If you think rap sucks or isn't "real music", quit being pretentious and go sample something that isn't on the radio:
De La Soul, Lupe Fiasco, Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Brand Nubian, Canibus, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Gang Starr, Digital Underground, (old) Kanye West, Immortal Technique, etc.

Better yet, try to make a 4 minute spoken word poem read to a beat that doesn't suck or sound corny if you think hip hop has no talent.

Just to point out now. This will not work for all apps unless it has changed from the last time I used it.

Even with Crossover (or any similar emulator), not every .exe is supported.

He should just install Windows XP or Vista using Bootcamp.

Install Windows (if it's an intel)?

Otherwise, emulate.

Better to just run Windows in boot camp I think than use crossover. But, just for gungame, neither method seems worth it.
