@Tha4thLetterr nah...there has always been gimmick rappers...soulja boy is just the modern mc hammer..n lil jon is more a hype man than a rapper...thats why he never has songs by himself

None of this things she listed are Hip Hop..If you think those things listed have something to do with Hip Hop then I guess you dont know what you're listening too and have never understood Hip Hop in its entirety .. Hip Hop is not dead is just that most of you dont know what it is...so I dont know what she is talking about!!! But anyway keep thinking that..peace!
