Apparently, if you're not a Black American, you're not allowed to talk Hip Hop because it's "so difficult to understand if you're not living it".

What if you're from Maryland and just started listening to 90s hip hop a year ago?
It shouldn't matter if their background checks out. You listen to the music becuz u feel it, and u like it. It really doesn't matter what artist is making it..On the grand scheme of things, if 2Pac wrote your all time favorite song, than one day you found out he didn't actually experience what the song was about.. Would you still listen to it? Hell yeah.I'm sure if we had the internet and cell phones more involved back then like today, alot of the OG "real" artists wouldn't have such credibility... If you like the song, listen to it. #JustSaying
Read to Die is 5/5 classic (unlike Reasonable Doubt), no one can deny that but check out his second album. Life After Death is a 3/5 album AT BEST, but he got killed so hip hop community gave it a pity classic status. Cut all the filler from that double disc album and you're left with barely a single disc album and even then I'd give that version 4/5 TOPS. So let's look at Rick Ross, lyrically he's you average studio gangster rapper with the occasional clever line, like BIG was after RTD. Couple his lyrics with very high quality production and you have basically what BIG would be if he was still alive. Reality is though, if he was still alive and still with puffy his beats probably wouldn't be nearly as good so he'd probably be putting out albums worse then officer Rawse

I mean shit dude, if someone upped the vid of 2Pac not being able to say "the bbbb b-word" people would have shitted on his Thug Life image, or if that video of him and Jada dancing in the 80s. It would been Mobb Deep And Summer Jam. Just my .02. *kanye shrug*
