how do you work that out???? as it is still being produced....

As Edd said, it's all changed from gangsta rap with the advent of Eminem, 50 Cent, Snoops current style, D12 etc etc.

It is an acceptable genre now that is played on the air day in day out. None of that was the case before Dre went solo.

It is still being produced (by others) and 95% is complete and total poppy dross.

Detox FTL. Zane Lowe played a sample from his newest track on R1 the other night. I wasn't sold. It may be a grower though.

Eminems new album, Recovery is out 22/6/10. Worth a download probably.

Luda also has a new one out. I may acquire that shortly. :thumb:

rap was truly shyte when it started..... the first big hit rap record was by blondie........

gangsta rap started out being all we're all poor and hard done by & its a battle to survive etc....

then they were all we used to be poor but now we're really rich but it was hard......

so now they must be struggling to find stuff to complain about

Gangsta rap is as good as dead though. These days it's all about d!ckheads ballin' in their Lambos or driving Gulwings with the doors up. lol

I guess Eminem still moans a fair bit, about publicity/his mother and what it USED to be like being broke. Now you aint so stop bitchin. lol

Although his darker stuff is his best IMO. Meh.

I wanna watch CB4 now. lol

Giving up smoking wasn't too difficult tbh. The difficult bit is not hanging round all my friends that smoke all the time. But as my missus put it to me, they aren't my friends if they are not willing to help and support me. Tbf most of them have respected the fact that I don't smoke anymore.

Cheers for all the nice messages, it now means that I'll be able to attend PVS without dissapearing off for a cheeky splif

Good job you are giving up lol

I gave up years ago and really don't miss it and last December I gave up the ciggies after 17 years and I don't miss them either :)


















Lies sometimes I still want a ciggarette, but i'm not having one!!

I tried giving up tobacco loads of times, no will power lol

gave up with no help so i guess I must have really wanted to stop, but I need to wait a year before I can change my life insurance to non smoker status and my premium will about half I've been told :)
