My personal opinion is that anyone who thinks rap is music, is only living on the memory of what it used to be. Get rid of the posers, and these other lame thuggish new comers, and bring back the long gone rappers..(except the dead ones for obvious reasons..although it is sad that they are gone. I miss big punisher the most)and rap will be appealing.

And it seems you've completely ignored the underground. Regardless of how "garbage" you consider the mainstream, Underground is still live as ever. And while you say living off that memory, a lot of underground rappers are still imposing that basis to there music - or elevating. Almost all of the Def Jux line up is impressive lyrical and beat wise; Rappers like Mr. Lif bring back that essence of what Chuck D was preaching years ago, Or the revolution that was Company Flow who brought some of the freshest concepts since Kool Keith dropped Critical Beatdown. Underground is still alive and kicking, yet any average listener of hip hop looks at it as "Mainstream is garbage now, were's my Pac?".
Jam it back in, in the dark.
