“It’s only-only at the end of the day, it’s only entertainment.”
- Jadakiss, Rapper
I have a mix decision on this quote. The thing is that yes, sometimes its entertainment and sometimes the things that seems like entertainment should be taken seriously and should be listened to. Not everything about Hip-hop is entertainment, somethings rappers or singers want people to hear and to understand what’s going on. Somethings they want to be taken seriously and some not. The issue is that… I guess some people take some stuff WAY TOO serious and take it to heart and make it into themselves. They make it their life and especially if they like it, the more they like it the more they attend to it. If I would have to make a decision though, I would say that my vote is majority “no” on this quote.
One thing I do have a BIG issue on is this,
“When I hear a rap song, I pay more attention to the beat than to the lyrics.”
The beat is not what makes the song, it’s the lyrics in the song that makes the beat. How can you not hear what’s going on behind the curtain of the beat, when most rappers/singers make a track(song) they put lyrics in it for a reason. They want to be HEARD. The beat is to attract, and once you’re attracted, they want you to listen and not just to the beat to the lyrics. People should be more careful to the things they listen to, not saying that a lot of things people listen to are bad and should be banned or nothing. Just take the moment to know what’s going on in the song.
