RAP as potrayed by the mainstream is pop music. the ghostwriters, simple ass topics(guns bitches, money, etc.), and overall lack of originality is not a true representation of REAL hip-hop. to me, i'm no longer a rapper. that title got twisted by the coke dealers turned wannabe gangstaz turned rappers. i consider myself to be a hip-hop artist. i flow and love the art of makin my emotions come to life in my rhymes(which is why i started writing in Poetic Scriptures). it pains me to think my aspirations of bein' a mainstream artist iz bein' ruined by people who already made it in the industry. i refuse to sell my soul(yeah my music is my heart and soul) just to make a buck. i'ma be underground bcuz to me that's where hip-hop REALLY is. the kid spittin' in the cafeteria of his schoolnot bcuz he gets paid to, but bcuz it's what he loves to do. bcuz of that kid real hip-hop will never die.

*shout to the kid rappin' at lunch, i see u, i see u boy
