--- Quote ---Are rappers musicians?  Sure, same as drummers and percussionists.  Everyone
likes to make fun about drummers not being "real" musicians, but as a bass
player, I know they are.  I admire and respect what they do, and playing
bass with a good drummer is fun, easy, and more musical than playing with a
not-so-skilled drummer.  Rappers fall in the same class, and whether or not
they rap over sampled music or a live band makes no difference.  Singers who
sing to pre-recorded tapes are still making music, right?
