I've seen what was a totally creative and really liberating force self transform into a loathesome face for venal brutality and pathology; but most importantly, the music is not even any good. i blame it all on fucking puff daddy, that is some empty soulless shit right there man. the led zep rip-off killed it for me,

just cuz there are shitty rappers on mtv like puff daddy etc doesn't mean all rappers suck nowadays or something like that.

Generic music, whether it's black metal, punk, shoegaze, electronic etc. tends to be disappointing, it's not just rap.

The good part of rap : the groove.
The bad parts :
-the samples ( = ripoff )
-the clichés ( not that there aren't any in other genres , but rap is on top for that ).
-seems the most important part of it is the lyrics.

Don't try to find out. He's just a wanna-be little man that has ego issues and is basically a money-grabbing bastard that screws up everything and everyone he's involved with.

Soulja Boy at least did it himself. Puff Daddy just rode on Biggie's rhymes until he died, then Puff Daddy realized that by making everything he did a tribute to Biggie, that he could sell records and continue to screw people over.

Puff Daddy couldn't even come close to Biggie's rhymes or flow.

"Navajo's creep me in they teepee" "heart throb? never. black and ugly as ever" I mean, c'mon. You really have a tough time getting past that.

Possibly one of the greatest "slow jams" ever.

haha, AFUCKINGMEN! not to mention the Gza, Raekwon, The Prodigy, Chuck D, Ghostface Killah, MF Doom, and so many others who whipe the floor with LIl Wayne's talent. LIl Wayne is decent, I like "The Inspiration" a lot, but the "Carter 3" is bullshit, weak ass beats with rhymes about girls, drugs, money, gangs, and cars, and ever worse, when he trys to be "prophetic" he'a pathetic. Lil Wayne is testament to how low the bar has gotten for Pop Music.

Surely Judging all Rap by what gets played on the radio is like judging all guitar music by The Kooks
