rap

A type of music akin to poetry, except usually more explicit and put to some sick beats. Rap began simply, with The Sugarhill Gang and their hit single 'Rapper's Delight' and evolved into The Pokemon Rap and further into Eminem and 'Lose Yourself'. However, after that, rap started to get intense with black gangsta rappers talking about drugs, money, drugs, sex and being phat. Fellow homies started getting shot up in the streets by fellow rappers to show that they meant business and rapping became a dangerous game. Eminem's still alive, sure, but for how long? Rapping's not just a musical style anymore - it's a way of life. We got 99 problems, and rapping's all of them. Rapping has degenerated into a war. It needs to stop! But anyway, I hope all you white kids out there start getting into the rap game. It ain't just for the black folk, y'know! Just be careful, okay?
