Shwayze And Cisco For Dlc

[cutley2626]

Instead rock music every week for dlc why don't we get some different stuff like music from the new rapper Shwayze. Check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hY1rbOM7vbg and ["corona and lime"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFf-PdGdRPY[/URL]

wrong thread

[Dubaskin]

Belongs in Ultimate Setlist forum.

But the reason we don't is because:
1. This is Rock Band, not every music genre Band.
2. Rap is terrible. It's not even music. Just poetry, and bad poetry at that.
3. No.

[cutley2626]

this isnt just rap music its amazing rap music

[NX013]

So basically its the best of the worst genre?

All of those reasons suck.

See, I can make generic statements without any basis too.

To the OP. I think you're crazy. Nah, you're Shwayze. Seriously though, not Shwayze, keep the mainstream stuff to GH and give us some real hip hop. And this should go in the Ultimate Setlist discussion.

Haha agreed

[JJrooster]

I thought you meant Patrick Shwayze and was still disappointed anyway.

[smith5879]

Oh my god more crap about rap. Yeah I would just love playing repetative bass lines and drum tracks. :rolleyes:

[cutley2626]

your only reason for not wanting Shwayze in rock band is because its called rock band? guitar hero's called GUITAR hero but it still has other intruments in it....

This is not Guitar Hero... THIS... IS.... ROCKBAND! :p

[cutley2626]

who cares about the name

I would totally buy "She's Like the Wind" as DLC!

3. Rap music sucks.
4. Rappers can't sing, they just talk some words and act all gangster-like crap.
Very uncool.

Well, the track has enough parts for everyone, but I still wouldn't want to play it. It's kinda dull for everyone except the vocalist. A rappy song could work (Sabotage, Epic), but it should have more for everyone. And the guitar part really reminds me of Low (Like Being Stoned.)

I think it inspired me to buy a real guitar AND drumset this summer, so yes. :cool:

[guitaranddrumgod1978]

I'm ok with rap being part of the game, BUT, I think it has to be a rap song that would fit well within the game. Maybe the Roots or something similar.

I used to listen to rap a lot, back in the days of 2Pac, Biggie, etc. (Wow, I suddenly feel old. :) )Nowadays, it seems that all rap is the same and it's all about a hook or a beat and some dude talkin' about how much jewelry he's got or some other bs.

Again, I don't see anything wrong with a rap song being available as DLC. To me, it's no different that country. I'm not a big fan of either genre, but if it was a song I liked and fit within the game, I don't see why not. Those videos weren't available, so I can't speak to whether or not I would buy it as DLC.

My 2 cents. Keep the change. :D

I fully endorse this.

Some rap is not half bad.

[cutley2626]

finally someone who doesnt spazz out because of a simple suggestion

[guitaranddrumgod1978]

I've had this discussion with others on here before. People are so ****ing anal retentive about the name of the game. Yes, I understand the game is called ROCK BAND. I wanted this game as soon as I read about it.

No, I don't want a bunch of ****ty rap songs on here. *Especially the disc. I believe it should be DLC* But, for people to be against the idea strictly based on the name of the game is stupid. Basically, people who use that argument really mean that they can't stand rap, therefore it shouldn't be on the game. I listen to all types of music, and I never dismiss something without hearing it or strictly because I don't neccesarily listen to that genre.

My top 5 bands, in order are:

1. Dave Matthews Band (R.I.P. Leroi)
2. Red Hot Chili Peppers
3. Tool
4. Outkast
5. Pink Floyd

Sorry about the rant, but I would just like to see people use reasoning for their responses, rather than bash something just because they don't like it.

thank you...
