You guys know an opinion is always biased right?... You know, what with the whole idea of an opinion being subjective and all? So what if the pw dislikes rappers sampling other songs and rapping over the top. That's his opinion. There's no need to be so cofrontational or to take the predictable response of lulz rock sucks etc. Really.

Neurosis, yes u hav a point there about opinions. It is his opinion at the end of the day, but if he feels that he can voice his opinion bout his dislike 4 rap then its only fair that others do the same bout rock and he wasnt exactly bein polite about his opinion so its reasonable that others wuld reply in a similar manner. I'm nt sayn its right but thats the way it went, btw i hav nothn against rock.

Well, for one thing, I don't believe the P.W. Was being impolite, but even if he was, certainly more mildly than some posters here. ...Even though he didn't use the word 'some' it was implied as I doubt all rappers do it, so by default, he was only refering to ones that do and only the instances THAT they do.

Also, Alien Ant Farm did a cover of Smoothe Criminal, which is where a band plays a song that another band recorded first. Rap artists don't do covers. They don't make their own version of a complete song by another artist. They take pieces of the original recording of a song by another band and edit it into the recording of their OTHERWISE original song. It's a totally different thing.

And we do actually complain about covers sometimes, too.........internally.

Yes Nightpup, its called sampling, and i've heard quite a few good sampled tracks. Most samples dnt even come 4rm rock tracks bt 4rm disco, jazz n motown. Takn a whole rock track 2 b covered by a rapper wuldnt sound gr8 wuld it. Thats y sampling works 4 hiphop coz the dynamics of the music are different than those of rock. The tempo, pitch, beat programming/drum progressions are very difrent which makes it difficult 4 rappers 2 do cover tracks the way rockers wuld.

Remaking of music has quite a few forms, some which work 4 sum music genres n sum which dont. House does remixing, hiphop does sampling, rock, pop, rnb, jazz etc mainly has covers. Each one unto his own is wat i say.
