Have had no interest in hip hop, but much interest in other forms of popular music. Far as I'm concerned, it's about time to come up with a new genre. Hip hop bores me, reminds me of an un-clued-in extended pretentious and narcissistic adolescence (tho there are certain songs that actually have something to say that needs to be said). And then there are many that are about ethnic, gender and racial hatred.
Agree with tiger tho - MOST pop is indeed disposable - tho not all.
Very glad to hear of this. I won't be able to participate personally, as I'll be out of China at the time, but I encourage everybody else to (I hope that does't sound lame). Maybe there's some other way I can help out?
Another reason to allow ALL workers to become trade union members, with none of the bullshit about migrants from rural areas not really being 'workers' because their id cards say they are farmers. Much of china's economic 'success' has been built on the backs of such people - yeah, but...Whose success was that now?
I'm not a health foody but the few meals I've had here have been really good and, yeah, I'll be happy to go back alone to sample all the rest of them. It's also not a bad place from which to people-watch the street below.

Posted byYou pay your workers FIRST - only then do you look for money to pay other debts.
