Rap music is music. However, It's not in the traditional sense of how we understand music. The vocals are filled with slangs that gangs used since the 70s and a lot of the instrumentations are replaced with "Street Sounds" instead of traditional instruments. Music is defined as any combination of sounds that is pleasing to the ear, so while one person may find it as "noise" another person can find it pleasing to the ear and so call "vibe" with it as how I think the kids would say it these days.
ah, so some one finally read between the lines. am i the only one that figured this was a ploy to keep the defense contractors from going bankrupt in the post-afghanistan/iraq years to come?

I honestly fail to grasp what Kony 2012 is about. It seems stupid, and I don't plan to waste my time on it, when I could waste time on my 3DS or my DSi.
A homebody with nothing better to do than lurk on the Internet.
this whole thing stinks like shit, cavernio. follow the profits.
and this is what the ugandan people are like, need i remind you:
"As Africans, we want to ask Barack Obama to explain to us, is this what you wants to bring to Africa as a human right? To eat the poo poo?"
giving money to the ugandan people would probably make me feel the same way as if i were to donate money to a Rick Perry or Michelle Bachmann political campaign.

Politics in general make me think this way.

Well. About half of this thread was incredibly painful to read, and the thread as a whole left me with a profound sense of not giving a shit that I keep about just about everything. Let me know when something's actually done so I can be like "oh cool, this guy's dead, good on ya mate".
Also Cavernio, Actually think about what you're saying before replying. I mean REALLY think about it. When you say things like, and I'm paraphrasing, "You should trust what the company says over what outside people are saying" it hurts. Want a great example? Enron. You need the outside people to actually look into their financial reports that they publish and make damn sure they aren't doing anything wrong, there aren't any discrepancies, etc, and only using the 32% or w/e to fund actually doing something is, as Rubix said, a gross violation of the supposed ethics of the company. There's a reason anybody with a remotely economic mind advocates initial distrust in dealings, you should assume you're getting screwed over because it's likely that you will be if you don't pay attention.
Also, I hate to be a nitpicker, but when you mess up a few words it detracts from the overall point you're trying to make, proofread a little or something.
OMG they aren't using only 32% or 16% of their profits for their cause!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
