i HATE commercial rap.. ::sigh:: i jus had to get that out..i wish rap was more meaning ful and talked about more things other than jewlry and girls....even thou there are rappers like Nas , Mos Def, Talib Kweli...Eminem..and so on that can rap..i wish this whole commercial thing would jus end..cuz there are sum underground rappers that need sum time in the spot light now...

if you hate commercial rap...then don't listen to it. it doesn't help anyone if you complain about it

^.. Dude, if you watch t.v, your going to see commercials.

I like that gatorade one by LL Cool J. I don't like rap, but that commercial is entertaining.

^^i watch tv...i don't see commercials selling rap or any kind of music actually...it's rare when i see cd advertisements on tv, and plus you can always change the channel or sit through the 15 seconds

Yeah... what sucks is that now Underground rappers are starting to talk about the same shit just so they can get some of the light... sad really

that's why you should listen to more rock music.

i don't really mind commercial rap. some of them are quite entertaining. =)

ahh id hate to see a underground rapper turn commercial..its a waste of talent.... i guess im complaining but im jus tryin to say how i feel bout it... and yea sumtiimes comercial rappers are entertaining.. like lil john..but i got tired of him real fast...

Eminem's my favorite rapper until this last album (WACK) but how're you gonna say you HATE commercial rap and say you wish MC's were more like "Eminem" when his entire last album was basically a pop album.... it was terrible....... AHHHHHHH

whatever... iss all good

Mos and Talib are cool though... I can't stand Nas... wack since It Was Written... but that's another topic... I'm out!

AND -1-

Well, everyone should already know by now that I love Mos Def... he's my future hubby.

Exactly, rock's the best

yeaa ive heard that be4 too...that eminam was commericial... but i still like his lyrics u kno...

and um i jus wanna tell u ppl for now reason..but Blackalicious is frickin awesome!... i love his cd Blazing Arrow.....

I don't like a lot of rap, but I looove tupac shakur, he's so awesome. And lil jon annoys the crap out of me, all of the songs sound the same to me, all equally annoying.

Eh. I've never heard of commercial rap.

I hate rap period.

dont hate me but i really dont have a problem with it.. some songs i understand why people have a problem w/ it but yea . i just like rap music ..

i hate poppy rock. sadly green day has fallen into that realm. just like good charolette. *sighs* itz such a tragedy.

agreed. I don't have a problem with rap...

..all those songs that sound alike and sound like lil john songs are commercial.. grrr....and tupac was a real rapper..cuz he actually had talent

when u mean commericial rap u mean mainstream? Underground rappers should stay underground IMO. Once they go mainstream, they start changing their tunes to get a bigger fanbase. Em is my favorite rapper as well but u cant really blame him for his last album. He doesnt really have nuthin to rap about anymore.
