I would say that Outkast is the only good rappers out today. Most of them sound the same, just use a slitty different beat, with the same self obsessed words about how many drinks, hoes, and benz(s) they have. Outkast changed it up by infusing other types of sounds into rap. They stand out from the crowd and they deserved their Gammies. Em should just be a parody writer, he may be very funny, but his voice is just plain annoying to listen to. And Jay-Z is okay in my book. 50's new song totally sucks.

I'm really not into rap, so I don't go looking for other rap singers. Could you please mention a couple of the rappers that aren't mainstream and don't sing about drugs, sex, and money. Why do I seem to think this is a tall order?But here's your chance to prove me wrong.

Since you didn't take the time to back up you statements, I looked up all these guys on the net and proved my theory right, what a surprise. -Prefuse '73: I listened to the first song on their website and I don't know if I would call it rap. It had a techno edge. It was 5:16 min. of almost no words. -Visionaries: I searched them and it's a TV show about telling success stories about people who overcame their troubles. -Living Legends: I couldn't find any music by them, and their website was very confusing. You would click on of the band member's names and it would show like 6 CDs by that person. I'm sure about 'em. -Infinate Livez: couldn't find any info -Automato: First of all the group has 6 white guys, sounding very much like a cheap resurrection of the Beastie Boys. Not to mention they had lyrics about sex and taking off a woman's clothes and having razors in his mattress. -Boom Bip: Yet again another one with some techno stuff. I listened to a clip of a song called "From Left to Right" (it could be the other way around) and this one also had no words. -Rasco: He cursed, said the "n" word, and talked about drinking. -Ill Bill: Of course anyone with a song called "Dopefiend" isn't singing about drugs. -Dilated Peoples: "Undress slow, while the others strip fast". Yes, the answer is "what is talking about hoes" -Dyablo:no info Well, it looks like the guy with a power puff girl sig let the girl named Gryffindor4life win.
