I've been wondering if I belong here. Don't get me wrong I like being here, but am I welcome? I am 16 and a poet/vocalist. I love hip-hop but I am not a rapper, not an mc, or whatever other names you can come up with. I have a respect for it and I think I have a deeper appreciation and understanding for it than most of the guys here. I'm not just into concious, or into party music, I feel like everything has it's place. But some of you may consider me inferior because I am a poet and poets have always stood in the shadows of rappers. I try to come up with intersting threads and I try to have meaningful debate and discussion, but aside from "Most Intellects Do Not Believe In God" my post on the erykah badu song and my signature, you guys are non-responsive. Put a tight as poem on here and I got one reply. WTF? So tell me you guys, do you think this is only a place for rappers or is this place big enough for all of us? I'm not doing this to seek your apprval, just interested in what you think.

I agree 100 percent with him!!!

If you are a vocalist then you need to be making or getting someone to make some music for you then put your voice on it and make some money.

There's a whole forum here for poetry if that's how you get down...

hey if your a vocalist..then make a audio..and post it in the audio forum..and people will give u feedback on ur song!

Definatly not, Poets are welcome.

Feedback is always slow.. Aint because people dont like what you wrote, just because people are mad lazy on this site.. This sites a lyrical community, its mainly focused on rap, but there is a lot of poetry inclined people here too.

Just keep bumping your threads and people will eventually read it and leave feedback.

I don't really wanna be amongst just poets, that's why I semi avoid that part of the site. Except for the time I posted a poem and got 1 reply.
