I don't like rap music at all. I don't think it's music. It's just a beat and rapping.

Rap is just to me very annoying.

I think the problem with people, as they start to mature, they say, 'Rap is a young man's game,' and they keep trying to make young songs. But you don't know the slang - it changes every day, and you're just visiting. So you're trying to be something you're not, and the audience doesn't buy into that.

Rap is just somebody getting something off his chest. That's all it is.

It's bad poetry executed by people that can't sing. That's my definition of Rap.

I don't even really like rap music.

I don't like rap that you can't understand. The youth is so quick and alert.

Rap is hardcore street music but there are women out there who can hang with the best male rappers. What holds us back is that girls tend to rap in these high, squeaky voices. It's irritating. You've gotta rap from the diaphragm.

With rap, it's a funny thing. You can say things, and people can take 'em the way they wanna take 'em.

I think rap music is rap music. I mean, are there heavy writing aspects of it? Absolutely. In a sense, is it poetry? Yeah. I've heard that so much, growing up in a house with poetry. But I think people like to use that as a shortcut for who's good and who's not. It's like the word 'lyrical' - 'lyrical' is the worst word in the entire world.
