Indeed it is, so why don't you leave Anon? I keed, I keed, you know I love you

I do not love you, because I would not want to be confounded as being of the homosexual persuasion.

Ok I just saw this infamous guy's profile. I have a couple of questions..

First of all, you are drinking, and you're underage. I don't know if you're actually drinking or just holding up the beer can. Also, you have a cigarette in your hand, also illegal for you. What kind of role model do you think you are to the young Armenians who listen to your music? What message are you sending out? I know you weren't raised in the ghetto...so you really shouldn't have much to complain about...so why all the bad behavior?

Also, I notice that every other word in your lyrics is a cuss word. It doesn't really take much talent to cuss and holla and shoot things. Why must you resort to such words in order to show your creativity? Kanye West is the BEST rapper out today. He wears a suit and doesn't use profanity to the extreme. That's talent.


I don't mean to hurt anyone, but please just answer my questions.

If his words and actions were not that way he wouldn't be conforming to the "cool, hardened nigga" facade.

Hmmm, I'm not very familiar with Armenian rap, or rap in general. However, I've heard some of A. Chilla (electonic?), Harry Kistorian, and R-Mean's music. I think the lyrics are kind of weak but I don't have anything to compare them too. I'm wondering if you guys have heard their music and if they're any good. What about that kid named Narek (One-2), Human Beirut, and the guy that calls himself Blind? Also, there is this chick called Surabian (but I think she's more hip hop than anything else). K, that's all I know (wow, I def. raised the average IQ here didn't I? jk).

I haven't listened to any Armenian rap, but I keep hearing about how the lyrics are weak.. I have a feeling this may be because to really do good rap you need to know a LOT of different words.. it sounds silly but it's true, you basically have to memorize the dictionary and know how to insert words where and make it flow and rhyme and not use the same word repeatedly in a verse. Armenians (and any one who immigrates to the U.S.) have a hard enough time learning the regular basic-level language, let alone mastering linguistics to weave dope rhymes. I may be wrong, but that might be the reason why so many of you are complaining the lyrics in Armenian rap is weak.

That said I'm having a kick ass time writing the chorus to my latest song "Space Cadet" now all I need is beats, lol....

Just ask me if you need any punchlines...

Narek (One-2) is actually very good. He's probably THE ONLY Armenian rapper that I'll give props to after hearing the way he raps. His lyrics, flow, and delivery are all good. He just sticks out from the overall picture of Armenian Rap.

Surabian, as a female artist, I would say is ok, but not that great. She needs to perfect her lyrics a little more. They're still sorta weak.

A. Chilla and R-Mean need to fix their accents. Plus they "double up" on pretty much throughout most of the track of any song. They need to get the basics and fundamentals of ryhming down a little more and fix their lyrics also.

I haven't heard of Harry Kistorian, Human Beirut, or Blind. If anyone has a sample of their demos or a song in which they rap in, please feel free to provide it. I would like to hear how they sound.

By the way, what ever happend to armenianrappers.com?
I used to check that sight out periodically to see if Armenian Rap has actually improved, but the website is down now. Anyone know?

[thedebutante]

Cool, thanks. That was very informative. Have you ever checked out notrated.com?
It features a lot of artists and a lot of them are Armenian.

It's sad that Armenian's have to resort to talentless crap like rap, but then again, degeneration is more of the rule, than the exception. How many of these rap "artists" can play any musical instrument, much less know musical notes? My guess is that since most of the masses are themselves knaves, swimming in the pond of ignorance, that they do not know any class or quality, thus it is easy to appease the tastes of the majority, who always as a rule outnumber those of quality.
