I guess what I don't understand is that if the rappers like good music, why do they make crap?

The Truth: Name a critically respected rap album- you may use Rateyourmusic or something similar to determine what they are, perhaps looking at the sub-genres of experimental or abstract hip-hop- that you have acquired and listened to the entirety of.

Yeah. The music video is up now too, and it's pretty good. Search youtube or something.

The producer of the song thought KC would fit the song, and Kanye agreed. Kanye also admitted he likes the song! Nevertheless, I love the song, and the video is the best video ever, period.

Well why wouldn't he like the song? Average "musicians" always look up to dominant musicians.

You do realize that you've just generalized an entire genre of music based on a handful of pop-artists that you've heard in passing . . . right?

This goes to show how music is utterly dead. This kayne buffoon isn't doing anything that wasn't already done in the 80s.
