    Uhhhh in a word no ! When you are sampling someone else's songs in my mind you are stealing. Although I will say Jay-Z has one or two songs I can tolerate.

    Music is always evolving and this genre is relevant to many people.  For me, it has to evolve some more before I will be a steady listener.

    Old School and new rappers who rhyme about causes and progressive communication, which is why rap was originally started. Mos Def, Common, Talib Kweli are all good artists. Today most of the Hip Hop community is selling out for dollars; those I do not support in any form. 
    If you listen to rap from back in the day; like Public Enemy and KRS-1 it's amazing how respectful they brought the hammer to those who often strive to oppress and throw rocks and hide their hands at fellow man.

    Yes. As long as it has a positive message. Calling women ugly names and rapping about crime, drugs and sex is not something that is pleasing to my ears.

    Absolutely not.  "Old school" was about dancing and having fun. The so-called rap artist today have lyrics that are filled with hate, anger, dispect and disregard for human life.
