and im still calm type n dat

well black nationalism saved your life and ensured Obama's place whit out a black identity u would still be a slave and yes Obama is a tool what u think ?? u think presidents act on their own?? well Obama is still endorsed by Wall Street and the corporate sector tell me for u a dude who dont give a shit about politics what that means for u?? when a person invests in u huge money he own u no? he invested in u and u will pay off his dues no? its logic man not politics

my boy Schwapp said that LL Cool J wrote all her rhymes. don't know how true that is or where he got it from though.

Obama is just another politician. Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, Mit Romney (don't think he was on the bill though), etc., though still just politicians, would be 10x better choices than Obama.

they all play their role in the demise of music in general, but yes, labels do the most damage.

agreed.

you don't understand the conceptual difference between a rapper and an MC. a rapper is out for the money and has limited skill. an MC does it for the art and has a more broad variety of skills. therefore no rapper can be better than an MC. there are wack underground rappers though and there are a few mainstream artists better than most underground.

i no the concepts i learned alot(and i did say this topic was a big 1) but rapper vs MC....you cant say dat jay-z didnt give Nas a go in that battle...and jay-z damn show aint a rapper...but i think lyrically he better den a few MC's...Jin has lost to 2 rappers(serius jones and iron solomon) battle rappers at that...if i rephrase and say that a few rappers could give a few MC's a run for there money will that suit better?

no. those dudes are NOT rappers. Cassidy, minus tracks like "Drank And My 2 Step" is an MC. Papoose is DEFINITELY an MC, when Kanye gets lyrical it is because Common ("All Falls Down" and several other tracks off of "College Dropout"), Jay-Z (just about every verse from any Jay-Z albums he's on and any exclusive Rocafella work) and Rhymefest wrote the lyrics for him. otherwise he's just another borderline decent rapper, Jay-Z, though recently became a corporate sellout rapper, was definitely an MC back in the day, and Jin, Serius Jones and Iron Solomon are all battle MCs because they will do it just to do it. how much money have those dudes made? not much, so how could they be sellouts? they have lyrical skill like CRAZY and they don't do it for the money (or at least when they do they aren't successful). and Pac became a corporate sellout rapper during "All Eyez On Me" because it was a ticket out of jail and even then he had meaningful tracks AND before he died he was getting ready to leave Death Row and make the same music he made before the move.

but if u step 2 somebody and say there name...some one would b like he a raw ass RAPPER...Pap is lyrical but because of Kay slay he became more of a battle/street rapper...cassidy a MC? 1 album dont do it for me he just found new talent for himself...through the wire and last call)even most of the 3rd album) was all kanye alone and he murdered it but everyone says he a raw producer/rapper

my point was that not all rappers have limited skill and not all rappers do it for money and dey do it for the same reasons as a MC but hasn't reached that MC status Yet...dere on the verge though but dey all need more time...some more then others

being more experienced doesn't make you an MC either. Wayne has been around since 96 and dude will NEVER be an MC. on the same token, Blu is BRAND NEW and dude IS an MC, and a raw ass MC at that.

it's like KRS-One said it, "an MC is a representative of hip hop culture. a rapper is a representative of corporate interests. an MC can be a rapper, but a rapper will NEVER be an MC."

^^^that is how an MC is defined. therefore, what you have said doesn't fit right. you need to truly understand the difference to categorize.
