It's grunge and because it was one of those leaders of the movement, it's overrated.
For me, the Beatles are like this but on a more exponential level.

Never been a big fan of Vedder's voice, but... songs like Evenflow, Black and Yellow Ledbetter are very good songs. Compared to most music in 2020, Pearl Jam looks like a God.

I don’t get the whole mumble rap thing. My youngest plays it in my car and talks about how deep and profound the lyrics are, and I’m like “How can you even understand what he’s saying?”

That, and auto tune

Okay, I'm showing my age a bit, but what is "mumble rap"? Is it just rap where the lyrics are near impossible to understand? I remember listening to Snopp Dogg when I was 13, just because it was considered "taboo".

And yes, auto tune. Horrible. It's better to let the singer go out of tune sometimes, as it's more appealing.

It is different than old school rap in that it’s almost just randomly saying stuff as fast as possible. It doesn’t rhyme and it doesn’t have a melody, it’s just noise. I don’t get it, but then again, I’m not the demographic it targets.

My dad said the same thing about Buffalo Springfield.

Em don't like mumble rap neither. Hes right.

Reggie, Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie
Andre from Outkast, Jada, Kurupt, Nas and then me…

Who is reggie?

Songs about nothin' and mumble!
And fuck it, I'm goin' for the jugular
Shit is a circus, you clowns that are comin' up
Don't give an ounce of a motherfuck
About the ones that were here before you that made rap, let's recap
Way back, MC's that wreak havoc on tape decks
ADATs, where the G Raps and Kanes at?
We need 3 Stacks ASAP, and bring Masta Ace back

Redman

Which..... is an odd choice

Redman is hilarious. His MTV cribs was 1 of the best ever.

Ummm.

Can, um, certain posters please chill?

It’s one thing on the pols bored.

And in this thread, talk all the shit you want.

And, heads up! If you call somebody out about something and they ask you to clarify and you won’t or can’t, it only makes you look even sillier.

But now we can’t even enjoy a game thread without you douching it up there too?

Please.

Shut up lopster

The phd/lobster beef is getting good.

Surf and turf!

I ain't got no beef with PhD. I just point out his contradictions and why he is wrong about some issues.
