Shyne and Drake are not even Halachically Jewish

Shyne did  a halachic conversion & hangs around with the Belzers here in Jerusalem.

cRap should be illegal just like Islam. It is the biggest promoter of domestic terrorism and denigration in the U.S.

You just listen to the wrong kind. I can point to many good hip-hop songs with honest, clean, Jewish messages...

You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities

Maybe prayer should also be outlawed, as Muslims pray 5 times a day, and Jews are only required to pray 3 times a day...

By your calculation prayer is the biggest promoter of domestic and international terrorism...

I have posted this one before (maybe a few times) but it still ranks among my favorite hip-hop 'Jewish' songs. It utilizes a theme which the great Rabbi Nachman of Breslov made famous. We sing 'Kol HaOlam Kulo (gesher tzar meod)' on Shabbat afternoon after lunch many Shabbatons, which means 'The Whole World Is a Narrow Bridge' and 'The Main Thing is to Have No Fear At All'....

I listened for a second and I heard him say "We be those Hebrews". Why can't they at least do it in real English?

I'm not talking about all rap just cRap like "I piss on that hoe smoking a doobie shooting up &#*@)es" which I have heard likewise in real cRap song lyrics which people will play down the road at ridiculous volumes in front of children

It would depend on the rhyme which is being rapped, I don't particularly recall in which song that line is used but at this point I have heard some incredible rhymes from some of these guys. I have been listening to Nossan Zand from Boston, Mass lately and he is pretty talented.

I surely realize that everyone has different tastes in music, so I don't expect you to like it like I do. My musical background, if you have not heard before, is mainly 80s Rock (Rush, Styx, Yes, Van Halen) and Heavy Metal (Metallica, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath) and I was quite a Deadhead in the 80s (saw the band 40 times). For a long time I refused to listen to any rap because all there was at the time was the 'gansta rap' which I was (like it seems some here) very vocally against. There are still discussions on the Internet from those days (90s) in the 'rec.music.gdead' usenet archives where I was called a 'racist' for being against gangsta rap, but what is interesting is that at that time I was also for 'gun control' which I am firmly against today.

Anyway, don't watch the videos I post if you find them irritating. I find the lyrics mostly inspiring and listen to these songs on my car stereo (with sub-woofer) and they sound great (and not rumbling like those creeps who drive by with distorted speakers).

Hey Muman. Do you think G-d said "don't shave the corners of your beard" instead of your hair, because you're not supposed to shave?

Why do you ask this in this thread? I believe I discussed the mitzvah of 'peyot' which you are referring to.

I believe it says 'the corners of the head' which the sages determined are 'side-burns' on the sides of the head. The mitzvah of not shaving with a 'razor' is an entirely different commandment. The length of this hair has been debated and the way it may be cut is with scissors.

If you like we could discuss it more in the Torah section...

I've developed a liking of Jewish Hip-Hop and know of at least four great Jewish 'rappers'. I do not like any non-Jewish rap because the only thing which is good about it is good Jewish themes.

Some good artists:

Prodezra
Jewda Maccabee
Shtar
Ben Yomin
Nossan Zand

Here are some Shtar songs:

All rappers are pathetic and untalented. Regardless of race and or religion.

Fully disagree. Not every rapper is singing about drugs, money and women. More then enough rappers singing about real life. About problems, about love, about death, about pain. I think it's realy stupid to call ALL rappers regardless....
