Just caught an interview with rapper 50 Cent, as he is known to his fans (his real name is Miles Scaife-Dingethorpe).
A fascinating young man, though unfortunately almost too stupid to speak.
"The music business is really the business of selling music," he argued, "so I do what I do."
Music? The oaf wouldn't know the difference between a tune, meaningful lyrics, and a bash in the crock with a salami. I would like to dig up Ludwig van, or one of those boys, and introduce them. "This is how we do music now, Ludo. You spent a year studying with Haydn in Vienna; this guy spent two years in jail for armed robbery and dealing crack. Not only can he not read music, he cannot read at all; indeed, he can barely even speak. And yet he thrives."
"Vas?"
Language warning: he doesn't know any language. While he has mastered basic phrases and threats, his speech is of little communicative significance and incoherent under most circumstances.
...
He made more than 50 million last year. Well, he wouldn't be doing so well if I were in charge. I would have him taken outside and shot.
It's not just 50 cent, by the way. It's all rappers. They all suck. None of their songs are about anything original or meaningful, and this whole country is brainwashed by the tunes that professionals create because they actually trigger some sort of thing in your brain that makes you like the song. Ew ew ew.
Listen to something different. Listen to music.
He has attitude, i.e., a grumpy face. The crucifixes are to ward off bats.

While I don't like rap music at all, I can't get behind the end of all rappers, because I know some people wish that about the music I listen to. 50 cent clearly doesn't have a strong grasp of language, but neither does a woman who could theoretically become the leader of the freaking free world in the next 4 years, provided her running mate croaks. I think you get what I'm talking about here.
Yeah. But I actually like McKain. Or, should I say,
just because I'm not voting for Obama doesn't mean I like McKain.
But then of course, I wasn't exactly born for politics and stuff, more of shunning rap music person, so what do i know?
