so i'm curious...this is to QD, and i've been saying this for a while anyway. RAP (not hip hop) started off about partying/dance songs, but now when soulja boi, etc do dance songs, its called a disgrace to the 'game'....tell me its not a contradiction?

now...for the most part, i listen to all of the music, alot have purposes..some i use for waking up in teh morning/going on a road trip, some i listen to for the lyrics itself, etc. i'm not saying soulja and people in his 'genre' are the greatest, but to put him down as pure bullshit, doesnt make sense, since at the end of the day, thats what started it off...and i'm basing that off of your post..and you call lil wayne trash, but he's constantly speaking on the same thing 'who is better' his lollipop song was a partying/club song..young jeezy hits on politics and SOME partying songs, on top of his 'trap' life.

so which is it?!

When hip hop/rap first came out, it was about one of three things: politics, "who is better" and partying. All the way through the 80's and into the 90's, this was what rap was about.
