I followed instructions on how to downgrade my iTunes to 10.7 from 11 and I lost all of my play counts and ratings and playlists. These are very important to me and I would rather not do it it manually. Is there a way to sync the music off my iPod onto the PC, keeping all the playlists, play counts and ratings?

Yesterday I turned the computer on and the screen was black for about 15 minutes. Then the little mouse icon appeared and finally the page where you choose the user. Then when I finally logged in for the next ten minutes nothing was opening and responding. It was annoying.

How do I fix this?

I'm 14, so born post 'Pac's death, and was wondering if it was really that bad for the fans. I've spoken to Uncles and parents about who is better, Biggie or Pac, and most of them love one and hate the other.

I like both, but was it that bad that west coasters hated Biggie, Nas and Jay-Z and the easties hated Death Row?

Not in the sense of "I'm back ni99a!" as ad lib, but is there something wrong about the fact Eminem can't say it but Rick Ross can threaten to kill them, or is it just me?

I'm 14 and I wanna make a youtube video dissing him and Young Money. it sounds stupid, but would you watch it if the hook (cuz if you want to talk to idiots, talk in their language) went like this?

Your a millionaire don’t give a ****

I’ll be still in the chair when you try to kick up dust

You ain’t feeling me here or you’re not pissed enough

**** Young Money I’m killing ‘em yeah

And then a bit of the verse went like this?

I’m killing with words, lyrically murked

You feeling this curse of some syllables burst

I can’t stand to work to hear you walk on planet earth

So you get planted in the earth cuz literally, my hostility’s worse

You’d still have been served back in the days of Go DJ

Cuz I have no leeway of hearing words that don’t fit in a verse

Thoughts?

NO WEEZY STANS!

Lyrically, it is almost as good a Paid In Full, with more internal rhymes and funnier punchlines. I think that it is overshadowed by Rakim unfairly. What do you think?

BQ: Run or DMC? Who's better?

Listening to Sir Lucious Left Foot and everytime he says B-I-G I think of Biggie. So who is better, in order. I haven't heard Big L. Should I have? What should I listen to?

I know he did it, but why was it pointed at his chest? And how do you 'accidentally' pull the trigger?

My favorite album of all time VS. what is often referred to as the best. I personally wasn't feeling Illmatic, but that might be because I'm 14 years old and haven't developed at taste for poetry yet. They are both classics.

I feel Stillmatic was better than Illmatic, but only just.

Stillmatic VS. The Slim Shady LP

BQ2: Is Watch The Throne better?

I love him, but I want to know his best verse (even if it was ghostwritten) and best beat.

It's a verse on a song me and my friend are trying to do (for school). It isn't really about anything except bragging and showing off lyrical talents. I just hope I have some.

I think it's okay. You might have to bend the words to make it rhyme but in my head, it all rhymes well.

Go down in Cali and chill

By the time I get there, turn into an Amityville

Go be grabbing the steel or get the family killed

Then have an appeal, yeah I go to the slammer and still

You think I do it for glamour and mils?

F*** nah, I do it for the jack hammer and thrills

Yeah, so get your mentality ill or your cavity filled

Dammit he will, a teenager all about acne and pills

And then you climbing hills

Hoping to pick up some rhyming skills?

F*** that you fall down a slope in a cloud of smoke

Until your crown is broke and you bound in ropes

Now you’re dope, you weren’t when I got you rolled into ashes

But now I can wrap the globe in plastic

It can explode in gasses of coke and acid

And by the time the mic is done, It’s smoked I pass this

Or who is the least funniest?

He is awesome, but his albums flopped.

Mixtapes included, as well as collaborations e.g Slaughterhouse & Bad Meets Evil

I've loved the first one for about a month and got the second one yesterday. Which is better?
