  i hate rap these days. not saying it was ever really that great, but still wtf. i have a theory on today's "rap scene". this plethora of new "talent" as they say pretty much all falls into one category which is hereby coined GLAM RAP. yeah, that's right. just like the pathetic glam rock bands of the 80's, we now have Glam Rap in the 21st century. if for any reason a rap song covers any one of these four criteria, it is categorized as Glam Rap: 1) Money 2) Hoes 3) Cars 4) Clothes you'll notice that these 4 rhyme with eachother, sticking with the whole rap theme of this rant.
typically if one subject is covered then they are probably all covered, because rap songs are stupid. at least back in the old school days of NWA up to Death Row Records we got cool songs about gangbanging and cool stuff. now it's all about being "clean" with "ice" and ridin' "twenty foze" whatever that is. how is it that i'll hear some debut song by some debut rapper and all he talks about is the 4 things?? when you start out you dont ALREADY have all those things, those come from getting paid after you work your way up right?
it's like they're born with the 4 so thats all they know and/or rap about. you probably listen to or know very well of some very popular Glam Rap artists such as... Jay-Z 50 Cent Cash Money Records(the entire group of hustlaz or stuntaz whatever they call themselves this week) Ludacris Nelly Murphy Lee R. Kelly Chingy Master P Ja Rule there are many more that i don't care about to take the time to list.
snoop dog could fit this category these days but he's too damn cool to pick on. he could easily get the "Coolest Guy on Earth" award and everyone on the planet would probably agree. outkast is cool because they dont rap about the 4 and the dont care about their image so they make crazy ass songs and wear awesome costumes. so if you listen to these "artists" just remember the backlash of the 80's glam rock bands and realize you are THIS generations #1 group of brainwashed retards.
