Just never been able to get into it is all. I can appreciate rap and hip hop, but I just don't feel it.
It's funny that you mention those two artists, because I think Nas is great, and I can't stand Common. I think they couldn't be more different.zenoaugustus said:
I don't like most rap but I do really like some of it. But then I would say the same thing about every style of music. I haven't found a style yet that doesn't have some good examples of it that I can enjoy somewhere.
I don't think being "real" is important though. "Authenticity" is never important in music, which is just as well in the case of rap music. Have you ever wondered why rappers make such good actors?
I am a Hip Hop producer so if ya ever have any questions feel free to fire away, if ya like sage francis check out atmosphere he is the dude who taught sage francis to rapzen5887 said:
Have you guys heard of Blakroc?
In short, it's a rap rock collaboration between various hip hop artists and the band The Black Keys.

Old Hip Hop = Okay.
New Hip Hop = (Mostly) Shit.
In my opinion.
Basic reasoning comes down to how a lot of it* seems to be about how great the artist is and how they treat women like shit, have sex all the time, and have lots of money.
[small]* The mainstream stuff at least, I know how good lesser known or indie music can be.[/small]

Pretty much the only reason I put mostly in my opinion of new Hip Hop, that song is awesome.neoontime said:

I'm not a huge fan but I do like some rap and R&B so whether or not you regard that as hip-hop depends on my answer. The sad thing is that I know so many people who judge these musical genres without even listening to it, sure they listen to the generic crap that all the D-bags are all into, but then they never hear the good stuff.
I agree that they have different styles, but I still enjoy both. But as you know, everyone has different tastes.BonsaiK said:

Hip hop is the culture. Rap is one of the elements of artistic expression within that culture. MC is the person who entertains the crowd. That person doesn't have to be a rapper as long as he/she keeps the party going.
