Hip hop

The words and sentences in a rap, isn't the same with the mainstream music we hear on the radio.

If you pay enough attention, you would know that the lyrics of mainstream music are very straightforward.
Seems simple and easy enough to write the lyrics. It just take a professional on the mixing machine, to put in some cool and catchy tune.

But that's different from hip hop. The music itself isn't just mainly bass and drums, but it has a bit if orchestra and acoustic feel to it.
Rappers like lil' Wayne and FloRida are good rappers, no doubt, it's just they aren't creative. Maybe lil' Wayne's "How to love", was alright, but the rest is just... mehhhh.

Compared to artist like Eminem, Macklemore, and Mickey Cho, all three which I'm currently into now, (which explains my bias) have great lyrics and depth.
It's like they're telling a story, and it rhymes.
It's strong and poetic.
In a world so damned like ours, it's hard to find lyrics that speak right into our hearts.

These rappers and artists aren't just makin music according to their label company, but telling us their experiences and history.
It's honest and inspirational.

I will definitely explore this genre more, cause I feel it's the place where I can express so much more than in a 'straightforward' song.

"A couple years later, I would focus all my time,
on the art of hip hop, learning how to write and rhyme."
