Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 Oh man, I don't know what to say. I'm listening to the Grand Champion right now and it's pretty damn funny. His lyrics are just soooo terrible. "The D to the M to the X, y'all niggas havin sex with the same sex." HA! I know most songs with lyrics are generally considered bad by somebody, but this shit is universal. Who else finds this hilarious? I won't even get into how bad of an actor he is in the video (YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!) or the latest heartfelt rap ballad with "AYO KATO", complete with every cliched idea possible, both in the video and the actual song. I actually do a pretty good DMX impression myself, which only reveals how ridiculous this crap is. Oh Lord is this shit so bad it's brilliant. Anyone else feel the same way I do? If you don't know much about Dark Man X (it just doesn't stop), or rap in general, what other bands/artists do you find so bad they're hilarious? Actually, let's try to make this more about EARL SIMMONS, as he hasn't had much discussion devoted to him at TSM... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ya, that's what I'm saying, DMX doing CB4 level lyrics in all seriousness, that's funny. Straight Outta Locash is damn funny though, you oughta give it a download. Here's the complete lyrics (from memory, so close enough): Straight outta locash Crazy motherfucker named Gusto I fucked your wife cuz the bitch is a big ho I fucked your sister, I fucked your cat I would fuck your mom but the bitch is too fat When I'm in your neighborhood you better dig a moat cuz I'm coming to slit your motherfucking throat blood is drippin, I'm not slippin' bitches panties is what I'm rippin rolling faster than a motherfucking dirt bike I never met a piece of pussy that I didn't like like to eat it, like to suck it take a shit in a bucket... Straight Outta Locash!! Straight outta Locash a crazy motherfucker named Dead Mike So get ready cause you're goin for a long hike off a cliff, I'm drivin you over Now ya dead with ya fo' leaf clover Float like a cannonball, sting like a shark I'm the nigga waitin for you in the dark Waitin to rob you, waitin to beat you A bullet in ya head is how I greet you A villain with a hat, and it's like that I tied yo' moms to a motherfuckin train track Flat on her back, I give her some crack It's ten o'clock - DO YOU KNOW WHERE YO MOMS IS AT?

BUTT 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 "This week, DMX and his wife Tashera Simmons were in court facing a five count indictment on weapons charges and child endangerment stemming from a 1999 search of their home. Attorneys for DMX and his wife claim that the search of his home was illegal and did not have the proper authority to enter the house. Judge Donald Venezia adjourned the hearing until May 15 because a key prosecution witness was unavailable for testimony. The charges stem from a 1999 incident when police were investigating the shooting of DMX's manager Ray Copeland. At the crime scene, police found a purse containing Tashera's ID so they went to the house. According to the NY Daily News, DMX's mother-in-law Marcia Tate answered the door and told police that DMX was smoking crack, acting crazy and flashed a gun in the days leading up to the shooting. When officers searched the house, they found a loaded 9mm handgun, six used glass cocaine-smoking pipes and a large amount of ammunition. Upon searching further, police found 14 pit bulls, marijuana and rotting garbage in a second floor bathroom. The rapper's children a 15-year-old son and a 6-year-old daughter were also present during DMX's alleged drug binge. The rapper and his wife were arrested and indicted in August 1999.

I doubt Mase is coming back anytime soon with a gospel rap album. Most part Rappers always say they're going to retire: Too Short (has a new album coming out btw), Master P, Ja Rule, Rakim, and Jay-Z.

Cartman 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2003 Generalizations. Just because I like some "Popular" bands doesn't mean I don't like other bands as well. Most mainstream music is garbage, hence why I never listen to the radio. I just buy tons of CD's and listen to the whole things and I find that many songs that are on the radio are usually the worst ones on the album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
