[QUOTE="Gauntlet, post: 398840, member: 545529"] I'm convinced you have no idea what you are talking about. 1) The "rap game" is not in the club. That would be the "club game." But yes, you are right, that's what Lil' Jon is doing. 2) Other artists copying another artists style has no relevance to quality. Remember glam rock? Death metal? Boy bands? They were all trends that caught on and then fizzled out. Just because other people do it doesn't make it good. 3) You then go again to talk about how rappers need their own style...........yet you justified artists making good music because they copy other peoples style?
