Have come to the conclusion that this sort of music is part of the road to musical awakening for white folk. You grow up being into rock music and all that nonsense that sounds the same every song, then at some point you hear one of these more "heavy" rap tunes and think hey that's cool, I could get into this. It's safe because it's still white people making white people music, so at a young age you don't have to struggle to come to terms with being called a chav or wigger for liking it, but it's the rapping that really has you hooked. Eventually you move onto either the New York underground hiphop scene for it's gritty sound (a sort of halfway house between "rapcore" and real east coast rap a lot of the time) or g-funk west coast rap for the bouncy beats and ReBeLLiOuS anti-authority nature of the lyrics, and with any luck from that point you aren't too conceited to expand your knowledge across the entire genre and actively look for new things (not new in terms of time often, in terms of experience to you) within the ever-evolving forms of hiphop to enjoy.

Basically one day you'll be sitting around chilling to some Wu Tang and laughing at your former self for being in love with the likes of Fred Durst, unless you grow up to actually be Fred Durst - I'm sure you've seen the type, guys in their mid twenties and thirties still wearing a cap backwards and a faded **** THA POLICE tshirt flapping around their chub rolls. Please don't grow up to be one of them lol

so tom just said what i wanted to say but more intelligently. loves ya thomas xox

Already got their discography



I wasn't talking about rap as a whole,
as anyone who can read can clearly see I said a lot of the lyrics are better than hip-hop, not all.
I'll give you a little example if it helps:

A little verse from Hollywood Undead - Undead
"What? You can't see the sarcasm in the verses I spit?
What? You think I just got lucky and didn't work for this *REMOVED*?
*REMOVED*. I've been working at this ever since I was a kid,
I played a million empty shows to only family and friends."

A little extract from Snoop Dogg - Snoop Dogg

"ou play me and I'll play you
You pay me and I'll pay you
Hold on boo, you got the game all wrong
This ain't your thang, this my song"

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not an idiot, and I carefully chose these example to help me prove my point. I am aware that as a genre in general, hip hop and rap tend to have better rappers and lyricists than rapcore, but in certain instances, rapcore can compete very well with the more known genres.

Thanks for the other suggestions as well.

Everywhere I Go, ******* always know

Everywhere I Go, ******* always know
That Charlie Scene has got a weenie that he loves to show

(Verse 1) (Charlie Scene)
Wake up
Grab beer
Grab rear
Shave beard
Put on some scene gear
Gotta get drunk before my mom wakes up
Break-up with my girlfriend so I can bang *****
I'm undead, unfed
Been sleeping on bunk beds
Since ten
So if I don't booze it, I'm gonna lose it
Everybody get to it, do it, get ruined

those are also some hollywood undead lyrics,man they're so thoughtful and deep, i wish i could write like that. face it dude, rapcore is ****, i would assume you like brokencyde as well and wear neon colours all the time.

Wait you mean Brokencyde aren't a great band?

Thanks for all the spam guys, and the -rep for the title post was a nice touch as well!
If you actually want to answer my question, then feel free lmao, if you want to continue "trolling", if you can even call it that, then it's gonna fall on deaf ears I'm afraid.

Why? Just because not everyone fits with it doesn't mean it isn't true as a generalisation. I'm not being offensive, it's just social observation
