Zen Arado: there ws a clash between rock and rap back then
szavanna Resident: :)
Zen Arado: don't know how much that was staged
Uns Mistwalker: yes.... this was a great service in that way.
Zen Arado: but rock guys didn't think there ws any music in rap
szavanna Resident: Wikipedia :
szavanna Resident: 

"Walk This Way" is a song by American hard rock group Aerosmith. Written by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, the song was originally released as the second single from the 1975 album Toys in the Attic. It peaked at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1977, part of a string of successful hit singles for the band in the 1970s. In addition to being one of the songs that helped break Aerosmith into the mainstream in the 1970s, it also helped revitalize their career in the 1980s when it was covered by rappers Run–D.M.C. in their 1986 album Raising Hell. This cover was a touchstone for the new musical sub-genre of rap rock, or the melding of rock and hip hop. It became an international hit and won both groups a Soul Train Music Award for Best Rap - Single in 1987.

Clytemnestra Resident: I love fushion music
Zen Arado: yes I didn't realize there was such a gulf between white and black music back then
szavanna Resident: This cover was a touchstone for the new musical sub-genre of rap rock, or the melding of rock and hip hop.
Uns Mistwalker: I do too, when it preserves the spirit of both.
szavanna Resident: rap rock :)
Zen Arado: black guts listened to am and white to FM?
Zen Arado: guys
Uns Mistwalker: yes.
szavanna Resident: loved that Zenji
Uns Mistwalker: I have heard that rise of rap coincided with cuts in school budgets that made music programs in schools close.
Zen Arado: apparently a lot of animosity between the two groups
Clytemnestra Resident: me too , thanks Zen
Uns Mistwalker: so no more intstruments for the kids.
Zen Arado: but it helped both groups

--BELL--

Zen Arado: Aerosmith wasn't doing so well at the time either and it helped them

Uns Mistwalker: "Just Wait" If ever you are feeling like your tired and all your uphill struggles leave you headed downhill if you realize your wildest dreams can hurt you and your appetite for pain has drinken its fill i ask of you a very simple question did you think for one minute that you are alone? and is your suffering a privelege you share only? or did you think that everybody else feels completely at home? [Chorus:] Just Wait..........Just Wait...........Just Wait.......And It Will Come If you think I've given up on you,your crazy and if you think i dont love you well then your just wrong in time you just might take to feeling better Time is the beauty of the road being long i know that now you feel no consolation but maybe if i told you and informed you out loud i say this without fear of hesitation i can honestly tell you that you make me proud [Chorus] If anything i might've just said has helped you if anything i might've said helped you just carry on your rise uphill may no longer seem a struggle and your
Uns Mistwalker: appetite for pain may all but be gone i hope for you and cannot stop at hoping until that smile has once again returned to your face theres no such thing as a failure who keeps trying coasting to the bottom is the only disgrace [Chorus]

Zen Arado: the words in the video

Uns Mistwalker: oh... I didn't watch the video, just listened.
Clytemnestra Resident: not that it doesn't match, so much as detracts from the openness, all encompassing sentiment of the lyrics

Clytemnestra Resident: ah yes
Uns Mistwalker: often with artists, eh.
