Half-casts aint acceptable, need to be 100 percent black :)
Why the fuck is he racist? I hate it when pricks like you use 'racist' so fucking easily. 'fuck off!'... i think marcofella should be compared with Hitler. Nazi bastard.
uhhhhh.......Hitler? Natzi? How do you use that term so easily? Edumacate (spelled that wong on purpose loser) yourself more and see that is nothing LIKE Hilter or Natzis. You need to start thinking before you open that cock-hole of a mouth again.
What is 50 cent doing in the top 10?
what exactly has he done about music that will stay in music history?
Pharrell Williams on the other side.
Looking forward to his solo album,it could be great if it is Neptunes on good form
50 Cent with his groups G-Unit are molding american culture. Lilttle kids are running around yelling G-Unit. I mean.....the thing is, 50 Cent came out with so much wham that even though he's only been around for about 8 months he's already made a profound impact on black and rap culture.....perhpas....if oyu lived in america, you could see this first hand. I rest my case. Thank you.
haha.....dont we all. That dude (chap) is on the tv (tube) all the fricken time. ANd he has a movie coming out. I would say that he is in fact, the new wham
Yeah, but in Britain kids were running around helping try and lynch paediatricians as paedophiles not so long ago. Just because something affects culture don't mean it's good.
50 Cent, on the other hand is a twat, playing up to all the white stereotypes of black people (G-Unit stands for Gorilla Unit) and making shit, half-assed music (Candy Shop is one of the worst pieces of music I have ever heard, and my sister gets the NOW compilations. His impact is simply the extent to which The Man has seen that gangsta culture is marketable and is selling it to kids, black and white, who don't (and some, perhaps, who should) know better).
This all probably don't make sense, but hey. Rap and hip-hop can be so good, it's a shame when it's all a bit crap.
You took my pharse "i rest my case" and he cant repersent all of them i think you're wrong but i get you're saying soo......BLACK PEOPLE MAKE THE BEST MUSIC AND I LOVE THEM ALL!
i thought you were going to be spending less time on here?
didn't you announce that a couple of weeks ago?
or was it like a mirage in the desert?
an oasis.
a vision.
a hope.
a wish.
a dream.
sigh.
you take message boards way too seriously.
so is what i'm saying false? you didn't say you were going to cut down on the hours you spend on here?
oh, i was right.
funny that.
and how is being racist any worse than telling someone to "fuck off and die"?
you shouldn't be such a hypocrite, marco.
I don't see what me posting on DiS has to do with this thread. I'm confused, please explain.
You are just an offensive little man who seems intent on getting a bad reaction from me. Well guess what, BINGO, you've won.
"you take message boards way too seriously" If i see something i don't agree with, or if i find something offensive i will react. Be it on a message board or otherwise. I don't think that fact that it is on a message board alters the fact that you are intent on pissing me off for whatever reason!
Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly.
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast.
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise.
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong.
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast.

Off to the cupboard with you now, Chip.
It's past your bedtime. Good night, love.
White middle class well-brought-up children who get to a certain age and feel the need to rebel/be misunderstood. Unfortunately they've not got much to kick out at so they come on here and try and shock. That's my theory anyways and I'm sticking to it.
This thread is crazy! The idea that black musicians' contributions to music can be filtered down to a top ten is completely bonkers for a start. Top tens are boring enough anyway but to start a racially-based one is lunacy and betrays a latent prejudice. What next? Top ten disabled musicians? Why anyone would want to categorise music by such criteria is beyond me.
well people do this to get a reaction from other users. Sometimes it's just someone using a different account because they're bored. Shock value tv/comedy has alot to answer for. It's probably also having a dig at this sites penchant for lists.
I'm confused!?! Its racist to have a list of black people?!? Then is it xenophobic to have a list of the best British band or singers. Just want someone to clear this up for me. How about a list of the best females in music - would that be sexist.
Oh by they way there are far to many of you that spend too much time on here - come on music is great but it helps to go and live a life as well - maybe this link will help:
I think most people are killing time at work which begs the question - what are you doing here?? We'd all be frolicking in the fields and scrumping apples if we could!
I don't really know what to do with this thread. It doesn't seem either appropriate or inappropriate. I suppose if your mind it open to prejudice, you'll take this as prejudice. If you're a little more open-minded, then all this thread is is an extension of 'Your Favourite U.S Bands' or whatever the fuck else.
Well it was the "Half-casts aint acceptable, need to be 100 percent black :) " qualifier that swung it for me. But I'll try and be a bit more "open minded" in future. Cheers Colin. x
