Again, you're clearly ignoring when I said as story tellers. On purpose.
Slick Rick hasn't been rapping for 30 years. His last album was 99 and he just recently put out a new single doing the same ****.
I already said before, that you dismissed, that ICP evolved with hip hop. They've been rapping for 30 years. Of course they evolved. You wouldn't know because you refused to listen because you just followed what every self proclaimed hip hop head of the 2000s did.
I even gave examples of their evolution but of course you get hung up arguing one little thing to misrepresent what I've said.
