death means gone, no more, deceased, never to return. Rap is far from "dead".

What your saying is rap is too glamorised, theres too much money behind it, theres alot of candy ass bullshit being made due to radio and airtime creating a huge amount of competition.
If rap was "dead" then there would be no need for rappers to sell out, we could simply keep makinbg music for us.

rap is not dead, rap is at a all time high in the way of commercial music success.


yea thats probably a better way of putting it...it's just not real no more

its real to me.

i dont even take notice of the mainstream. Who cares what they are doing. As long as it doesnt effect you and you stay true, then rap will allways have its real side.

theres real and fake in anything bro, just gotta make sure you knwo were you stand in life.

yea i feel what u sayin but thats why im so dissapointed is because mainstream is a way of gettin heard u know what i mean....u always hear bout people wanting ta get a major record deal so bad...kinda kills the excitement if u have ta be fake just cuz of what the A&R's want you ta be

well then you need to make the choice.

fame or stay real.

the way I see it, if you stay real and true to yourself, and do it properly with skill. Then you will be felt by those who matter to that style of music.


the ones seling out are tryna impress corny ass girls and little pimple popping homos. Do you really care to impress them.

make YOUR music, the ones that feel it should be the ones that matter to you.
isnt that what matters?
