You're all pretty short sighted as to why rap as a musical form is so successful today. you need to work forward from the sugarhill gang and then look at the political reasons behind rap.

Im going to have to disagree with EVERYTHING you just said. Well almost everything. Sure raps roots are filled with political strife expressed though its music. But what is rap lately ? Are you telling me thier are serious political issues being discussed in mainstream rap today ? I guess a "Bitch" shaking her ass on "da" dance floor is an issue now. Im sure John Karry's going to make "Gettin Crunked" a major ticket in his campaign. Are thier a couple rap songs lately that do deal with serious issues ? Sure. But they are very few and far between
As for Creed...Ill have to agree with Palazzo . Creed payed thier dues as much as any band and have sence put out some VERY good music. Maybe not Metallica..theyre washed up and get 0 love from me anymore.
