You've proven quite regularly that your taste in music is taken from the homeless shelter.

I prefer descriptions like 'eclectic' and 'elite'.

The elite of the homeless shelter have their own razor, eh?

Genuine question, what is your issue with swearing in songs?

Greycrow

While there is some truth to NDs statement its also about lyrical laziness to me. Its about the use of a swear word for shock value. ''ooo look at grandpa getting upset coz we said ****' . Swearing has its place and I do swear a lot but there is a time and place. I am the guy on the train telling you to pipe down because you are being a lazy campaigner when you use 4 swear words to say hello. If it fits the time and place then go for it.

I just think rap , especially, has utilised the use of swearing to generate outrage rather than use any musical ability to engage with people. When a rapper says **** mother****er and I get upset my kids listen to it more. Its not the music that engages them its the fact that dad doesnt like it. Sure music and musicians have followed that trope for 60 years. Elvis built a career over a swivel hip but try and give me more than the following

Baby's on fire

Boom
Boom, Boom

Showtime, mother****er, it's on
Apocolypse now, I'm droppin' this bomb
You can't **** with this song
I'll stick to this spliff, I'm not klapping this bong
I'm a wild child, I don't wanna go to bed
Oh, shit, sorry man, I'm stoned again
Ooh, now everythings getting so psychedelic
When I'm doos dronk then I forget all my fokken lyrics
Like um, uh, who gives a ****?
Don't worry 'bout it, just blow a kiss to me
I like danger, romance and mystery
I'm a lucky ducky, get mad shit for free
I rock more bling than Mr. T
I make it look easy 'cause it is to me
My daddy says it's lekker fokken spif to see
A South African cherrie makin' history

Baby's on fire
She's got me going fokken crazy soos a man naaier
O jirre God se Jesus

Baby's on fire

Hi-Tek, drop that four to the floor
I get real paid, what you think I do this for?
My bodyguard help me get to the bar
Neill Blomkamps makin' me a movie star
A lot of bad boys wanna piece of me
If you're a lucky boy I'll let you sneak a peek
My Zef styles mother****in' freaky-deek
I don't got beef 'cause I don't eat no meat
I'm on some other shit, yo, I know I speak unique
**** your whole shit up when I freak the beat
I love it when Kimmy talks sweet to me
C'mon, c'mon, Kimmy, Kimmy, speak to me
I take a trip down memory lane
Like yo, **** fifteen seconds of fame
I'm a young blood comin' up fresh in the game
Yo-Landi Vi$$er, mother****er, you all remember the name

Baby's on fire
She's got me going fokken crazy soos a man naaier
O jirre God se Jesus

Baby's on fire [x4]

Aaah, freak out!
No need to get so deep
Nothin' quite like a mother****in' techno beat
A techno beat - a techno beat
A techno - a techno - a techno beat
Just say what's up, don't try to get so deep
You know me, maar ek ken jou nie
Ek ken jou nie - ek ken jou nie
Ek ken jou - ek ken jou - ek ken jou nie

Baby's on fire
She's got me going fokken crazy soos a man naaier
O jirre God se Jesus

Baby's on fire

Flame on, mother****ers

------------------------------------------

Also its becoming my thing to comment on swearing so I will continue. I actually think the above song is musically fine, it wont be getting votes but the music saves it from a possible Billy. Also the film clip is tasteless in the extreme , but once again thats the whole idea of the song and video. To create a divide

What's the Seth Efrican version of a wigga? A waffir perhaps?

 

[Freofalcon]

LOL you take me too serious sunshine.

I doubt anybody takes you seriously.

 

[El Dubya]

Zef.

 

[GreyCrow]

Boted

 

[BRAB]

Other than A and J was a pretty shit round.

Somehow foreign throat singing managed to avoid the Billy. I'm in shock.

I'm impressed that someone (General Soreness?) actually had the balls to go completely against the grain and nom that. It won't feature in my votes but I won't punish him for it either.

[TubbsFarquhar]

Boted. A&J aside, I enjoyed that, could've given half of the list votes.

 

[NinjaSwan]

Why would I billy art?

They're shit.

I actually listened to it 10 minutes ago and have already forgotten it completely.

 

[El Dubya]

WAAX was shit A&J were incestuous shit, everything else was pretty good.

Did you actually listen to the Lyrics?

 

[NaturalDisaster]

Did you actually listen to the Lyrics?

“Got to say mmm mmm mmm”

Captivating.........

 

[NinjaSwan]

Did you actually listen to the Lyrics?

Hard to concentrate on them when I kept dozing off.

 

[BRAB]

“Got to say mmm mmm mmm”

Captivating.........

There's actually a deeper meaning.

Hard to concentrate on them when I kept dozing off.

Low IQ?
