Maybe wrote:Firstly, thanks for the awesome answer. It's been something I've been thinking about for a while but haven't fully understood (I'll probably hit you up with other questions relating to the subject). Me and a friend have been thinking about starting a transition for the sake of our health. I like meat, but it's something I feel that I can live without if it'll help my body. I mean, I'm in decent shape for my size, but I feel unhealthy. It's hard to explain, really, but I'm sure you get what I'm saying. I've actually been meaning to ask you about this for a long while, but it always ended up slipping my mind in the last minute.

Another quick question:

Why do you suggest completing the metamorphosis with veganism, as apposed to just sticking to vegetarianism?



I get what you're saying. I think a lot of people feel that way but either don't admit it to themselves or even realize they feel that way to begin with.

I would suggest going vegan over going vegetarian just because I feel it's a better path to take. I kind of just threw that bit in there because it would be nice if the world had more vegans haha. I know it's not for everyone though, so the odds it would work for another person are pretty low. It's a path that's a lot harder for people to follow and is pretty unaccepted by society as a whole. It's extremely easy for me to follow, but was definitely difficult at first (because I had no idea what I was doing). The longer you follow a specific eating style, the easier it is to stick with. The more I learned about veganism, the more I was taken in by it. People around me thought it was a "phase", but it was definitely wasn't. It certainly was a lifestyle change though.

I feel very accomplished. Thank you (and everyone else) for helping me reach this point. My next goal is 250 pages.








Actually, it isn't. That's impossible. I'm just curious to see how long this thread can live now that I've reached page 15.

It's possible, but no one really shows interest in mine.

I guess it would be alternative hip hop? I'm never sure what genre something falls into. I usually refer to it all as hip hop, but with different qualities. For example, King Gordy, who is widely recognized as "horrorcore" is still classified as hip hop on my ipod.

No. I should have phrased that differently. What I meant to say was, it seems like there isn't as many people interested in mine as there are in others. At least not consistently, but it is what it is, it's no big thing.

Fuck watching monkeys in a barrel I prefer a planet of great apes

Just want to thank you again for all the information. Maybe you can help me make the transition in the near future? For now, I'm starting with removing red meat from my diet to make things easier.


Anyway, to help you fulfill your goal: What would you say is the most important aspect of Hip-Hop?

I'm more than willing to help in whatever way I can. Eliminating red meat is a great first step, but it may be difficult. I'm pretty sure you'll be able to do it no problem though, especially if you're set on doing it.


I'm not too sure how to answer this. I want to say that all aspects are important, because everything seems to be required in some fashion to make the music enjoyable. My favorite aspects are creativity and intricate rhyming. Flow is pretty important too. I can't give this question a straight answer haha.
