> NIGGA BE OUT Didn't Muhammed Ali write that one back in the 60s? He was a great
poet, man! The way he was able to take a word and find another word to
rhyme with it was the rarest art, like 'may-ah' and play'ah' - that's great
stuff. He was the first poet to go with the concept of building meaning
around words, instead of using words to describe meaning. What a genius. I
think Muhammed started rap music, but some people still think it could have
been Jack Webb in the movie 'The DI', back in the sixties, where the Marines
would march and sing together, "I don't know but I've been told", and then
they'd respond with something that rhymed with it, all the while marching at
a fast pace without getting out of breath. Maybe it was Jack Webb and
Muhammed Ali together who invented rap music. We should build a memorial to
both of them.
