New Zealand bans U.S. rappers

US rappers Odd Future banned from New Zealand

So new Zealand does not want us rappers?

Anyone know what the gun laws are like there. Might be a decent place to sound like if the morons completely run the nation into the ground.

Ok, we should ban Lorde. I can't stand her noise and it would save alot of wear on my radio dial..

Actually you can buy suppressors over the counter in New Zealand. They're far from perfect but a long way from being the worst.

I have met many really great folks from New Zealand during my racing involvement. They love to drink beer and run fast cars. They come here for opportunity's like any immigrant. It ain't all that great there.

That is actually music and there are far less run in with the law compared between country music and rap.

I've found people that say they don't like "rap," to be very limited in their understanding of what it encompasses. If you said the stuff played on the radio, well heck, I can understand that. However, rap is so diverse one could probably find something that they'd tap their feet to.

I just turn the channel or turn it off when stuff comes on I don't like. Too bad I can't turn down the stereos of folks' that are thumping at stop lights though.

Seems like they've got a legitimate reason for this if you read the article. I say good call.

I just read the article.... I would be inclined to agree, if the allegations are true.

And how often is that country music or country music with Extremely offended lyrics.

Sure RUN/DMC was music. LL Cool j was music. as a musician I am highly influenced by the blues and I mean the real blues. Mississippi delta style. Not ruining it the way some try to but playing it the way it was mean to be from the heart and soul.

I have no idea how Jelly Roll Morton, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, and Robert Johnson gave way to Eminem, And the rest of these modern clowns.

Great debate technique. They used to teach it on the team when you are concerned about winning always try to get cite. No I don't have any hard stats, but I spend enough time with various media to know its not heard of often ( not impossible ) in country music compared to modern rap.

I don't believe country music had a gang war involved like the west coast/east coast factions of rap were tupac shakur and Notorious Bigg were murdered.
