Handlebars?

I don't listen to the radio much anymore, but everytime I do now this stupid song by "flobots" comes on. It's some white dude rapping about random stuff, it's really embarassing and apparently popular.

You really think its about random stuff? I happen to like the song, I realize its not about random stuff.

What does his color have to do with anything either?

Yeah I heard it was some goverment bashing song with hidden meanings, but that don't make it good.

And his color has alot to do with it. Othen than Aesop (who's Jewish any way) I hate all white rapper, black guys have much better flow.

Well maybe it is a government bashing song. I figured it was about how much people can accomplish, starting with bike tricks to building things to help people, but also they can accomplish destruction.

As far as preffering black rappers to white, I won't say thats racist, but it is close minded.

That is what I was hoping this thread was about. Sorry to interrupt, I'll go away now.

Whatever, it just comes off as silly to me. Just annoys me.

Well here's about five black dudes (Del, Phesto, Tajai, Opio and A-plus)


You can try to top that with a white dudes song, but I doubt you can.

And while I'm at it, have a listen to MF DOOM

well i can't say I can find anything better, because its a matter of taste and we all have different tastes. But even if the best person at doing something is a certain color, doesn't mean everyone else is ****.

Good point, but I still (normally) find it corny when white guys rap.
