Can someone please say something controversial. This has been very entertaining so far and I am ready to see some more blood and snot flying. 
When will rap music be less mainstream?
ShadorneYou made me spit my coffee back into my cup reading that - brilliant!What makes it so funny is it is the truth. I have read a few gems on here and that ranks right up there with the funniest. Signing off this post, I have to go back and re... 
When will rap music be less mainstream?
Sit, nice to see someone willing to explore - you won't regret it! Maybe dip your toes into some "trip-hop" this is a kind of chilled out hip-hop and the Ninja Tunes label have been doing this well for a long time, check them out on the internet, ...

Any Michael Bub'le fans.......
I thought talent had something to do with it. Willam Hung is an artist...does he have talent? 
Any Michael Bub'le fans.......
