    Default What did you think of the Culture Show on BBC2?

    I'd like to hear what peoples views are of the Culture show...shown on BBC2 on Sunday about the opening events in Liverpool.
    I have some comments of my own,
    but would like to hear others first!

    I thought it was half decent. Culture Shows tend to concentrate on the unknowns and previosuly unseens so that girl author and the rapper from Toxteth got a good go on it. I liked the footage of Ringo, Wylie and the Farm.

    All in all, I thought it was quite good. Had it been about another city, I'd be tempted to make a trip there.

    That rapper - - - - how awful !!

    that stuff about robbing and crashing your car --- WHY WHY WHY did they let him on ???

    That's ALL we need !!



    Not that I mind rap - but for starters, they could have at least chosen a talented rapper .. and not one that reinforces the sterotypical thieving Scally

    Rap/ hiphop is an american culture, the uk took on so much culture and other stuff from usa, how quickly society forgets, our young people see it as theirs. Still in the uk medias eyes, if u are a rapper or a uk hiphop artist you are onto a winner despite the questionable quality of some acts.

    I like hiphop/ rap (mostly 80's/ early 90's stuff) but it isn't scouse. word

    I don't mind rap. But I like it done well.

    .. and I don't want to hear that stuff about robbing cars in Liverpool - it's not appropriate for the occasion.

    Not talking about this Scouse kid particularly - 'cos he was just emphasising his Scalliness , but in general regarding rap music - I can't stand this thing lately white kids trying to be black

    rap is best done properly by black artists.

    I find it ok if its done well Lindy. I love black music such as r and B, hip hop, etc but when its not done well like this prat we are talking about it looks embarrassing.

    You see this might only be one person's 'act' but we really do have to learn some self respect because we give our enemies so much ammunition by belittling ourselves.

    Tom O Connor recently called on comics to stop putting Liverpool down but I have heard tom himself make disparaging jokes about his native city in the past.

    Rap music was invented by people who can not sing or could not play an instrument. As for the so called rapper who was supposed to be representing the city God only knows. Only a Manc whould have given that clown a place on the bill knowing that everyone from outside would latch onto the 'Car robbing' theme. Once again we shoot ourselves in the foot.
