with the risk of sounding old and set in my ways, I think this is what commercial rap has lost. Look at what most rap is like now. It’s ridiculous. It’s like one big masturbatory self promotion. The cars money and hos nonsense has got to go. It is so completely hollow that even pop stars call it shallow.

I totally agree. Rap today is all about uncreative excess. The biggest diamonds, hottest hoes and most expensive clothes, cars and cribs. The music and the souls of these rappers are what is suffering. Materialism is useless after we die and WE ALL HAVE TO GO SOMETIME
