I've dabbled into some underground stuff. I like hopsin for one. I've heard of Mf Doom but couldn't pick out a song.

For me it's less the rapper themselves it's what they're rapping about.

I don't like music I can't relate to and I can't relate to most rap songs. I'm not out here thuggin or poppin caps, doing drugs and fuckin bitches. I don't even really want to do those things. So that erases almost half the damn genre out the gate.

I like certain rap songs like tech9's Dysfunctional or Am I a Psycho or Eminem or NF's stuff but for the most part I can't stand most of it.

And the glorification of "thugging" is what I mean by raps negative impacts.
