And yes, you can evaluate Kpop rapping on its own merits. Clearly, some Kpop rappers are absolutely horrible and most people will agree.

I think he's pretty cool.<br /><br />In all honesty I think the reason authenticity is so important is because a lot of people feel some sort of connection feeling that someone has went through the same stuff but made it out, and when you take that away then that sort of connection is lost. I care about authenticity to an extent, but at the same time I don't care how authentic Nicki Minaj is because her music is complete garbage and her lyrics are shit imo.GONEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10580157073505854597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104650668609735792.post-62099622783408454702015-03-21T08:45:08.724-07:002015-03-21T08:45:08.724-07:00I meant to type Sure instead of he's, I don...I meant to type Sure instead of he's, I don't know how that happened.GONEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10580157073505854597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104650668609735792.post-22403078417874534302015-03-21T08:43:50.711-07:002015-03-21T08:43:50.711-07:00A rapper should always have good lyrics before the...A rapper should always have good lyrics before they focus on flow.

He really did say hand-on-his-heart that he was "from the streets" in interviews and that pissed off a lot of people,<br /><br />Personally I agree that the "authenticity" obsession in all music is silly because it doesn't affect the way the music sounds (as I covered). I just brought it up because it helps people understand why certain things are perceived in the way that they are when people talk about rap music and hip-hop.Kpopalypsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16485316114199989423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104650668609735792.post-46899891244904963132015-03-21T07:18:08.704-07:002015-03-21T07:18:08.704-07:00I mean all music tho.I mean all music tho.아저씨https://www.blogger.com/profile/04538192791421107106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104650668609735792.post-59383842829689909402015-03-21T06:51:38.511-07:002015-03-21T06:51:38.511-07:00You could say the same with k-[insert any other st...You could say the same with k-[insert any other style here].Kpopalypsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16485316114199989423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1104650668609735792.post-88984371981213563002015-03-21T06:50:52.499-07:002015-03-21T06:50:52.499-07:00But flow comes from the creator, not the performer...But flow comes from the creator, not the performer.
