He's entitled to his opinion, but some of his comments I don't vibe with.
I understand him being at a point where he feels like he matured beyond rap, but when he talks about "old man trying to be cool" etc. that's BS to me.
Hip-hop isn't about trying to be cool, it's an art. You can take it in an almost infinite amount of direction. I mean you can be 60 on some Gil Scott Heron/Last Poets type sh*t.
You can be a street story teller, you can do motivational rap, you can be a lyrical miracle dude with crazy wordplay, you can do Christian rap if you chose to.
Is there a point when rapping about selling drugs and shooting people should get old, probably. But you can mature within the music, instead of maturing out of the music.

I still got a gang of old magazines in my closet, I had to post the original Source review of "ATLiens" because cats were claiming Em made everyone think Andre was a great MC.
Not only did they rave about Andre, they gave him Hip-Hop Quotable that month. You can always tell who wasn't around back then.
