rap
Rap, meaning ‘rhythm and poetry’, is a genre of music that involves reciting words rapidly and rhythmically over an instrumental backing. Rap originates from African American culture, some of its most notable artists being Tupac Shakur, Rakim, Dr Dre, Biggie Smalls, etc. ‘Rhythm’ refers to the flow and beat of the instrumental backing, as well as how deftly the words are recited. ‘Poetry’ refers to the lyrics, usually involving social and/or political issues in addition to personal life stories and experiences. An issue that many old school rap fans take up with rappers nowadays is that they don’t produce nor write their own music, which was a big part of the rap genre. Some claim that this takes away from the background of the genre, and how the lyrics in rap songs were used as an outlet for black people facing oppression in America. Old school fans tend to value the lyrics and the emotional value of rap songs, whereas newer fans tend to value the beat and how successful the song can be. (Note: Not all new rappers are distasteful. For example, Kendrick Lamar, Tink, J.Cole, and others do implement lyrics about issues black people face today into their music.)
The Urban Dictionary Mug
IT WAS MUG! CAME QUICK & SAID THING. HAVE NOT TASTED YET. NOT SMELL BAD, BUT DISHWASHER NONETHE LESS....
Henceforth, I am unable to leave a negative review for this amazing cup.
Good quality, just as pictured. Very pleased with it!
Having my first cup of coffee in the new cup. Good idea to add new terms through individual contributions.
10/10 Looks exactly like the preview. Shipping was fast.
This is for my granddaughter whom I used to call cutie patootie until she found out another meaning for patootie. Then she didn’t like the name so much! This will be a perfect gift for her! She is 16.
Love the cups :) It reminds us of our sweet momma. I thought everyone knew the word "mommicked" but evidently it is an Eastern North Carolina thing...My sisters and I all married Northerner/ Yankees and they had never heard of the word. Thank you for a tender memory.
Cup came in one piece and looks as nice as it does in the picture! Only note is just be mindful of any typos in the description of the definition, they will show up on the cup too! Other than that, no complaints!
This reminds me of the amazing teams i worked in!
great experience, with fast delivery. Thank you!
my grandma loved it!
My grandma is HOOKED
Based mug
This mug makes me happy :) reminds me of so many funny high school memories!
The mug came quickly and we love it!
These mugs are always good. I usually choose the neon green!
The mug is pretty and the writing on it is clear. It is of good quality and it makes me smile.
Well madder nice print. 8 0z cup. I'd prefer a mug but will be ordering 3 more. Just my cuppa tea (or coffee). Americans always make fun of some of the things I say. Recently my brother and I were talking about the Trawna Maple Leafs. I decided to look it up and sure enough there is was Trawna the city I grew up in. Now who has the last laugh.
I ordered pink but got purple, and the text wasn't very clean, but overall, it is a mug.
It was a gift for my sister, who wrote it. She loved it and so did I!
