but he wasnt bout complex wordplay or a flashy flow

the dude was spitting straight facts

Thats right, he doesn't need a gimmick.


two words......flava flav

That is not a gimmick for Chuck D. Flava Flav does not do anything to Chuck D's lyrics. He may add a gimmicky tone to the group but Chuck himself is still without a gimmick.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.
