What do you mean by ridiculous though?
Benny you can't be serious? Tommy Lee Sparta, if he was a horrorcore rapper from the deadest dustiest part of the American midwest you'd be unable to take him seriously

with the masks and the fact that he's called "Uncle Demon" or even the way his growls sound when he switches between them mid bar? cmoooon man

@Benny B i'm sorry i have to repeat it THIS GUY?

you can't see how ridiculous he is, yes i get it for yard this is the most obscene shit cause deeply christian country so what we might see as tacky is seen as rappers dabbling in and making devil music(there's people over here who get all up in a tizzy about J Hus and them saying bonsam and dat) but like man sounds like Freiza off Dragonball Z on parts of that tune.

I didn't say he wasn't 'ridiculous' I just wanted to see what you meant by ridiculous. Thing is dancehall is often 'ridiculous', always has been. Alkaline and Vybz Kartel are also frequently ridiculous (and tacky). Sparta's a bit too much for you, fair enough I suppose, he's not for everyone but I think he's a genius.

And the horrorcore stuff is just one side to him really, albeit the side that catches most attention.

Forget about the US, you'd be slating him if he was from the UK till kingdom come. Just look at everyones views on Russ here.

I don't know, I've never knowingly heard Russ or know anything about him, I haven't really listened to any UK music for years. Tempa T is awful.

I don't mind Tempa T. hes very of his time, wouldn't call him awful, there are much worse offenders. Devlin?

LOL so there's a 'debate' that I'm apparently disqualified from because I think Tempa T is awful, on the dancehall thread. What the fuck are you on about? Actually, don't answer that.
