I don’t listen to much rap at all but I have a place in my collection for this, because I really like his style:

i couldn’t take my time to listen to it cause i’m listening to some good older hardcore/metalcore/screamo/whatever u want to call it right now.

but i clicked to see who it is and im gonna agree that it sucks. i listen to a lot of new rap when i just want to laugh about how stupid they are. but i still to manage to find like 5 cds a year of new rap that i like.

You think that’s bad?

I watched this live when I went down to the Garden for opening night:

This guy sucks, IMO. The chorus of ‘go new york go new york’ sounds like shit. I’m a musician. It hurts my ears.

Shut up Joey before I punch you in the tooth. I’ve been listening to country music ever since I was little. My uncle and grandparents and that whole side of my family would listen to it a lot and i’d hang out with them a lot and it just caught on from there. :lol
