If you think hip-hop is “all” about that or that is all it has to offer it terms of content, then I think you don’t know much of the genre or have never taken the time to listen to any hip-hop outside of the trash that people put on the radio. Which is fine, I don’t expect everybody to listen to the genre or like it, but just know not all hip-hop is the ignorant borderline offensive trash played on the radio and in clubs. A lot of it has actual messages and substance.
That would be like me saying all country music is about inbred hillbillies drinking beer in their pickup trucks while smoking Marlboro reds, or that all heavy metal is a bunch of intelligible screaming nonsense with no meaning or emotion behind it…a false uniformed generalization.
EDIT
Just to clarify I am not trying to be hostile or start any kind of negative argument here, I say that because reading back on my comment now it could come off that way, which is not my intention.
LOL So what would happen in a game where Men are overly sexualized, doing sexy poses and such and women are fully clothed, with realistic proportions, doing nothing sexy or suggestive?
when i go to bars or to a night club…thats all they play. thats what people hear in my area. that is what is representing the entire genre for me where i am residing in. we’re a party type area. music with substance and messages are not played because it is not mainstream. it is not what you hear on the radio. you’re preaching to the choir on there being various forms of hip hop. there is various forms of everything. i couldve articulated my post better that i will admit, but i wont take back what i said or apologize for it.
@FengShuiEnergy if mick gordon was the sole cause for orchid not getting her leotard back from KI2 then i say hes a damned fool as well regardless of how talented he is. it makes me say and think “grow up”. its a videogame. be more concerned about how women carry themselves in a real world social setting. there are time and places for where they must dress appropriately, and places where they can walk around in more revealing attire. as for Sadira, i recall there being no complaints unless it was before my arrival to the original DH forums in early 2014.
I do not want you to apologize because I agree with what you just said in this post, I think we are on the same page now. That comment in your post I quoted (to me) implied that you believed that is what all hip-hop is and all it has to offer, it would seem I was mistaken. You are correct though, that IS what represents the genre and is played mostly but I would also like to add that it is played because that is apparently what most people want to hear, at least in a party/club setting.
its all good man, i shouldve been more clear with what i was trying to say! thats all, just a case of mistaken beliefs. but yes, i like the other kinds of hip hop that goes beyond the norm of what we hear. like Deltron 3030, thats an awesome album for me to relax with. “Mastermind” is my fav track off that one and “Proto Culture” since he talks about gaming in that one lol
@TheNinjaOstrich i HATE reggaeton. especially when the jerk singing the song is doing it in a monotone voice just blabbering away with the stupid beat. you sir “triggered” me. and i find that OFFENSIVE. >_>
even MORE reason to be LOL. you are killin me today, but thats what you do with all your goofy BS. here watch this, because its true (it has no bearing on reggaeton, but fuckk that music):
you didnt actually trigger me, i am being sarcastic since it pertains to the original topic of discussion. SJW BS! im too old for that sh!!t man, my skin also far too thick for it. but yes, keep the lols coming bro.
and also yes, the struggle is real for us latino americans. but i think we should continue this minor derail into our bored @ work thread lol.
now, to get back on topic, i wonder what mick wouldve done had he seen Laura’s bonita outfit? or Chun Li’s battle outfit? maybe thats why SF5’s soundtrack is completely left in the dust by KI? HAHA
It’s mostly going to be picked up by let’s players… it won’t be to appealing to women and probably going to be generally panned as a homophobic joke before the first month of the games release is over.
Cammy wears the same thing and on the front end it covers even less than orchid’s. literally only her ■■■■■ is covered and i didnt hear any complaints about her ever. but laura gets booty shorts with her micro bikini sticking out and HOLY SH!ttt stop the presses! obviously ppl dont know what the glory that a brazilian beach is. man, id have 20 kids by now.
