I think I'm not pathetic enough to obsess over that.

what family is that exactly? I don't get the comparison at all

A lot of people say no limit's main achievement was selling a ****load of records with no real talent. While I like their sound... Its sorta true that master p and silk the shocker can't really rap to save their lives... But I just like the way it sounds plus it has nostalgic value for me

I wasn't ever gonna go out of my way to trash the eagles but if you're saying if you don't love them there's something wrong with you... Apparently there's something wrong with me cause to me they just seem boring.

Yeah good point, bat. Knowing a lot about music makes me a loser.

This is not a line-of-influence drawing contest dude

Raw ass DIY hip hop with underground origins that mostly only resonates with deep dish fans.

Yeah. I mean I can’t argue with taste. Also, you don’t get on a pedestal and say they’re trash. You just say you don’t like them. I understand that.

I think they have good songs that everyone should be able to enjoy but you’re not like hey listen Hawk I can tell you what’s what.

Plus, I always respect where you come from with hip hop because the artists you like always have a gritty genuine feel to their music. When you post a YouTube link I always listen.

I think you like what you like and I also like what you like. There’s a difference between saying I find the Eagles boring and saying the Eagles are boring. I’d probably be disappointed if you liked the Eagles because it’s not your way and I respect that.

It is when you’re claiming you know Bikini Kill’s place in the overall picture of punk rock.

Are they top 20. If so list them out. Exactly where are they?

You're inflating my claims in the hope they won't fit through the gate you're trying to keep.

So you don’t know where the **** they rank.

I think they’re a great band and your journal is great. And carving out a punk space comparable to the Eagles in yacht rock is an astonishing accomplishment. I’m not dissing them.

I'm just not taking your bait. I'm aware you're not trying to diss them, you're busy dissing yourself
