I was listening to American life; Madonna’s new single. The beat was hype, a nice little tune you know. The singing was tolerable and then the chick starts rapping. WTF, please stop this! When will these fucking people understand rapping is a skill?
Let me make a slight disclaimer, I’m working off the assumption that she was rapping. Anyone who thinks that her Mickey Mouse rap was good, please listen to some of these artist (because I know you’re out there.).
Jay-Z, Public Enemy, Camron, Styles P, Krs One, Eminem... shit there are far too may to list. By now you should get what I’m saying.

Debbie Harry (blondie) is the reason rap blew up in the 1st place.
Jay-Z was still in diapers.

maybe the topic to be addressed is media whoredom , as mentioned. there are many media transmittable diseases floating in the temporary aether.

James what is your point.
Who are you try to teach rap history to?
and Jay-Z is the shit.
listen to his new freestyle.
Jay-z - young black gifted (freestyle)

she's not trying to rap. she has her own style.
- Jamesh0
My point is this isn't the 1st time a platinum blonde is trying to rap.
but nobody was playa-hatin' on blondie back in tha day.
and I like Jay Z even though he usually only has a couple good songs per CD.
I prefer the likes of Outkast or Dalek..

true dat! get that stuff outta' here, straight streets is what I want to hear, no Upper West Side Manhattan BS. She thinks she is Debbie Harry, I don't think so!
- JazX0
Actually Debbie Harry is created, by some, to have started the whole Hip-Hop/Rap idea. Crazy right? That and Rapper's Delight
- Jamesh0
she didn't start the idea but she brought it into the spotlight.
and oh yeah, it's not the streets anymore.. it's country roads and fried chicken and grits.
Yee Haw!

Rapture.
- JazX0
Even hip-hop, which everyone from Vibe to Time magazine acknowledges as the music of the '90s, has a few blond roots, for while Grandmaster Flash and Kool Herc invented it, Blondie brought it to the masses -- "Rapture" was, after all, the first No. 1 rap song ever. http://www.salon.com/ent/music/f…

like rasco said "madonna was f*cking fab five freddie when you were 2"
fab five freddy is from the song 'rapture' by blondie.
