is supposed to be his upbeat funky party album but it's bitch this, ho that, i don;t loved a whore on almost every song. I can;t stand that shit anymore. When i was 15 i loved gangsta rap; now i feel totally different. There's not much positive rap though even by the so called conciece rappers who preach homophobia and to a certain extent dogma. There's alot of great hip hop though which is very creative and predominatly positive. Listen to Rip the jacker by Canibus; it contains some of the best writing ever in the history of mankind; i kid you not. | |

Accident or suicide can be debated all day, but in the end he did hurt alot of people. good point not really. Can;t compare that to beating your spouse, pedophilia or rape. | |

I have every kelly album; they're mostly excellent, some juvenile song though; 'i like the crotch on you', WTF  I go with R. Kelly up until "The R" he dropped back in 1999. I haven't bought anything of his since then. I can't bear that "Trapped in the Closet" stuff. It makes me wanna hurl! | |
