But as many people here have said there are plenty of people who do that, they just don't get nearly the airplay. If people are feeling Kanye cause he's different than all the BS then maybe they need to stop listening to the BS and look around for something more refreshing, because I assure you it exists.

Come on spaceman, i'm sure you've read plenty of my replies to a few other threads. Mos Def is my favorite artist period. The only reason people dont listen to a lot of there stuff is because sometimes the beats they choose for there songs aren't all that good. Its hard for a mainstream crowd to listen to anything that they cant bop there head to, no matter what type of story is laced on the track. Kanye being a good beat producer, not dropping BS is what everyone is getting hyped about. Because after the mainstream listeners finish boppin there heads and actually start LISTENING to the words...they're like damn, this cat is speaking some real ish.
And i assure u i know it exists. But me being a nightclub hip hop DJ, I also know what people want to hear.
