Lies. Music doesent change your life. It can inspire you, and if you become talented and successful at what you were inspired to do, then sure, you can give the artist the credit, but the artist was just trying to make money off of you. Rappers lie, all the time. Rappers arent trying to express themselves, they are trying to break an industry and make something with their own life. Which rappers try ti express themselves? I say this, because I love poetry, and reciently I have properly got into it. Never once has a rapper used imagery to me. Imagery is the strongest poetic technique, and if rappers used it to portray a story or give us some feeling to a deeper message in which they are trying to convey, then sure, I'd accept it. Rap music is not poetry, rap music is just dumb rapping about things that shouldnt never be given a main stage. If you're life was truley hard, why are you hung up on using that to propell your career? Forget it and overcome all the hardship. You can't complain if it was a platform to success.
