i don't think people who write and/or produce hip hop is lazy. i do actually consider them artist, but it drives me fricken nuts when they are introduced as musicians...
unless you actually physically play an instrument, you are not a musician.. if all you do is sing you are not a musician. ...if you spin turntables you are not a musician.... if you are a drummer, well then you hang out with musicians (joke).... musicians create music through instruments, not pre-recorded music... if rappers want to be considered musicians, then go pick up a 1.79 kazoo or mouth harp, and throw some of them tracks in your mix, now you're cooking with oil....

I always invite guitarists to take a seat behind my drums and I pick up the guitar. Something miraculous happens. They realize they stink, and that the drums are more of an instrument than the guitar, (which I have been playing for 20 years)...The joke is on them.
Artistry is artistry, musicianship and DJ are not in the same category.

nothing better than musical dick measuring.
Music is music. You might not like it, but it's still music. Comes in many forms. go listen to 'Hot Poop' or 'The chrome-plated megaphone of destiny' by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and tell me if you think it qualifies as music. It does. I'm not really into most rap or hip-hop music, but I respect the guys who do it and do it well, I respect the technicians creating interesting beats and I think it's just as much music as anything else is. craft is craft. Get over yourselves.

Boy that'd really prove your point! How bout we put you behind a pair of turntables and mixer so we can prove that DJing is harder than playing drums!

Come work from home and care for a 3yo girl too, while I play drums, ROB. How'd you like that?
Yeah, you're making zero sense.

Yeah, you're making zero sense. Try moderating a site with the likes of Pehawk, Zeb, Largent80, Peaches. Drums are for kids. Any 3 year old can bang on things.
