listen to the song Junk by Eyedea, you probably won't but it's about wanting to be famous. EVERYBODY wants to be famous, everyone wants to be popular in highschool too it's part of this corrupt society that shows like american idle succeed because of.
You make a good point C, but not a valid point because rap has evolved in many ways then just a struggle. It has become poetry in motion more then anything else. So anybody can spoken word? but now they add a beat flow and more rhyme schemes they are wrong? if they sing their own hooks they are wrong?
You're picking at the subject a little rough I'm not sure why it bothers you but it just sounds personal.
My buddy went and tried out for american idle, he sang toxic by britney spears. everybody trolls the show now n' then and he has skills that's all that matters.
why are most good battle rappers white? ... lol, they have no roots in the music technically yet they seem to shred people, and would of probably been rock musicians by tradition.
