    Please people don't kid yourselves. Don't sit there and tell me that HIP-HOP is in the same category musicaly as the Beatles, or Pink Floyd or Marvin Gaye or Miles Davis or Louis Armstrong ect.

    These are people that have studied and been inovators in the art form of music.
    Hip-HOP is less about music and more about image.

    People don't flock to buy 50 cent records because of his musical talent, they buy it because of his thug image, so that these suburban wannabes can live out their gangster fantasies.

    Like I said before, I love Hip Hop and when it's good, (5% of the time) it's amazing. But I love it for what it is, not because i think it's good music.
