Why did you spend three paragraphs introducing a bland third one and a meaningless wrap up? You're not fooling me... you really don't havea good reason,. do you?Originally Posted by dunkaruu
Debate ? hmm..It's not my point to post that hova verse to prove that T.I. can't rap, because that is subjective. It was my intent to stay in step with the original topic and share a verse that means alot to me.
With that said, Allow me to delve deeper into why I didn't find the track that was posted as part of the topic that grand .I don't think it was bad, but I did find it a viable example of his work.
I am a member of many communities, and hip-hop is one of them. People matter to me, and T.I. matters to you, so he matters to me. There are many reasons why one appreciates an artist or a work of art. We really don't need a reason, but I am interested what is on people's minds and why the come to their conclusions/choices.
One of the other posters shared a verse from T.I. that I found very inspiring. However, I find that on average, his verses are not innovative in either content, delivery, or perPsective. They are reitterations of a story that has been told for almost as long as hip-hop has been around by other emcees, and, himself.
I'm glad that T.I. is choosing to do something constructive with his life such as making music that can touch and inspire you , that is why I want to understand why you think that verse is so great. What is the connection to you ? What is it about him that you find so compelling ? Please share.
