So do people stll take gangsta rap seriously, or is it just a novelty, or people trying to hang onto the past. I used to like "gangsta" rap (like in the 90's ), but I've grown up, and it's sad for me to here grown up glorify murder, drugs, rape, etc. Now I like more grown up type rap, like Lupe, Hov, even Kanye etc. What's the general concensiois (sic)?
Edit: Even a few years ago I was excited by all the net hype about the Cali artists that were supposed to make it big...Big Rich, CrookecI, Ya Boy, Glasses Malone, Balance, San Quinn, Messy Marv, Clyde Carson, etc. What ever happened to those guys? Are they all in prison now or working at Burger King or what?
