One thing I do think though is that some of the older stuff sounds a lot better than this new junk we hear. Like you put on some old Beastie Boys and Run DMC back in the day and you actually could hear some smooth G notes coming from the guitars. Now a days you hear all this techno junk added into it. Rap annoys me because I think they put in all the most annoying sirens from emergency vehicles and just play them over and over again. And now we have all this scream-o rap like Lil John and Ja Rule. They sound like they been smoking for 40 years and have these gruff voices. thats cool? Eesh I find it obnoxious.
