Great idea, Dalsh!!! I can't think of anyone more deserving of a star than Tori. ~*~*~*~*~*~ I wish I had more time to post these days.... stuff's gotten hectic in my lab, and I've been working crazy hours every day. In fact, I'm at work right now, on New Year's Eve day-- and I'll be here till 9:30 pm, and then I have to come in tomorrow. Blah! (Hey, who am I kidding... I love what I'm doing, so it is completely worth it.) I still enjoy reading the digests during breaks, and I hope that everyone is having a happy holiday season. :-) with my love for the new year.... ~Linda~ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Jes'ca and Angela, happy belated bday. ^^ now.. on with the replies! :D lemme start the post off with the rap discussion Dani and I are having.. but before I get right into it, yes, I'm familiar with when the true old-school GOLDEN years were.. I just referred to '97-99 as MY golden years for it because I didn't truly start paying attention to stuff like MTV until the 90's, and those years (97-99) were the peak of when I actually cared about MTV in general--particularly hip hop. ANYWAY.. I do enjoy Public Enemy, altho I don't own any of their albums, and I have heard about Jurassic 5 from a friend, but haven't heard anything of theirs yet.. (must download.. must download.. need new music..) and I pretty much forgot about 'em until you brought them up. *ahem* anyway again.. I wasn't as interested in much else except for what was blaring all over MTV at the time, yes, but some of it actually also turned me off too (Thong Song for example). I still tend to work that way, except it's not *MTV* that I watch anymore, it's the College Television Network channel at school that I watch. So far, it's kinda disappointing overall, but that IS how I discovered Tori, for one thing. Dani mentioned: "I am predominantly drawn to rhythm in music..." so am I. first and foremost, if it's got a catchy beat, my ears perk up. Then, if it's got good melody, or it's haunting (I loooove haunting), I keep listening. If it's somebody I haven't heard much of before (like Tori), I'll go home and check out other songs by whoever it was.. sometimes I'm hooked, sometimes I'm turned completely off--other than that one song that caught my attention. I think part of my "problem" with rap nowadays is that overall, especially in the last two years, I've been turned on a WHOLE lot more by stuff like rock.. punk.. industrial.. and plain ol' piano music (from classical to Tori.). I'm still a very beat-driven girl, but I seem to be getting my beats from rock instead of rap. it ALSO does NOT help that last quarter, before I got my new CD player in my car, all I had was the radio, and the station that I listened to predominantly was the pop/hip hop channel or the r&b/hip hop channel.. and both of those stations played the SAME damned thing every stinking hour! overplay got to me, basically. You mentioned the Beastie Boys.. I don't own any albums by them, but my sister does, and I LOVE 'em. I listened to them more in '95-96 than I did later, however, because that was the year my sister was a senior in high school (I was a freshman.. my brother was a junior.. the oldest one got to drive and as a result, pick the music to play). Dani said: "I love rap music because it just happens to be the stuff that makes my ears the happiest." it used to make my ears content and blissful too, and it still does, generally, but these days I'm more likely to throw in Green Day or Bif Naked or Tori or NIN into the CD player, and while I love these artists, it kinda scares me that I've changed so much when remembering how it was like for me in the late 90's. I don't think Kid Rock really counts as hip-hop.. so much as he counts for rock-rap, which is something different to what we're discussing here, I believe. Same with Limp Bizkit. The more I think about it, the more I think that Kid Rock lumped into the hip-hop genre makes him stick out worse than a sore thumb. (and it's been a few days since I bought his new album along with Green Day and NIN.. and I've only listened to him *once*.. could it be that I'm finally growing out of him too??) As for the sampling issue, I'm not against sampling 95% of the songs on this or that album.. I'm more against **everything** on the album being sampled. *I* want to sample songs myself, but I also like originality. Puff Daddy (I refuuuuuuuse to call him P Diddy.) disappointed me because *EVERY* track on his album was sampled, even the ones that I didn't know were sampled (most likely cuz I didn't know the song). I *do* understand that sampling is the basis of most hip hop, old and new, but unless I've been greatly wronged, I've also understood that *some* songs by these rappers had no sampling behind it, and if this is true (the no samples in a few songs), then I'd like to see Puffy do that for a change in at least one or two songs. In the end, I don't much like admitting that I'm ignorant to things, ESPECIALLY when it comes to music, but sometimes that's exactly the problem. "Ignorant" is so often considered a terrible thing because usually, if you call someone ignorant, they're likely to feel insulted because they feel as if you just called them "totally and utterly stupid", since it is too often related with backwards people living out in the country somewhere in Oklahoma in a trailer park home, which it shouldn't be. hmm.. I need to go. it's 2:30 and I woke up an hour and a half ago and I still haven't gotten ready for the day. I'll reply to the other yummy stuff either tonight after the new year festivities, or tomorrow when everybody else is busy being hung over and burying their heads under their pillows. :D HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!! :D Sincerely, Cyndi S.
