LMAO!

But do you realise the flipside to this?

Rappers cant do covers..

But somehow more than 3 quarters of our mainstream industry is built up of compleatly unorigional lathargic clown mother fuckers who have absolutly no creativity or talent and rap about the SAME SHIT as every single other rapper out there.....

I swear I prefer listening to pop music than new mainstream rap these days...

No joke............

lmao yea mainstream is MAJORLY unoriginal nowadays
but it used ta be original back in the day
and it still is underground and wit some mainstream
but rock used ta be original when it first started becoming popular too
then it started ta turn to being all the same shit and
no one liked it anymore because of it now rock is just a faded out fad
so how is rap gonna be any diffrent..its in its unoriginal stage

by re-doing it, do you mean using the same beat, or sampling an old song to make a new beat? or what...

naww im just saying rock bands keep on sayin they more creative than emcees but instead of makin a new hit they go and redo a song
like how korn redid cameo's word up and marilyn manson redid sweet dreams or whatever its called....im just sayin thats completly unoriginal

u dont see eminem redo'ing pacs brendas got a baby or anything
like the lyrics with an updated beat like how rock bands do
so why dont rock bands make their own hits and stop
relying on redo'ing old songs ta make them famous
get what im saying??
