I'll stick with actual music, kthx. Joking aside, there is decent rap, but it generally must be old; pretty much everything out this century is all about defamation, defecation, and derivation. Nearly all of the content, or at least all of the immediately apparent content is filled with vulgarities, racial slurs and all varieties of naughty words linked incoherently in a horrid mockery of beat poetry. But there is some nice stuff, and that's fine by me. I use (c)rap to refer to Christian rap, though, because it definitely is. |

There is a LOT of that, yes. But there's also a lot of awesome stuff if you know where to look. Atmosphere and Shad K are wicked examples of awesome no-nonsense stuff. I mean, you're right to say MOST of it all that garbage, but it's not like there's only finite amount of great stuff from today. And still, some of the stuff with questionable content can be good, but generally only if viewed from a certain perspective (i.e. the artist rhymes well, or has a good beat, etc.) I'll listen to generally anything if I like it. I don't care what genre it is, it just depends if I like it or not.
Exactly. |

Nothing.
It's where you are when you're 23 is all. I do NOT want to be living with my parents when I hit 23.
That is completely a matter of situation/predicament, and has nothing to do with age. It doesn't mean Xero is a loser or is even poor or unsuccessful. There's an infinite number of reasons he could still be at home. Maybe his college/uni is close enough, and he can save money this way. Maybe he wants to save up so he can live alone in a NICE place instead of with two random roommates in #####in' dingetown like most early 20-somethings still-in-school/careerless(for now) people. Statements like that are why I can't stand teenagers. Everything about them is so... limited... I mean not you specifically, Chaos, but cut the ##### man. It really shows your age, and I think it makes you look rather ignorant about how much it actually takes to live on your own. I'm about to be 22 in early August. I live at home. I work two jobs that are full days (and sometimes pick up extra days). I've been going to college full time for 3 years and am hopefully going into a fourth, which won't even be my final year, and the workload of my program has been compared to LAW SCHOOL by people IN law school. My family has never been a family of "means", so to speak, and I'm pretty much the first, second, or MAYBE third person to go to college in both sides of my family or to keep an actual career focus for this long at this age. I paid my first and third year in college myself, and got a loan for the second year that I still have to pay off. I haven't gone on a real vacation since I was 12 and I've been working since I was 14. I think it's alright that I live at home, thanks. |
