Yeah, some of it is pretty stupid. But I don't see why everyone always generalizes hip-hop slang to stuff like shi zzle. (Why is that censored?) That was made by Snoop Dog and is only used by Snoop Dog. nintendorocks
Also why do rappers have such dumb names, 50 cent, the game, easy E?

You could say that about any genre of music. The Doors, who names a band after a ****ing door? Led Zeppelin, I'm not even 100% percent sure I know what that means. AC/DC, the list goes on.

Plus led zeppelin sounds good, easy e and names like kanye west just sound silly to me.
The only slang I kinda get annoyed with are like when they have to yell in their rap songs or like today, when one of the guys on radio was saying a phone number:
One-eight-hunned-blah blah blah...
I didn't understand it.

The name Led Zeppelin came about because Keith Moon said that the band would go over "like a lead zeppelin". Lead is a form of metal, and a zeppelin is like a blimp. AC/DC refers to alternating electric current and direct electric current, fitting in with the band's theme of "high voltage rock and roll".

That's his real name...[QUOTE="kurama2002"]You disappoint me Film-Guy :(. I didn't know you can stoop this low.Film-Guy
I like arap and hip hop alot and am not trying to be insulting or generalize. But sometimes the words the mainstream rappers use are...a bit stupid to be honest.
I guess your right. There is a rapper named "Big Coon", i think its time to realize stupidity. Or Shorty Sh*t Stain.

I'm not taking any sides in this. I think rap is terrible, but I really don't care what they decide to call themselves.why do some rappers put "lil" in front of their name?
SaintTheKing
Now, THAT is stupid. Why would they want to be little? Shouldn't it be like "Big Jon"? I think that would make more sense.

So they can feel young i think but almost all rappers with "lil" and "young" in front of there name suck.
[QUOTE="B05T0N"][QUOTE="Film-Guy"]names like kanye west just sound silly to me.Film-Guy
I didnt realize that, bad example. Ja Rule is a better example.

Ja Rule sounds silly to me, its not what it means it just sounds silly.
Man, I agree, all this slang is SO STUPID. I just hate how the absolutely massacre the English language and because they can make bad music and get into drugs and gangs people think they're cool and start saying stuff like "hating on [something]" or "aight" and "true dat" for some light examples. Then the way they have to swear every other word just makes them seem so low.
Googled rap slang and found this: (too lazy to linkify)

Guess I should warn you that there's quite a bit of swearing on there (unsurprisingly). Also, the icon (from what I can tell anyway) is a crosshair aiming at a policeman. Really classy.
