Fundamentally, no it isn't. It's all well and good to appreciate that ****, but to use it as a yardstick of quality is stupid. And yet people seem to do so with hip hop without thinking, even while doing the opposite with rock. Honestly I think it might be because the collective IQ of the hip hop fan community is low enough that their version of punk has just never occurred to them, and so even people with a brain in their head don't really think about it. Or hip hop is just musically limited enough that it's never gotten to prog wank levels.
