Yes, their's the goods and their's crap in every genre. Though I can't agree with some of the acts you mentioned- to me Kid Rock is basicly a new Vanella Ice (who's now doing a "Hard Core" act). He's a tremendous stage presance but his music strikes me as disengenuous and bland. It saddens me to think what this guy could be doing. Anyway, it's not really my place to judge anything (and why I'm not going to go any further with my critiques of some of the other bands... what's the point?). You have to realize that for every Guns N' Roses their's a Nelson, for ever Sublime a 311, and for every Busta Rhymes their's a Puff Daddy.

Speaking of Busta, he cut an awesome song with Fishbone on their album Chim Chim's Badass Revenge. It's called "Psychologically Overcast." Not only does he do a respectable job of rapping over Fishbone, but the rest of the song will appeal to the metal in all of us. I'm talking the riff from hell here.
