Hallo.

I was with a friend and discussing about rap and especially on how and whether the RAP GAME changed after him . I want to know what you think about it

Do you think he opened the door for rap genre as a wholle or just gangsta modelled on Interscope ?

MY friend works in an independent label in UK and has big problem with marketing/distribution of rap of a more protesting manner , They ask him to make more of a self-confession manner so that consumers could identify with his [COLOR=red]BRANDS in the trend of 50 and Em, like no need to be so punchy or causes-crying and shits like this, Are you problematized by rap being less and less radical ?

The rap game didn't change after him. He just attracted a more diverse audience of listeners to it, i.e. more teenyboppers. He might of provided inspiration for alot of other white rapper's too, but that's about it.
