        Is that disco club in the show supposed to be Paradise Garage? That place looked awesome! - Krusty Aug 18, 17:56 1

        as the kids say, *smh*. do you really think that without, say, chic and nile rodgers that there is rap and hip hop???...nm - x Aug 18, 17:33 4
        
        I don't question the progression. Hip hop relied on the past to create new music. - Krusty Aug 18, 17:41 3
        
        that's fair enough. but someday, you should maybe give those late 70's Chic records another listen....Nm - x Aug 18, 17:50 2
        
        I'll check them out. I know the popular stuff but not that much else. -- nm - Krusty Aug 18, 18:11

        *smh* Those "white kids" have more talent than most artists. They play multiple instruments and rhyme as well as anyone that's ever - Krusty Aug 18, 17:09 4
        
        I'm mostly just being contrary for fun. - TWuG Aug 18, 17:12 3
        
        You realize they do more than rap. They all play instruments. They play punk, hardcore, mellow instrumentals and rock. Sabotage isn't a rap song. - Krusty Aug 18, 17:16 2
        
        Like I said, the Beasties didn't improve Trek, so.... - TWuG Aug 18, 17:23
        
        But I get not liking hip hop. I don't fault people for that. - Krusty Aug 18, 17:17
        
        honestly, it's fair if you don't like rap--that's cool. as to the white kids thing.... - x Aug 18, 17:03
