Yeah theyre actually similar..
But its weird cause Gunit makes some hiphop songs and vice versa..

Um no, i'm not exactly sure but jr. the answer might be in the rap education thread.

It's Nick Drake, and when was that?

I just found it in the member picture gallery. It's post #1090.

Or maybe 2090? I forget. Crowe's pic.

Well theres mainstream rap like Gunit and then theres 'underground' like RZa and Jedi Mind Tricks

The difference being?

I'm not trying to be a wiseguy, really. This has been something I've wondered about.

hehe crowe kinda does look like nick.
Genre's are pretty much useless and pointless in rock and get rather monotnous. So trying to understand them in a genre you don't really listen to is confusing. It sometimes seems like they're there just to be there.

underground is better, it has passion and soul put in it and lyrics that make you think, like Immortal Technique. The guy has a huge vocabulary and he uses it very well

I think that applys to all genres. When people arent making music to be sold to masses theyre just writing to write.

Ok, so it's pretty much like the whole rock/pop thing then?

Moving on, what the heck does that 1337 thing mean?
