no you fuckin bitch i'm talkin bout nas, andre 3000, rakim, ghost & rae, gza, lupe, redman, jigga all them cats. hip hop my #1 genre. thats what i came up in. but my point still resides that rock a much more interesting genre of music than soul. still no one can post a song by a soul artist that is as dense and layered as the best work of dylan, cohen, young etc. so stop being an emotional little bitch with this "uh oh he dont think marvin gaye is a complex lyricist.........duke must be racist!"
man up son. this aint some aesop rock nerd shit i'm talkin bout. where the soul poets at?
