So you have an issue with MY opinion not agreeing with YOUR opinion. Did I get that right? Well it seems you have issues alright, but the wrong diagnosis. Who are you to say that I have to think he has talent? I'm not going to call you a idiot for liking his crap, so how are you able to sit and say you have an issue because I don't.

Ahhhh, so you KNOW Femenim's history, huh? Grew up with him? Know him from school back on 8 Mile? Lolol. Everyone KNOWS his history, man. Wikipedia rocks!

Remember, this would be an opinionated statement. I was listening to this music for a decade before you were born man. I'll be honest, and this isn't a clown on you, but I don't think I could take your word on what rap is good and all. I'd have to listen to the word of someone who has been around, you know.

Are you sure we're talking about the same dude?

I agree with you here. And all real rap enthusiasts know that mainstream is the death of good rap.

Again, although you'll probably take this as an attack on you, I'm telling you it isn't. You're obviously in a defensive mode so you'll respond very defensively. Later, QD.
