First off.....there is nothing wrong with excluding profanity from your lyrics. It doesn't make you any less of an emcee. If you seriously buy an album just because the artist says "Fuck" 26 times inside of a minute, then there is something wrong with you.

Secondly, this is going to be stupid. You'll have to rap to other people's songs and that's just plain stupid. How in the Hell are you supposed to show off your true talent rapping to other people's shit? Oh, that's great. You did a great job on copying Eminem's shit, delivery and flow and everything was perfect. You would make a dope emcee if you came out with an album of other people's songs. But you are terrible when it comes to your own stuff.
Thirdly, P. Diddy of course will more than likely be a judge, along with other idiots like Cash Money Millionaires or DMX or some other "artist" that knows all there is to know about "the game."(Why they call it "the game" but then scream out "It is not a fucking game" is beyond me. If I ever meet DMX and he refers to it as a game I'll reply, "Your move")

Who is going to watch it? Just a bunch of 14 year old wiggers who are from Bumblefuck, New Jersey and scream NY because they think they are thugs. This is going to fail miserably, but I will watch it to see what bad morons are up there and DMX saying, "Yo, you're hot, yo!"

Nall, tha concept of tha show will be to come up with your own songs. How many artists do u know that signed a deal rapping someone else's song? No one. So why should this be any different. I'm really feeling what everybody on RB is saying. But honestly, there will be a lot of people watching it bcuz it's a good entity to invest in as a tv network on tha part of FOX. Think about it, how many of US artists complain about underground or minority music(And I mean all races) not getting any national or international shine? There's a lot. But this won't be any different from 106 and Park's Freestyle Friday and MTV's MC Battle going on this week. MCs just see it as a nationally recognized show. So what u cant curse. Rapping isn't curse. If you listen to Run-DMc, EPMD, Big Daddy Kane, and the Beastie Boys, add up tha total curse words they said, it wouldn't compare to 50's album, but they paved the way for us.

Oh, also, Johnny 6-Feet, if I was that big-time, I would still be here on tha net with niccas who are just like me. So what I sell beats, I ain't tha greatest, I'm just average. But my shit is marketable, affordable, and I have a great buzz in my region. So next time u wanna act like an asshole, go to another thread.

So What yall think?

aiyo i know that if anybody had the chance, they would sign with PD because of the money. Fuck Street Cred, will that instantly get you a multimillion-dollar contract, like one from diddy? And if anything, you could use Bad Boy to blow you up, then join another label. Like the L.O.X.

i turned down 3 offers, i have a buisness i enjoy running.

rap idol, it could happen, but it wouldnt get you too far, sure it gets you noticed but nah i wont even re comment on it, good luck to your uncle or whatever it will be fun to watch dont get me wrong, but i wouldnt participate.

reason i turned down my offers is because i enjoy helping people instead of helping myself, i already got all the money i need, dont need more then what i got.

it would be interesting to watch tho. hundreds of rap wannabes that cant cuss! that would be great. But if it's like American Idol... then they'll have to rap to other people's songs. What songs are they gonna use... Will Smith joints?


why did you even THINK that they'd be performing
other peoples joints? They'd obviously be writing
a joint or freestylin, one or the other...you cant give
someone a trophy for not doin there own work..

Its totally opposite from American Idol right now..this
is singing, you can find vocal range and shit from
singing someone elses song...thats opposite from what
the rap idol would do...obviously its about your lyrical
ability and flow/delivery..

why wuold u even think they'd be performing someone
elses song? Thats ridiculous
