Therefore, it's no surprise it would have a similar effect on people when it's converted to a rap song. Black, you got skills on the mic, but, that song was mediocre at best with an AMAZING sample.

The same can be said about Ike and Trip's "Close my eyes" song, which was good at best. The song that sample is derived from is very nice, which gives the illusion the song is better than it actually is.

So, as a whole, a song might be "enjoyable" to listen to. But, that doesn't necessarily make it a dope "rap" song because the "rapping" in it is nothing to write home about.
