That is the way I percieve new rap... I like rap like NWA, Ice T, and Public Enemy; but I do not get into the mainstream radio hip-hop flavor of the week. I dislike it because of what it is about.
Adding to the list.
Good Charlotte. These guys listed Bad Religion as a major "influence" in their music. I fail to see any comparison. All it is is music for 12 year old girls.
Green Day. I never saw anything special about these guys even when people say that "Dookie" is good, which it isn't IMO. These guys came out with a record a few years ago called "American Idiot" and they have always tried to sound like brits when they are indeed from the USA. These guys are obviously not proud of their heritage and deserve to be deported to the nearest third world African country to see how "shitty" the USA really is. Disrespecting your country is not activism it is just unintelligent. Eyeliner and activism don't mix anyways.

Give us this day our daily bread, your legacy we'll not forget. Lick the wounds and cleanse the land, the modern world rejects your hand... Sinister rouge coming back for more to even the score! --- Bad Religion
