If this is art then every kid with a blog bitching about his or her life then proceeding to say how awesome they are because they can talk is also art.

I despise rap because every rap song to the next rarely deviates from being a guy telling how bad he has it or how tough he is hidden behind a catchy beat that is WASTED on the crap being said.

Now, (flamesuit on) I think that Nelly's Air Force One's is the greatest rap song of our time... I mean, they make an entirely intresting song talking only about SHOES! How many other rappers have done that? How many artists could make a song about shoes not only INTERESTING but SUCESSFUL!? He doesn't talk about smoking weed, "killin' ni**az...", "rollin'" in expensive cars, or just about any other rap cliche out there.

Are you equally impressed with RUN-DMC for their "My Adidas" effort?

Oh wait, you have no clue about RUN-DMC.

Right. No clue at all.

I knew when I was typing that out that you were going to bring up RUN-DMC. AFAIK, RUN-DMC considers themselves hip-hop, and doesn't like being associated with rap because of the cliches. Hip-hop is a whole different story.
