I don't have a mike.

Chagen · 2011-05-04 21:54:48

So I could rap about my life (I'm actually a semi-decent rapper).

Which is kinda dumb. I'm not like those rappers whose lives legitimately were shit and were using rap to get their message out. So I really can't rap about my life, lest I make a more comedic album. Or a Rock Rap Opera/Concept Album. So yeah.

But sometimes I feel like grabbing my mike and rapping.

'Cept I don't have a mike.

Dammit.

You could buy a decent set of headphones. I got a good pair for around $30, and it comes with a built-in microphone.

^^ YOU'RE NOT DYRE

Chagen,

I would guess that you could get a decent mike for a relatively cheap price. Is the issue that you kind of want one, but not enough to actually buy one? If so, I can relate to that kind of thing.

Bob · 2011-05-04 22:06:35

Yay

GLORIOUSLeader · 2011-05-04 22:06:54

!Alo¡

Chagen · 2011-05-04 22:11:19

DYRE: What exactly is so horrible about me having aspirations of being a rapper?

DYRE · 2011-05-04 22:12:25

Not much in particular, but I have expectations to live up to apparently, so "..." is the only reply to your OP that you'll get from me.

RocketDude · 2011-05-04 22:18:35

You could go the Weird Al Yankovic route and make comedic lyrics.

Schitzo · 2011-05-04 22:19:48

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE

Rap is a pretty cool art form, ti uses nonpitched syllables and doesnt afraid of controversy.

That said, y'all's problem with rap is the lyrics, not the music or literary basis itself.

..."Katy Perry" doesn't count as a genre of music, does it?

Gelzo · 2011-05-04 23:16:47

Every so often I hear about some rap artist in the middle east who uses their work to rally support for democracy. It'd be cool if that was something that was more common.

Bob · 2011-05-04 23:17:25

Chagen, you know what to do.

Deboss · 2011-05-04 23:46:34

I have a problem with rap's music. Specifically the lack of instruments and the focus on monotone or simply angry voices.

TheConductor · 2011-05-05 01:04:25

Do it man.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-05-05 11:01:05

@Deboss: The voice is an instrument, sir, and I think you forget rhythm as a major component of music.

Howdy, Stranger!
