i listen to rap for lyrics. somthing minaj, trina and all the others have yet to accomplish. they just like to sound like hoes
lol. Good Ol' Trina .
The thing is, hip hop , like any art, was a means for the artist to express themselve - their environment; while we as the listening audiences could
get a peek into what was going on.
At any giving time we knew what was good on the East Coast , West Coast, South (scarface/outkast etc) gansta , conscious whatever.
So when it comes to the ...foremothers..lol ..of the "ho" genre ; I actually respect them because that was what they knew and where they were from.
Have you ever been to the projects in NY? Or the deep south in florida where people don't have grass?
A cute little petitie light skinned/ brown skinned girl with a body didn't stand a chance.
lol.
There's also something to the purposeful seperating of Hip Hop from R&b which used to be all on ONE station.
But thats another conversation...
