I used to love a lot of Rap when it was "fresh" back in the 80's, but it's become too much of a formula now. Theres not much innovation in rap music anymore - unless you like "crunk" music (Bia! Biaaaaaaaaa!) which is very annoying. Im also tired of every rapper who thinks he's a record mogul now and gives all his bud's record contracts! Reprehensible Billy
