*Or are you okay with your rappers creatively being gangsta thru the arts

*Like a 2pac or sum? (Jus kidding lol)

*Do you respect the Pooh shiesty's, the Kay Flocks, the Pop Smoke's, the King Vons, the Nip Hussle's more.

*Rappers who are exactly who they say they are.

*Or are you cool with the Freddie Gibbs, The Benny The Butchers, The Drake's, the Ja Rule's, the Wayne's


*The rappers who get gangsta thru the songs and fantasy rather than demonstration and reality


*For me it's about whoever make the best music, but I cannot lie rappers who live what they talk about always hit harder :wow:

*Guess everyone just gotta find that balance :manny:

Californ-i-a by way of BK
Authentic. You gotta live it to the point where you at least did the majority of shyt you rap about or was around it/in the mix. Not a nikka who's just making stuff up because it sounds clever.

I don't care if you rap like prime Rakim mixed with 1996 Jay-Z, if that shyt is made up, and I KNOW it's made up, I'm not trying to hear it.

Depends. If they talking some intelligent, righteous real shyt then yeah I hope they are really on that. If you talking that gangsta shyt then yeah I hope its all studio.

This.


At least be in the mix of shyt you rapping about. You gotta be able to pull from some place real. If its all fantasy then wtf are we really doing here?


I can just go read a Harry Potter book or watch a Marvel movie if I want to see some off the wall land of make believe shyt.

rap is like other art form

I want my rap genuine

My GOAT is the most authentic rapper ever

Hell my favorite movies a realistic or based on a true story. U dweebs can keep that fantasy Star Wars type shyt and shove it.
Written and performed by the biggest dweebs :heh:. If the story can be genuine in that context with a movie then why not with rap?

For both

How does that impact your experience? You have no way of knowing how real what they are saying is. Some of the biggest fakers know how to make shyt sound the most authentic.
