in hindsight

i think kanye is doing more for hip hop

i think 50 will sell more

i was reading 50's article in rolling stone, he said a something in which i will horribly paraphrase here...

"you know what i see...songs like "this is why i'm hot" are topping the charts...that tells me something...people don't want to think...they want simple songs with good beats, not complex melodies..."

In other words: people want music that they can listen to while turning off their brains


This would explain the success of 50 cent and similar artists
