    Yeah, let's pretend this is the first generation of weird, quirky musicians lol. give me a break. Even if it was, how does this affect you in any way that you have to get upset on a message board over a grown man's appearance.

    I'm sorry if I insulted your favourite rapper.

    This is a discussion board.

    Lil Uzi is not my favorite rapper (although he's a very good rapper and better than your favorite rapper!). His physical appearance also has nothing to do with his ability as a musician!

    My point stands - plenty of artists over the past ~70 years have done weird s---.

    There are threads discussing Eminem's beard and d--- hair color ffs.

    I think having a 24 million dollar diamond drilled into your forehead is discussion worthy.

    No need to get upset because I called him a r-----, which he is.

    - only severe schizos discuss Eminem's beard and hair color
    - Eminem hasn't had a song as good as Sanguine Paradise since 2002 (and I'm a fan of his past few albums)
    - Discussion worthy yes; there's a way to discuss without coming off as some pretentious "REAL HIP HOP" type of guy
    - r----- is a stupid word to use, for myriad reasons.

    No more outlandish than Flava Flav's giant clock necklace, Paul Wall's grills, Hopsin's fake eye contacts, and ICP's clown look...

    That's a lot of words for "You insulted a rapper I like".

    Ignore my "r----- generation of rappers" comment if that's what upset you.

    Nah...it's just lame. Spotify exists and there's many ways to discover newer acts who aren't your preference compared to the past where the Internet wasn't as huge.

    I don't listen to Uzi much but I've got tons of rappers I like, new and old, on my Spotify in heavy rotation. Radio isn't even thriving anymore which means you won't even hear Uzi's music when you're grocery shopping.

    You can criticize individual acts but lumping a whole generation of rappers together is lame.
