    Default Rapper Coolio dead at 59


    Whilst not a big fan of the rap genre, I do believe that Weird Al's parody "Amish Paradise" was better than the original.

    RAP........

    Whilst I don't wish death on anyone, my feelings about RAP border on murderous....

    RIP...I guess...

    I prefer singing... not speaking rhyming lines.

    RAP to me.... is CRAP misspelled.

    However, an artist is an artist in their respective genre.

    If their music brings enjoyment to others... it's a good thing.

    Some rap is very clever. Though, like most here, it's not my favourite genre. Gangster's Paradise was one of the better examples of that genre. RIP Coolio.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    +1 for the Weird Al version
    Sorry Coolio man, RIP dude.

    Got me spending the evening going through all Weird Al's hilarious videos on YT, wasn't aware he made so many and more proof that not all rap is bad:
