Members boosh Posted January 22, 2006 Members Share Posted January 22, 2006 I mean like real hiphop/rap but for little kids age 2 to 8.Does it exsist? With lyrics like "Brush yo teeth ,you little mammal or your face will look like a one humped Camel" We have a great band here which only plays childeren stuff and they have a lot of succes. I'm going to a gig next month with 2 yo Skip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blackpig Posted January 22, 2006 Members Share Posted January 22, 2006 Don't go corrupting the little mites with shallow nihilism at such a tender age. They won't be innocent for long and they'll have all their life to learn about drugs, cheap jewellery, clothes that don't fit, wife beating and chillin' wid ma bitch, yo?

Members revrufus Posted January 24, 2006 Members Share Posted January 24, 2006 I think it is a wonderful idea, as rap has been incorporated into many things, even as an educational tool to help kids focus on their studies. Blackpig, obviously you refuse to see that the idea is for kids rap, about kids, for kids, things that kids love and do. Not kids trying to make their world adult or rap about their world in adult language. I also think you are being very sterotypical here and it shows that you are not willing to allow something good to come about from the genre you are mocking.

Members zekmoe Posted January 24, 2006 Members Share Posted January 24, 2006 I'll shield my son from most RAP (i.e. the worlds most uninspired, disposable music) as long as possible. He's only 5 , so maybe by the time he's older, it will have faded into the disco fad that it is. I may sound cynical, but really, does anyone put on any 10 or even 5 year old RAP albums and listen to them? Do they ever get anything new out of listening to it again? Doubtful.

I happened to stop by Rush Management (which managed Will Smith at the time - aka Jazzy jeff and the Fresh Prince) just as this came out. They had just gotten a box of promos records and it was being passed around. I thought, boy this looks stupid. But it turned out to be great and nothing like any rap you ever heard. It's appropriate for kids, and not dumbed-down in any way. It's catchy, and the video is great. It put Will Smith on the map. -PL&B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Addix Metzatricity Posted January 25, 2006 Members Share Posted January 25, 2006 zekmoe: That's got to be the most ignorant statement I've heard all week! But you're entitled, and I hold no grudge. B-lips: Maybe I'm wrong, but I think he's looking for a more up-to-date rap thing. Hip-Hop's come a long way since the stylings of the Fresh Prince (but I still love it!) Boooshy: If you were closer, I'd be all about making some kid-friendly rap with ya'! I think the market would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may sound cynical, but really, does anyone put on any 10 or even 5 year old RAP albums and listen to them? Do they ever get anything new out of listening to it again? Doubtful. Disco has some great songs. And yeah, I listen to a whole slew of 10 year old rap albums. And yeah, I do get new things out of it. Just like Disco. Some of the most grooving {censored} is disco. You want killer productions? Lush arrangements? Great songwriting? EW&F is pretty freakin' disco and it totally rocks. I play my children all types of music. Jazz, classical, classic rock, funk, swing, pop, disco, rap, grindcore, thrash, hair metal, doom, surf, more disco, more smokin' jazz, country, oldies, you name it...

Members blackpig Posted January 25, 2006 Members Share Posted January 25, 2006 I'll be the first to admit that as songwriting goes my little raps leave something to be desired. But then doesn't it all? I'd rather entertain kids with something of lasting value. I'm going now because I don't want to hijack this thread and turn it into another anti-rap er, rap.

New rap sells fast, partly by virtue of being new, and then boom, it dissappears, partly by virtue of not being new. Newness is part of the game. Nonetheless, like all music, there's lots of bad rap that deserves to slink away and never return. But like all music, there's also a few gems that stand the test of time. -PL&B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Keny Posted January 27, 2006 Members Share Posted January 27, 2006 I got you covered dude early 80's rap with some 70's funk plus modern overtones here are some of my tunes http://www.kennyruyter.com/old/cowbell_fever.mp3http://www.kennyruyter.com/old/killerbee.mp3http://www.kennyruyter.com/old/timetravellers.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Keny Posted January 27, 2006 Members Share Posted January 27, 2006 oh. the first tune (Cowbell Fever) is off of the album the second two are demo versions that have been redone to perfection. the whole record has about 12 tunes and is still in the process of being finished. Some other titles are Charlie Brown, Ranch Rangers, Star Wars, Porcelain God, Flute Attack, Punk Mexicali and a cover of Low Rider. The only two that may be somewhat questionable is Big assed parade and porcelain god, but they are funny nonetheless. Its called Reel Kill under my alias Gunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members monstermaker Posted January 28, 2006 Members Share Posted January 28, 2006 I'm not sure I'd encourage a toddler to listen to rap on the chance it might lead to an interest in the more profane, violent, racist and disrespectful of women type stuff thats being produced.

The same could be said for any mainstream genre. I'd be much more concerned about my children watching television than listening to hip hop.

Members GeoffonTour Posted January 28, 2006 Members Share Posted January 28, 2006 Writing off a style of music purely based on the vocals & steretypes of the arists will never be anything but naive. There are some awesome songs in the genre, but due to the fact that it's primarily a popular style of music there's also a lot of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
