WRONG!!! it does matter about how it turns out that makes it catchy like u can just put some random rock music with it that doesnt fit. then noone will like it u hav 2 put music that fits 2 make it go well 2gether and make it a better song
im not talking about puting rock music with rap songs; which by the way have been EXTREMELY successful in songs with artists like lil john, beastie boys, and jay-z; i was comparing the two genres.
im saying that in the hip hop genre, the lyrics to a song are much more important to have than in other genres. like in rock, you almost dont focus on the lyrics as much because of actual singing and instrumentation are also focused on. in the hip-hop genre rappers egos have to be fulfilled by putting the majority of the focus on the rappers themselves, this is why in the genre of hip-hop, majority of the time the lyrics to a song must be focused on more than everything else. this is also the reason why people are saying rap is dying because songs like "bedrock" are actually making money for the artists.
dont get me wrong, im not trying to say that making money is bad, but to be getting payed for garbage like that song just blows my mind
