I won't go into the guys I like but I will tell you that most of them are from the early 90's and late 80's. I'm a big fan of good lyrics in rap music which there seems to be a lack of these days....and I love the gangster rap stuff which sports some of the worse lyrics in this day and age (imo anyway). Sure they were talking about shooting each other and dealing in 92...but most of them back then still had a message in their music ("Get out of this lifestyle you're living if you can"). These new guys? They love the lifestyle....and they just encourge more of the youth to join it. But they can rap about what they want I suppose....

Interesting... which groups in particular?
