9. "but all rockers ain't built the same. " In response to In response to 1
just because a rock group is old means it's loved
some shit is considered mad joke-y or low class like hair metal
but thats not really answering the question
hard to say. I mean, in Rock you do your homework and look at the old greats (to generalize)
and in rap, you say fuck the past, I'mma do ME. and you just burn what came before or your kill the king to become the king
buuuut, then there are lots of exceptions. some new rappers studied the greats and came to a conclusion that while the greats are great, building on what they built is not always the way to paper. I'm like both surprised and NOT surprised when I find out X new rapper, mumble rapper, trap person was known for spitting tight rhymes in highschool or being a backpacker back in the day (ahem, Lil' Uzi Vert, Will.I.Am, etc)
