I understand your position but my point was more about them in their primes. And really I was only talking about that one song. Guru is a legend...
A brief intro for anyone interested, from PBS: Link.
MC Solaar is the master. Nobody in any language has come close to his intelligence, creativity, and word play (a la Duchamp). Because it is in...
Please explain why you feel that way. Nachbar was also star in Europe. The thing that always held him back was his mental makeup. VSpan has a...
Webster's is fine if not overly simplified and general (it is a dictionary, after all) but wiki is a bit all over the place so I don't really...
Not really true. Nihilism is the belief that nothing can be known or expressed and so a nihilist would believe in nothing. Not reject just not...
Everyone in the world is an atheist. Some just choose to not believe in one more God/religion than others.

Francis - there have actually been a decent amount of composers/musicians who have been all or partially deaf. What helped Beethoven was his...
Uhhh...ever heard of the song "Straight Edge" by Minor Threat from...1981?
Uhh...no. There were more than three Classical composersin the 18th Century. But, yeah, I prefer breaking the music into periods or using...
Yeah, "Devil's Trill" is Tartini and I think around 1715 or so...basically late Baroque. Ha ha - still no Classical (assuming I am mostly correct...
