Would you say that to do rap music or rock music, which is the one that requires having most talent to do that? Well i heard ppl saying that you don't need a much talent to be rapper because no instrument playing involved, and rockers must go through a lot to get signed while rappers just need catchy song and they are millionaire instantly. Your take?
'Talent' is a word that has lost its meaning in a big way, where people on the radio today exhibit none. Poorly singing over an electronic sound track, while the voice gets edited and tuned is not 'talent.' Anyone can bring out an album then. Same goes for models and movie stars... hell, any 'celebrity' applying makeup and hiding flaws. If that's not enough lying - the photo or video goes through another stage and gets altered and airbrushed. We live in a fake world, where the people who make it big are all phonies. And they expect us, the regular folk to look up to them in total glory and even buy their merchandise and branding. Buying into hypocrisy.
Well, when we look at music hall of game, many rock artist are in there and only 2 or 3 rapper, so maybe rap is seen as much easy to do and not many talent required like rock.
