I like Rap like Mike Jones so Yay! He just state the fact about his life, like how chicks use to treat him before he has money and how they treat him now because he got money.

Quote:
 
[Chorus 2X: samples from "Still Tippin'"]
"Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me"
"Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me - I SAID"
"Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me"
"Back then hoes didn't want me, now I'm hot hoes all on me - I SAID"

[Mike Jones]
Mike Jones!!
Befo' I came up in the game these hoes didn't show no love
They see me in the club and used to treat me like a scrub
They wouldn't holla cause my dollars wasn't swoll enough
I bet they change they mind when them 80 4's come rollin up
They see that I'm a star,
now they wanna sit in my car
Now they wanna count my cheese,
smoke my weed and sip my bar now
They used to love to me diss me,
now they rush to hug and kiss me now
They tellin all they friends when
I leave how they miss me now
2 8 1, 3 3 oh, eight zero zero fo'
Hit Mike Jones up on the low cause Mike Jones about to blow
Befo' the ice was in my grill, befo' I got my major deal
These hoes wouldn't give a damn if I was heah, geah
Befo' the ice was in my grill, befo' I got my major deal
These hoes wouldn't give a damn if I was heah, geah
Befo' the ice was in my grill, befo' I got my major deal
These hoes wouldn't give a damn if I was heah, geah - because

[Chorus]

[Mike Jones]
I remember back den, most of them hoes couldn't stand me
But now them same hoes beggin me to pull down they panties
A couple of 'em said I was cute but I was just too chubby
Same size a year later the same hoes wanna **** me
Because they see me paid, pimpin pens, workin my jelly
And I ain't trippin cause my pockets
stick out mo' than my belly
They know I'm paid, livin laid in the shade
2 slabs in the Escalade with fo' or five estates
Then know that I got it made, I'm a mother****in baller
She would want a nigga now but
I ain't got no time to call her
I'ma stall her like she stalled me,
now she tryin to call me
***** I'ma drown yo' whole *** like you Dom P
I'm Mike Jones, don't act like you don't know the name
Ain't nuttin changed but my change, I'ma stay the same
I'm Mike Jones, don't act like you don't know the name
Ain't nuttin changed but my change, I'ma stay the same

[Chorus]

[Mike Jones]
Befo' my paper came, befo' I got my fame
These hoes that's poppin on me now didn't even know my name
They said my flow was lame, they said I had no game
I told 'em all I was fin' to blow they thought I was insane
But they my name started blowin up quick,
now they jumpin on my dick
Cause they see me on the rise and oh
now my paper thick
But they my name started blowin up quick,
now they jumpin on my dick
Because they see me on the rise and oh now my paper thick
[Chorus - 2X][/SMALL]

Rap music... Pretty much a nay, I can take it or leave it. Only two rappers I'll actively go out of my way to listen to: Eminem (Like Toy Soldier = class, and until the end, Mockingbird is cool too... shame he had to swear) and Coolio.

50 Cent is an instant switch channel/station, and Bizarre should really stick with D-12.

Fairplay to Dr Dre though...

That's neither music, nor  a form of self expression. Some is good, but the majority blows.

Umm, see the thing is, it isn't. That's what you hear on the radio, and what MTV likes to exploit.

If you took the time to listen to some underground hip-hop, you'd find that rap is poetry.

I'm saying that is. I'm not saying underground stuff sucks. But nothing by Eminem, or 50 Cent, or any mainstream rappers could ever be considered self expression.

are you crazy!!!! Eminem had freakin protesters against him becuase he let out his feelings against the world on his Cd's. You dont know what emotion is if you say that. All rap is poetry becuase if you took away the background it would just be talking in poetry. Now some of the rap is a bit pointless cause all they say is "I got hoes on me, i have cars, and i have money" but still its appealing to many people cause rappers make plenty money.

I absolutely LOATHE rap. You can barely understand what their saying, and what you can understand, it's all about sex. Also, the constant never changing rhythm is annoying. I like songs that actually have notes and a tune.

The only rap song I like is the theme to "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air".

So, if you're rich, your music is automatically appealing?

No, it's not. Try rhyming to a beat. Fast. Without screwing up or stuttering. You'll get an idea.
