Good lead guitar player. The thing that differentiates this group from rap is originality. There's no originality in rap other than the "lyrics". It's all the same simplistic, repetitive, downbeat, and the rappers all have the same angry, bad-ass look on their faces, make the the same aggressive hand gestures, and walk around the stage grabbing their d*cks.
My Dad thought Deep Purple were horrible...no talent at all...disgusting hippies. He called it noise. Many adults did back in the 60's and 70's.
I get it, you hate rap.
