Soul for me. For me rap can never pull the strings that a well written and performed soulfull performance can pull. A good musical voice is the shit, and my preference. I think a lot of rap songs, would lack substance or whatever you want to call it without some singing.
I dig anyone with a big voice who can really let it rip. Anyone who gives you goosebumps is (y)
I dunno if I make any sense :lol:

ima hardcore b-boy but i love old school soul better than most hiphop they release nowadays.
i like hiphop more than R&B but i'd take that old soul like James Brown and Funkadelic over some Ja-Rule or B2k anyday of the week.

hahah, James Brown :D

anyways, i like Rap, Hip Hop and R&B but lately ive been listening to heaps of R&B cos Rap is deteriorating IMO

as far as R&B goes Boyz II Men, Joe, Donell Jones, Tyrese, R. Kelly and Ginuwine are good to check out

as far as Rap goes well you can't go past 2Pac, DMX, Jadakiss, Major Figgaz

i'm not really feelin rap atm, having said that though COMMERCIAL rap is shit. Stuff that you don't hear of is better than that commercial stuff, at least the underground stuff isn't made up of sell-out artists

atm i'm feelin in the mood for R&B/Soul so i got all 3 Donell Jones CD's, it's good stuff

btw, One Day At A Time also features the Outlawz, not only Em, oh and the original (and better) version was only 2Pac feat. Spice 1. im glad i got the original version and another one without Eminem, jus 2Pac and the Lawz, Ems verse is annoying as hell
