| ___________________________________ [May 4,2012 4:50pm - arktourap ""] Missing my point. It's funny that people get offended by the fact that rap doesn't fit the classical definition of music. Rap has it's own definition. Go ahead and transcribe a rap song. You can't. Also lol again at the "if rap isn't then metal isn't either" chestnut. Don't get offended bros. Rap is rap and rap is not music, shit's been confuurmed by smarter people than you or I. |
| ___________________________________________ [May 4,2012 5:02pm - arillius_the_white ""] Snoop Dogg tweeted about it calling him a true pioneer. Bunch of other rappers and hip hop artists are too. NO INFLUENCE? Where are you alx, you need to admit you were wrong here. |
| ________________________________ [May 4,2012 5:19pm - RustyPS ""] This "if you don't play instruments, you don't play music" argument is so tired. The Beastie Boys were absolutely influential. If you don't get that, no amount of logical explanation is going to change your mind. Anyways, RIP MCA. What a shame. |
| _____________________________________ [May 4,2012 5:24pm - beastie fan ""] they all played instruments and did a whole instrument cd and tour. |

People gave credit to him as an influence all the time when he was ALIVE. Sympathy tweets don't count. I know you're smart enough to know that much. I'm not denying that they were a talented and successful group, but it pisses me off when the short attention spanned majority gives this level of attention to someone who most of us (let's face it) haven't heard about in years. When someone dies, all of a sudden our cohort sees it fitting to have an anniversary of their death every year and play their music on that day. It's as if you only play those songs to remember their lives. You didn't fucking know them! Music is music, listen to it when the mood strikes. Sorry I didn't immediately respond, I was grocery shopping in Chinatown. |

I think the problem is that you're using "the classical definition of music" and "music" as if they were the same thing. That's one way to look at it, but it's not the only one and certainly not the "right" one by any objective standard. |

I don't think this "most of us," i.e. people posting on a New England heavy metal messageboard, are a very good barometer of a rapper's cultural relevance. |
| ___________________________________________ [May 4,2012 7:09pm - arillius_the_white ""] It is a commonality that musical relevance increases after death. Nice job pointing that out!! |

Sorry I didn't immediately respond, I was grocery shopping in Chinatown. I feel like the hip-hop world has acknowledged the Beastie Boys' influence plenty by SAMPLING THEM NONSTOP FOR DECADES, to the point where it didn't really need to be acknowledged out loud. (Except, it has been acknowledged, out loud and in print, by tons and tons and tons of artists in the field. Since the beginning. How you are not aware of this is another discussion entirely.) |

Love BLACK WITCHERY's take on "She's Crafty" though I coulda done without the ROCKAPELLA track. |
