i don't know, i understand what you are sayin bout the grit edge and curses...well, no, i guess i don't...without a doubt that is where hip hop came from, but now it's reached people who might not have the grittiest stuff to rap about, and they aren't gonna rap about something that isn't real to them...i dont' know, i think there can be happy hip hop as well, it might be a west coast thing, but i dig the fresh pleasant sound every once in awhile. don't take this as me not sayin that you can't dislike "blazing arrow" cuz i mean, clearly you do dislike it, but i just think your last point about why you don't might be a lil off base
