    Re: fans of underground rap?

    Been listening to Undisputed Truth a lot lately, not sure why I didn't care much for it when it released.

      "how about sending me questions that are not laced with hipster-irony?

      s"

      I kinda feel like a loser haha...

      By the way WTF is hipster-irony? I still love him though! I sent in another question...hopefully he likes it better.

      Nivek...send him a question man! [email protected]

              BTW Hipster Irony:

              Hipster Irony
              Crying while eating: an example of hipster irony

              The fourth definition of irony is perhaps the most complex, and is frequently used by emo kids, though often they are not aware of this fact. Hipster Irony, as it is called, determines irony as being a self-awareness of one's behavior, insofar as that behavior is incongruent with what is expected and what actually occurs. An example can be seen here. Irony is thus self-awareness of irony, under this definition. It is only thanks to this latter type of irony that the emo and hipster scenes are considered in any way cool, and not just another branch of geekdom.
              Hipster dressed as emo for "ironic" purposes. Gives same justification for being ugly.

              For example: a person who wears, say, a Legend of Zelda t-shirt, but who does it ironically in the hipster sense, is being self-aware of the irony of their situation — they are in essence saying "Man, isn't it so ironic that someone as cool as me would wear such a geeky shirt?" Thus it is that emo kids and hipsters get away with wearing and participating in a lot of what is otherwise considered "fringe" or uncool behavior. It is a fact, however, that deep down inside the little ****-smoking ****-garglers actually think that what they do is cool.
              This woman actually enjoys Darkwing Duck, but pretends to be wearing this shirt "ironically".

              The selection of the correct tee or fashion item with the highest level of irony is a complex process. Irony is a byproduct produced by careful aging of once-popular things, products, or ideas. Much as a sugary grape juice can, given time and bacteria and ****, become a fine wine, a popular idea allowed to wallow into obscurity can become rich in ironic energy. Much as a trained pig can find truffles, a hipster can smell irony in an old thing and make it cool. The irony-aging process can take months or years. For example Thundercats were popular in 1983. By 1988 they were passé. By 1994 virtually unknown. By 2004 obscure enough that wearing a Thundercats printed tee is ironic and hence "cool".

              Anyone who participates in hipster irony is actually a **** and not cool at all. This means that they are actually the victims of traditional irony. Which is ironic.

                so people who wear novelty graphic tees are not cool? Bleehhhhh to that! I love my Nintendo controller t-shirt!!! and my Mr. Bill t-shirt... and my 1999 Spurs championship tee (made in 2008)... and my NASA shirt... (this could go on for a while).

                  Re: fans of underground rap?

                  I hate when people make labels like that. Things like Backpackers, hipster irony, etc are all just ways to categorize and nominalize behaviors. I say wear whatever the **** makes you feel happy and don't worry about other people categorizing you or accusing you of anything.

                  If everyone looked and acted the same the world would be a ****ty place.

                        Yeah honestly i'd be pissed if I was you stewaat. This is (and many other reasons) why I don't like Atmosphere. I don't like Slug. I don't like Ant. Simple as that.

                        He's the loser for not being able to take a joke.

                          You're hoping this guy that doesn't know you replies to your email and you basically insulted him, lol. Don't know about hipster irony... I think that was his way of saying you were trying to be funny but didn't quite make it.

                            Artist: Fat Ray & Black Milk
                            Album: The Set Up
                            Produced By: Black Milk
                            Release Date: March 4th, 2008

                            This album is getting so much love from critics and message boards, and it's well deserved. Alarmingly, Black Milk just keeps getting better in such a short period of time as he's 2008's early candidate for FOUR's best producer of the year. His partner from the now defunct B.R. Gunna, Fat Ray, has Bizarre/Fat Joe's vocals but his flow and lyricism more closely resembles what good Detroit Hip-hop is know for.

                            On the second track "Lookout", Detroit native NameTag returns to the mic after a solid rookie showing in 2007 with his album "Ahead of the Basics". Word to all a yall... NameTag is absolutely sick, just like Detroit, Michigan beckons. Even with Black Milk and Fat Ray's dope lines, nobody did it quite like NameTag who is again up for nomination for Verse of the Year.

                            Elzhi, AB, and Guilty Simpson are also featured on the album making it an overall dope piece of music to listen to. It's relatively short at only 11 tracks with plenty of two & three minute ones, but it'll be one of the most memorable to you by the end of the year. I guarantee this! I don't think there's any reason to dispute that Detroit hip-hop is THEE best out there today. In 2008, Brooklyn is on their heels, but who honestly does it better lyrically with the floetry than Motown? I hope to hear more from Fat Ray soon, and everybody better get prepared for Black Milk's compilation with Sean Price and Guilty Simpson.

                              Well hey they were getting questions like "What's with the hair?...Who is LUCY?...Obabma or Hilary?" I thought mine was a little better and it was serious but I threw in some humor in there.

                              I think he just threw it right back.

                              I should've responded "WTF is hipster irony?".
