When did hip-hop...

become this electronica r&b/pop bullshit? What the fuck is wrong with rappers that they need to synth there voices to sound like these fucking robots? T-Pain started this, but he was singing (or so I think that's what it is) then everyone just seemed to jump on that shit with Lil Wayne and Kanye leading the way. 

I dont really like Wayne, at all, but he can put some off the wall metaphors together. Power to him. But why this voice changing shit? And why decide to take the Ja Rule path and sing on EVERYONE'S FUCKING SONG! I generally have nothing but respect for Kanye West, and I still do, but why is it that he needs to do this shit too? He can actually hold a note, but it just goes out the window when you get the stupid ass synth over it...

I hate... HATE... that shit. I also hate the path these dumbass rappers are taking this music. I dont wanna sound like an "eliteist" or some rap "purest" but I just can't help but be annoyed by the lack of originality in hip-hop... Shit, in all music. I heard a song the other day on the radio (which I rarely use) and I thought it was Yellowcard. I asked a friend of mine about the song and they told me it was another group called "Second Hand Sernade"

..... I know originality is hard to come by these day, but please try not to sound so much like another group. Be you. PLEASE.
