Thought I'd throw a controversial track in for the day...

artist: Body Count
song: Cop Killer
genre: Punk f?!kin' Rock

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSvD5SM_uI4

Quibble about the genre if you like; the attitude is definitely Punk Rock. This track was surrounded by all sorts of controversy; so much so, that in later presses of this album, the label decided to pull this track.

Let's hear it for YouTube, and user-generated content. Heh.

LOL, that first part is Hilarious.
A black man, singing Punk!! Maybe thats why I've never heard of Ice-T
Even though he seems to be a little misguided about da police its pretty good

:Sandstorm
:Techno

Ho-lee sh!t... You've never heard of Ice-T??

We've got to remedy that right now...

artist: Ice-T
song: Midnight
genre: Rap

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX-oVWfSoV4

song: Colors

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KP0OaUOQGCg

song: New Jack Hustler

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIJkGAWAyxg

That's pretty "Whack"...But my guess is ive never heard of him because looks like his prime time was back in the day (1991) and hes from california..

I don't know much about 2Pac..but people tell me this song is good
:2pac
:Only God Can Judge Me

*shakes head*

How you young bucks know about N.W.A. and Ice Cube, but not know about Ice-T is beyond me...

Looks like I gotta take it way back now...

artist: Herbie Hancock
song: Rockit
genre: Hip Hop

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xhh38a3E8ds

This track is, arguably, THE start of turntablism in hip hop.

song: The Message
genre: Hip Hop

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3kRuJhIVIo

artist: Afrika Bambaataa and the Soulsonic Force
song: Planet Rock

...and, interestingly enough, the melody in the background was borrowed from the influential electronic group Kraftwerk:

artist: Kraftwerk
song: Trans Europe Express

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWlgbAc3bbM

I'm feelin' like ramblin' with this one...


Starting off, we have an Industrial cover of a Rod Stewart song:

artist: Revolting Cocks
song: Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?
genre: Industrial

the vocals of which were laid down by Alain Jourgensen of Ministry (who also appear on page 5 of this thread):

artist: Ministry
song: Thieves

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dG_-rq1ON9Y

who also had a side project colorfully named:

artist: 1000 Homo DJs
song: Supernaut
genre: Industrial/Rock

I reckon its unfortunate ive never heard of NWA either, Now ice cube isn't he an actor?

Seriously??

Before everyone was riding 2pac and 50-Cent's jock, wanting to be a thug, everyone wanted to be a gangsta.

N.W.A. was one of the key groups that blew up the Gangsta Rap scene:

song: Straight Outta Compton

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AACFNJdTKOc

You don't actually like those songs...right?



Now why would you bring Michael Jackson into this...
Id love to see him do a make a comeback from his peter pan ranch or w/e its called...



haha never knew ice cube was a rapper
I was never big on 2pac or 50..Now eminem is a completely different story, ive been listening to his music since i was in Middle School
