than rock or "better" than rock, then i will stand corrected...complex writing with hiphop is different kuz its "rapping", complex writing with a singer with melodies and hooks is significantly different..him appreciating hiphop's complex writing is not the same kuz we're talking about singing here, shit aint the same

not only that when someone agreed with him then brought soul singers being able to outsing or have emotion he disregarded that with "that doesn't interest me", he has a bias here...rockist yes clearly but there's a strong racial component with what hes saying imo
