Jeremy, I sort of agree. I personally feel that the LITC remix would have not work with Wayne wasn't on it. But I do feel that in certain songs it kinda kills the feel of the song.

I think rap does kill good rnb songs, one song I can think of is 'bust it baby" part 2, with NeYo...the ONLY reason I like that song is because it samples Janet jackson's hit "come back to me" and the chorus in catchy, other wise I fast forward thru the song, lol

oh my LORD! LOL! See thats why I like my 90's & old school music because back music was MUSIC & people put art into what they sang.

These days all you need is

a beat, some dude in clothes 3 sizes too big , a grill with stank breath and some big booty girls in the video and it goes platinum...no talent needed! & thats a shame.

i completely agree, am i the only one wondering how rappers like Soulja Boy or Flo Rida got a deal?

I dont even listen to rap anymore, for the most part all of the songs are about the EXACT same thing. I do still listen to 'hip hop' artists tho, like Common, Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco and DyMe A DuZiN, but i just cant get into any of the others.

I cant lie tho, Lil Wayne puts good verses on R&B remixxes, but other *rappers* need to just leave tha good songs alone

Hell yeh...the old school is always the best....

It is very annoying that all you need is a "certain look"...
No lyrical or vocal talent...
