My bad, I've mixed terms and didn't realize it.
To clarify. Where the majority of the supposed song is comprised of talking or shouting, versus a real attempt at singing or allowing instruments/musical renderings to carry the supposed song, I consider it simply "rap" and not music.
In situations where the percentages are reversed, and hip hop tends to be more this way, the supposed song has clearly been the main thrust, and the lyrics spoken or not, take a backseat... I consider this music. Maybe not music I'd enjoy, but music nevertheless.
nevermind what is playing, who wants to make some sweet music with me?

...this is just my perspective on the situation...
I need vodka, now. There is just this urge. But I will not go to the store or I will turn out to be a drunk!

I just wrote it off as "I'm right" and moved on.

Blue is from Canada, Eco. And Canada is a Commonwealth nation. Much more similar to UK than US, FYI. Having lived in all places.

I happen to find Doc delightful. He definitely 'dares to be different' in a way one rarely hears about these days.
