What you speak of as a formula, I (as a fan) see as a slap in the face...thats like saying, we as fans of rap music are dummies who only like what we hear on the radio-thats some bullshit...I WANNA HEAR MORE THEN THAT and so do the majority of other fans...that's the reason the game in the bay is all fucked up now- no focus on maxing out the quality of lyrical content just focusing on making "slap"...yea I wanna hear shit that make me wanna bump a bitch in tha club, but when I am in the car after that club rush has died I wanna hear that a mothafucka actually took the time to think about what they were writing...Think about this and the Federations new song...in every verse they got lines from other peoples shit! And yea I know ALOT of people do that now, its hella popular now, but they are often classic older lines of hip-hop....but these cats got lines from KANYE WEST ( a song still on the radio) TOO SHORT ( another song still on the radio) CHINGY ( yet anoter song still in radio rotation) I think you get what I am saying...If it seems like I am in hate mode, you are wrong...I am just in "god damn if I'ma hear this song 100 times a day Im'a notice some shit" mode.
