I strongly disagree.

immortal technique sucks the dude has a message but he cannot rap for fuck


I agree, and even his messages can be kind of stereotypically political.



I think that people need to look at rap scenes in other countries and also appreciate the good modern rappers. For instance, people like ded prez are great. Even hopsin and OFWGKTA are good for at least bringing new shit to the table and refreshing the genre. Everyone here should check out Keny Arkana

I can say that most of good rap is dead. it's all sex, drugs, and money, but there is this one not so old song, Stereo hearts, it's pretty cool.

I'm not a fan of rap, but I can sure say that rap died the split second that ICP (Insane Clown Posse) was formed. Fact.

I'd like to say rap was just an idea that was never successfully pulled off, but that'd be too general a claim.
