A funny snake rap song

Me and my friend were looking to see if there were any funny rap songs about the snake industry.


Couldn't find any thing so we made some

Funny that they didn't have any videos, but honestly rap is crap. I hate the fact that people have to curse to try to sound cool. The idea was funny, but just the voice and the lyrics make the song sound stupid. I honestly feel like I just wasted 2:28 seconds of my life that could of been used for something much more useful, like going outside and kill a mosquito or something.

Sorry if I come across rude, but if you were aiming for funny, you should of made a song with some kind of Weird Al parody, then it would of been funny.

i didnt even listen to the song because im on my phone at work.. but i love when people say "rap is crap" (sarcasm). not all rap is crap. most of the stuff on the radio, yes, but then again most stuff from other genres on the radio is too. i listen to all sorts of stuff. a lot of people say all my heavy metal is crap. do i think there is some crap metal? yes. i think theres crap rap too. but just because its not your preferred style of music doesnt make all of it "crap." music is a form of art. using the same logic in regards to visual art, some people may say abstract art is crap. it's not all crap. there is some BEAUTIFUL abstract art out there. you just gotta quit being closed minded and look for it.

For starters, I don't care about your sarcasm, did you want a cookie for pointing it out? Most of the rap in general is crap. They all rap about the same three things with a four added in sometimes: sex, money, drugs and add it the murking this or that person. It's the reason that society has all these moronic kids walking around with their pants off their butt thinking it's a "gangsta" look. It was originated in jail, it's for easy access and meant you belonged to somebody. What kind of music do you think promotes that in 99.9% of the videos. I'll give you a hint because it's not metal, country, alternative. It's rap in case you haven't guessed. It's not about style of music, it's about class.

Sure I liked some of the Bone Thugs & Harmony songs, and Eminem has a decent song or two, but that's about it. The definition of rap is what you see now. Lil' Wayne, Boosie, Sussie, Whoosie and whoever else you want to say. The rap now is way different from the stuff that was recorded in the 90's.

for starters, yes, i would love a cookie if you're offering. i can pm you my address so you can ship it right over. you must be one of those people that also thinks all music with screaming is devil worship.

Wrong again Scotty. I don't like heavy metal, and it's not that I think it's crap, it's just not my type of music. I prefer Staind, 3 Door's Down, Linkin Park, Shinedown, Matchbox 20, Third Eye Blind, 12 Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bush, Collective Soul, Creed, Crossfade, Evanescence, Disturbed(Can get loud in some songs), Metallica, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Seether.

Nice job trying to categorize me though, but don't quit your day job.

Also, to top it off. Before I even clicked on the thread it had 56 views and 0 replies. You know what that means? If not I'll put it simple and blunt. Other people thought the same exact thing I did and just didn't want to say it. I on the other hand have no problem speaking my mind and for the people!!!

I bet some people even felt like they wasted 5 secs of their lives by just reading the original post and that's without even watching the video, that's what 56 views and 0 replies tells me.

EDIT:
Oh wait. It's at 87 views and the only replies are you trying to defend that terrible thing you call a form of "art". Also if you want to get technical, all they're doing is rhyming and saying words. Maybe a voice change thing here and there if you wanna get "Chopped & Screwed"(LMFAO). You want art? Listen to Disturbed, David Draiman, how he changes his vocals and without a stutter or a loss of a word, that's art. Art is seeing somebody playing a guitar and singing and sounding good, having a person in the background playing drums and other instruments while the singer is focusing and staying on track, that's art. You know what rap is? Somebody saying stuff really fast and then adding a beat, it's not art, it's a joke.

This is a great example of art:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JLpQ2Xyh_w
That's Aaron Lewis from Staind, live while playing a guitar and singing that song in an amazing way. Skip to 5 minutes for the music.

Rap is crap? Every song raps about the same things? You're wrong. Most of the stuff on the radio isn't rap, it's pop IMO. I'm a metal head to the grave, but i can respect all genres. Every genre has good and bad stuff, don't generalize like that, it makes you look like a fool.
Now listen to these songs and tell me rap is still crap.

Rap still crap? If you honestly can't relate to any of these songs then you've lived in a bubble lol

I never said I couldn't relate to some stuff in some songs, I'm sure we all could. I listened to one of those, mainly because the connection here is terrible and with it raining it's not helping. I don't like it. Rap is still rap at the end of the day and the way the tempo of the music and the words are portrayed is what I don't like. That's why I knock the whole genre down, because I don't consider it music. Music is an art to me, and rap lacks that.

Now like I said earlier, growing up I listened to Bone Thugs & Harmony because they had some great songs, but most of them I didn't like. Sure while some songs may have good lyrics, usually they've also added a ton of curse words which just makes it stupid.

Who are you to decide what is and isn't music lmao??? I hate country. To me it all sounds the same. Some guy strumming on a guitar talking about tractors and beer and the hot blond in her daisy dukes... but even i can respect that its still music. It's just how the artists choose to express themselves.

You don't like rap because they talk about drugs, sex, money and killing people? The bands you listed all have songs about that stuff. I saw you listed metallica and right off the bat "master of puppets" comes to mind... Hmmmm, what do you think that songs about?! "For whom the bell tolls".... What about that album they had... titled... "Kill Em All".... Lmao

EDIT: curse words offend you? Have you heard "its been awhile" by staind? Oh my all that swearing he does! :o

Every single song isn't about the same thing, or let's say half of them. Country is far from the same thing, yes a lot of it is about love but it takes a hell of a talented person to actually sing then just say random words into a microphone then have a beat added after. Or let's say some rap to a beat playing in their ear. It doesn't qualify as music.

I mean really:

My lyrics can be hysterics and no I don't need 'em
I take my shoes off my feet but leave the socks on chem
Now that my words rhyme dawg
I'm gon' disappear like dat fog
cha herd me playa?
I've neva been much of a rava.

Does that make me an artist now because in about a minute I threw rhyming words together? Yerrr I'm "Gangsta"..

Really, who are we kidding here?

EDIT:
Wait, it's not rap yet, I forgot to curse in it.

EDIT #2:
Wait, I forgot my teeth. Let me take this aluminum ferl from my gum and wrap my teefh up so I can sport Platinum. Chea. Now I'll twist my hat to the left side between front and all the way left and I'll nod my head and raise one hand point my finger straight up and sway my hand like i'm nailing a hammer. Then to even more effect my gangsta rap I'll bend one knee but instead of bending it straight I'll do the gangsta left bend. Who dat?

Just because you don't get it doesn't mean it isn't music or the lyrics don't have meaning. It's called symbolism lol...

Also, YOU'RE A HYPOCRITE! Your music has swears, violence, sex and drugs in it too. I just pointed it out. You're talking about rap as a wholeeee genre, by using specific examples. So can i generalize and talk about the music you like in "genre" form too? You like metallica so can i talk about metal in general? Metal is full of sex/drugs/violence/swearing. I could find you thousands of examples lol

I'll cut the crap and say it's all music. Lyrics do not define the type of song; (except religious music) songs are organized into genres based on instruments and styles. My ears are open from heavy metal to electronic to rap.
I do like rap, and I'm an avid listener.
However, with all due respect, this video sucked.

I'm not a hipocrite. I said all rap is about would be the same thing. I know some of the songs talk about stuff like that, but it's not the whole genre. Compare rap to any of the stuff I listed and look at the difference in lyrics. Actually you said the perfect thing Mike, Symbolism, it's what rap stands for that's crap and should be abolished before it does anymore damage to society. At least metal is still an art, and takes talented people to do it, and on top of that at least they can spell. I'm not saying that metallica doesn't have songs about killing, Everlast does too, in the song So Long.

Red Hot Chili Peppers in Under the Bridge is referring to drugs, so is Bush in Come Down as well as others, but at least the way they use doesn't make it sound like garbage.

You can rap without having a curse word every 5 words, and you could rap without having your pants halfway down your legs and without having all fake teeth, 28" rims, walking around with guns, talking with ignorance and being a "symbol" that turns that genre into garbage. Look at the difference between the people who are the face of rap now versus the 90's. I wouldn't of called it crap or garbage in the 90's. Yes, it wasn't the best, but it wasn't garbage. Vanilla Ice was rapping in what year was it, 80 something?

I've already stated that I can't help it if you don't understand the symbolism lol. Just because you don't get it, doesn't mean millions of other people don't. So the way rappers present themselves bothers/offends you too? Is that what it's really about? Pants around their ankles? At least they wear pants! When the RHCP wore only socks on their doodles i found that performance to be pretty offensive!

Don't like the fact that rappers don't spell correctly? Have you read the names of some of the RHCP's albums?
Freaky Styley
Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Californication
Stadium Arcadium

Since you're using such specific examples with rap i'll use the example of Kid Cudi making a whole album with no swears in it. WZRD. Peaked at #3 on the billboard top 100. Rapper, whole album, no swears...

I've disproved literally every excuse for hating on the genre that you've come up with. Your argument is invalid.

Neal, I really think you could stand to watch Bambi again and take notes from Thumper. "If you can't say anything nice, don't say nothin' at all."

He doesn't like that because "nothin'" isn't a real word. Real stuff uses real words. Also in bambi they kill bambis mom. No violence for Neal either!

You haven't disproved anything Mike. I never said every single person was perfect. Hell, you can even base it off 75% of the people in the genre. Music is an art, rap is not an artist and if you want to consider it an art then that's on you. With that being said, my little "rap" I did in a minute makes me an artist since I made it up all by myself and I can sing it too, and add a pencil and tap a little beat on it. The truth is that didn't make me an artist, because it was pure garbage, exactly what 99.9% of rap is. I'm not saying they don't have a few decent people in that genre, but the genre is general is junk, garbage, sounds like crap. Do I like the way that they portray themselves? No. I first off didn't even know about RCHP and the sock thing, but is that how they walk around all the time? Nope. But can you guess what genre 99.9% of the so called "artists" do? I'll give you a hint, 3 letters and one is a vowel. I don't know who Kid Cudi is or WZRD, because I don't like rap and what it stands for.

Look at the people who listen to the type of music, then compare it to how they act. Now ask anybody on here what they associate with the word: Alternative. Then Heavy Metal. Then Country. Then Techno. Then Rap.

It's all what the genre stands for. Sure each of them all have the bad, but let's compare percentages here?

Rather than delete this entire thread I will let it stand for now so you can debate you musical differences however a reminder here, also I should not have to since most who have participated in this thread have been around for a while and know the rules regarding language.

Ignorance isn't an excuse. Once you figure that out it'll open a wholeeeee new world of opportunities and new experiences for you lol.

I'm a metal head but if you saw me you wouldn't necessarily know that. Well, maybe you would, since apparently you know everything there is to know about anything. :rolleyes:

Ok i'm done. Pretty sure i've already thoroughly destroyed your argument and now your grasping at anything here lol...

what about the rappers that produce their own music and create their own beats, or paint pictures and vivid stories with their words? if that takes no talent or skill, it shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes to throw something together real quick that'll impress me. go ahead. i'll wait. :)

Sure, I'll watch that. In the meantime you read the part of the constitution that says something about freedom of speech. Sure, I probably shouldn't of said anything, but I only spoke for the people who didn't want to say anything. I don't like ignorance and I associate the symbol of "rap" with that.

There are many things I shouldn't of said. I was in Sub-way with a guy in front of me with his pants hanging half way down his legs. I didn't have to tell him to pull them up, nor did he have to respond "I'm bout to flash out". Nor did I have to reply: "Do what you think you have to do, but I promise you'll eat concrete." Now the whole thing could of been avoided by me not saying anything, but it could of further been avoided had he actually used his belt the proper way it should be used. I'm in a store about to eat food, and that's the last thing I want to look at.

Then I probably shouldn't have told a kid walking out of wal-mart with his pants off his butt to pull his pants up. That it originated in jail and it meant you were somebody's b. The fact that he was with his girlfriend and his mom made it worthwhile though, especially when she slapped him the back of his head and told him to pull his pants up.

The thing is, I say what needs to be said, or what others may not want to say. I don't care if people look at me like I'm the bad guy, but I utilize my freedom of speech.

BTW Mike, I don't care that he used the word nothin'.

I can crash my car into a bridge, doesn't mean i should. I can make myself look like an ass by exercising my first amendment rights, doesn't mean i should. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should haha.

My point is this dude just posted this for ppl's enjoyment, it was just for fun. There was ZERO reason to just pointlessly ruin things for him. Buzzkill much?

Yea, I was pretty done when I destroyed you crying about that infraction awhile back. Sad story really. I'm not going to argue with you anymore Mike. It's pointless because everybody here knows you like attention.

Why does it have to impress you, you're not the difference maker between deciding if I'm an artist or not. The raps that the rappers do doesn't impress me, regardless if you think it's talent or skill. Who can't create their own beat? It doesn't have to sound good, a beat is a beat. You want me to paint you a picture or a story with my words? Okay, here it goes.

i woke up very early in the mornin'
da clock said 8 30 an i be sorin'
when i sat dizown at da table very shortly after
i ate some cereal and drank milk then i was faster
cuz it fill me wit' energy
now i'ma winna g
now it be half past 12 on the clock which is on da wall
i've got a sore throat, so i'mma take dat hall
then once it kick-in
i'ma eat fried chicken
fo dinna i'm thinkin what i'm gon' eat
i still got a bucket of chicken with dat white meat

There. I just painted you a vivid picture and from that you can tell I woke up at 8:30 am, then shortly after I ate cereal and milk and that gave me an energy boost then I had a sore throat, so I took a hall. After it kicked in, I had some fried chicken(Popeyes). Then for dinner I ate left-overs from lunch which happened to be white meat(breast & a wing) because I had a 4 piece combo. I can get more vivid, and who can't throw a chorus. Now according to your artist statement, I'm now a rapper, woohoo!! It doesn't matter if you don't like it or it doesn't impress anybody, because everybody doesn't like a singer or a rapper, and that person doesn't impress every single person.

All I'm reading is blah blah blah.

Neal, give it up and stop ruining threads.

I know what his intentions were. As for posting for peoples enjoyment, that would be up for debate because it just irritated me more then entertain. Now if he did it with his actual voice, it may of been funny. The whole chopped & screwed thing isn't working though. That may of been the main reason I said something. I wasn't trying to be a buzzkill, but clearly nobody else had found it to be funny.

Anyways, like I said, if he did it in his actual voice it may of been funny then. I can honestly tell you with 85% certainty that the only reason I said something is because of the "digital voice".

I'm glad that's all you're reading blah blah, lol. I'm not ruining a thread, I'm simply debating on a thread on a public forum. But I will stop because I'm heading to sleep because of the time difference here.

So if artists auto tune their voice then it's not real music...? 85% of the time...?

Did I say that? NO. Read what I said. I said I'm 85% sure that if he didn't do the chopped & screwed(digital editing) then I wouldn't of said anything. I know artists fine tune their voice. But there is a difference between making it sound better or making it sound slow motionish.

Anyways Mike, I thought you were done with it? Seems similar to when you said you were done fussing about that whole infraction thing and then you kept on, lol.

No. I said by your definition since you call rappers artist I'm now considered an artist, because I made a rap and a beat and what not.

I still don't consider them artist and never will.

Regardless, I'm done with the topic though, because in the end it comes down to this: You have your opinion and I have mine.

We could have avoided this whole thing if you stated your points like this instead of shoving it down everyone's throat like what you were saying was 100% right rather than what it actually was, an opinion. I'm not sure if you mean to or not, it just comes across that way.

LOL all I did was post a satirical rap song about the snake industry and some body goes insane because they don't like that kind of music. Well that's great I don't like miley cyrus but that doesn't mean I go talk smack on every post that involves her. If you don't like it don't listen to it GG

Blah for you having to make me answer you, lol. I'll say this. When I say something Mike, regardless if I say it's my opinion or not, that's how everything should be taken. Because what I say doesn't make a law, nor what you say. Anything anybody says at any time is their opinion. You and the other guy just assumed that what I said was right or that I was trying to make it seem like I was right, and that's why this whole thing got blown out of proportion. I was simply saying what's music and what's not, I can't speak for every single person and I can only speak for myself. Now I know without a doubt everything that I said a lot of people feel the same way. It's also their opinion.

It's like if I said Obama is a horrible president. At this point probably about 90% of the people in America would agree with me, but that doesn't make it true. Who's to decide if he's a bad president or not? Nobody can. It's all going to be a matter of opinion. I personally can't stand him, and I'd pee on him if I wouldn't get arrested.

EDIT:
@OP, in the end you know who gets the gg? Me. Do you know why? Because that video is completely removed from existence on this forum. Now, GG. :D

"Delivery" is something you either have, or don't have, apparently lol.

Whether you're a rap fan or not, I think we can all agree that it's tricky to rock a rhyme that's right on time. It's tricky.

What do you think people associate snake keepers with? Do you really think everyone knows we're in this game because we actually are scientifically fascinated with them, not because we have them as a crutch to our supposedly huge ego?

To me, there is simply no purpose to have such an animal as a pet. I know it can demonstrate how tough and fearless you are and attract the ladies, but does watching a live mouse or rat squeezed and eaten get anyone excited?

Face it, stereotyping something is non-scientific; it's the worse face of anything. Saying rappers drag their pants on the ground and shoot everyone, or that metalheads worship satan is about as accurate as saying all Jamaicans smoke, or that all white people are oppressive, rich people.

All this bull spit. Where is the video?

Oh that's weird. The first post shows Neil talking about how rap is crap.

I wasn't basing what I said off stereotyping. It's called opinions and we all have them. The video was removed anyways so no point in carrying on.

Is there a way I can search for this video off-site? So I can see what all the hubbub is about? Maybe just the search terms and what site name it's posted on?

I am a consenting adult who wishes to view this type of offensive, foul languages content.

Okay, so I'm hesitant to enter into this apparent war-zone but I'll give it a whirl.

I think it's kind of... ignorant, I guess, to classify a whole genre as "crap". Everyone has preferences and there's not a right or wrong... Trust me, sometimes I wish there was, because if it were up to me, we would have the power to smite people for liking Beiber, Cyrus, and One Direction. Talk about bleeding from the ears. But the entire reason we have a whole variety of music is because everyone has different tastes. A taste, a preference, is not a science. It's an opinion.

I think this has escalated past where it should be. It's useless to argue about whether or not an entire genre of music is crap, because someone somewhere enjoys it. And I've yet to see and scientific way to figure out whose opinion is superior... can you pull a study for me?

I don't have an agenda here. I love alternative and contemporary Christian, some country... but I used to love rap (well, mostly Eminem and Fort Minor... still pretty good; you actually might like some Fort Minor songs, Neal. Never got into Lil Wayne or whatever... I PREFER my lyrics to have some sort of substance to them, but there's a time and a place for everything [Except Beiber. The time and place for that is never and in the trash. Just kidding. Kind of. Not really]) Anyway. There are some artists or specific songs that are good in EVERY genre. I mean I kind of can't stand techno, but I've heard a cool song or two. As a rule I don't care for pop, but I gotta admit, I dig Maroon 5, Pink, and Katy Perry.. sometimes.

I don't know why this exploded. You can simply say YOU don't LIKE a certain genre of music. I get the screaming impression of "ignorant degenerate" from anyone sagging pants or slurring words all over the place, but I don't know that for sure, and I don't tie that concretely with a genre of music and let it determine what I listen to.


tl;dr : stupid argument on both ends, music is an opinion, you can't speak as an authority on it beyond your own personal likes- and it should be worded as such. Most genres of music have cursing, sex, drugs, or violence SOMEWHERE- under what conditions you find it tasteful is your opinion as well.

Okay Neal, you cannot stereotype people who listen to rap/hip-hop. 90% of all music I enjoy is Hip-hop based. I do not walk around killing people, doing drugs, or degrading woman. The rappers I listen to do not even rap about this. I am a state worker with the DEM with a Masters in Enviormental Economics. I enjoy rap because I can relate to the music and rap is based off poetry. An average person can not rhyme and make beats that people will buy and listen to. Rapping takes a lot of skill. And I agree that rap on the radio is mostly garbage but not all of it. I listen to a lot of artists that are not mainstream because they do not promote violence or degrading of woman and drugs. Your statement "all rap is garbage" is your own opinion since it is a art if you agree or not.

neal, sorry: you lose.

nobody likes stereotypers. look what stereotypers have done to our reptile hobby.

I actually don't loose Geek. I can just as easily stereotype you as a kid who was bullied in school. Rap is crap and I'll say it again time after time. I never said all the songs are crap, but in general it's crap. They have a few good songs, I can think of 3-4 off the top of my head.

I tell you what though Geek, if you don't like my beliefs or that I stereotype rap with mostly the punk kids you see blaring their music with the bass that rattles their car, sag their pants and that 95% of the ones that do sag their pants have the literacy of a 6 year old then I tell you what. Come to Louisiana and change my opinion/beliefs by "talking" to me. Otherwise stop crying, be a big boy and let the thread die. Then go sag your pants so you can be somebody elses property. Ok? Ok thanks.

Oh yea. Rap is crap. :D
