    I am not sure if it is because I keep misunderstanding you, but no one can be this thick headed. Thus I shall now explain, or try to explain, even though I know it will not matter because you will skim it and repeat yourself using new words with the same old meaning: "If it ain't mine, it ain't fine".

    Blues is the groundstone to nearly all rhythm music we have today. Rock, metal, early electronica, a lot of pop etc. The whole music genre happened because a lot of people were oppressed, hungered for more, lived in violence and such. The songs were darker, the guitars more aggressive (Which the Beatles took on a new level, and after them Black Sabbath. Black Sabbath is basicly just Blues with distortion). Yes, playing a good Blues takes skill, but comparing it to the ability to make lyrics? No, you can't compare it. Say there was in the year 1995 50.000 rap groups that tried to make it big. We only know around 20 of them. Why? Because they were special, because they took this new genre and turned it into something you haven't heard before. It could be their voice, their beats or their meaning in the text.

    NWA got famous upon shouting "FUCK tha' Police". Wu-Tang Clam got famous by rapping "Shame on a Nigga who try to play games on a Nigga". A lot of diversion, a lot of new talent arose. Mostly black people that lived in the slums, with no jobs and in gangs and such. This very aggressive tone it got, where it went from "Yo hoe suck my dick" to open gang wars because of the lyrics, I find amazing. But to find it amazing you have to understand the culture behind it. Something you clearly do not.

    The culture behind hip hop and rap is what is holding it all together. Think metal has culture, with churchburnings and KISS? Fuck that. The wars in the 90's, West side vs. east side. Artists like Dr.Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eazy-E, were so very ahead of their time that it almost hurt. But they made it happen, they continued to wage this war over words, war in lyrics that ended in war on the streets until' a truce was made. And after the truce was made, to celebrate, they made countless songs together, groups mixed across the coast. The culture behind hip hop is fucking amazing.

    I've tried to explain it. You can take your fantastic argumentation skills and hit them down, but I tried. Jesus.
    Stop trying, Ziru.

    It's not worth it.

    It's changed a tad bit over the past few images because of new programes / patience.
    The style I'm trying to stick to is of the picture of Golden Dragon; as close to the show as possible, because it's what inspires me to draw in the first place.

    You put too much emphasis on culture. Culture is old hat; It's dying. I say let it, it allows new things to develop. People holding onto their precious culture is holding the world back. White people insisting on keeping their heritage, black people theirs, asians theirs. The past is emphasized too much and therefore holds "cultures" as a whole back. They focus on their past and are blind to the future. They hate the notion that their culture could die out, and for good reason, if I considered my "culture" and "heritage" to be important, I would be terrified of that notion. But I don't care. It's not important if you want to move forward.

    It's interesting to read about old cultures, sure. Continuing to practice them is foolish though.
