why does all theese rappers have to put their own name in the lyric, is that because all of that shit sounds the same, so ppl have to know wich artist they are listening to?

does anyone know? [/b][/quote]
if that&#39;s the case some death metal and punk bands ought to take a que and start doing that because many of those groups including goth and industrial for that matter sound the same. anyway bragging about yourself in ryhme has been apart of rap so you&#39;re the product and you say your name so people know who you are.
just like a commercial is about a product it&#39;s not going to never mention it&#39;s own name.

anyway r & b is definately it&#39;s own genre and not apart of hip hop. but since around 92 - 93 with mary j blige&#39;s collaboration with grand puba on what&#39;s the 411,
r &#39;n&#39; b artist have been been having rappers kick a verse on their songs or do the chorus or just plain sing over hip hop beats. they are still separate genres, not one being a sub genre of the other. asides of course hip hop being a culture.

good point on icp. i&#39;m willing to say they are rap but not really hip hop. but the flys incubus, slipknot, limp bizkit, linkin park etc definately aren&#39;t hip hop.

Because we are self-promoting and have high egos. When you repeat our words you say our name. The same goes to why clothes designers put there name all over there clothes.
Are any of you from America?
Just curious.

yea its kind of like marketing yourself by saying your name alot so you can bring in big bucks, Im from America

[Afronaut]

Im not from America.
I find it a tad Silly anyone repeating Him/Herself in a song, (one or few words, over and over again)
in fact, i find repeating rather irritating on Any Type of music,
not just vocals but anything in a song that just doesnt go anywhere abd keeps
kicking the same ruff. It is musically very poor.


I dunno why but thats the way it is, for me.

The biggest musical genre in America.
