Put those guys next to Xzibit, Main Flow, Wordsworth, Talib, R.A., Ghostface, MOOD or Boot Camp Clik etc etc etc (did I mention Pharaohe Monch??) and I think your definition of a true lyricist will be slightly adjusted.



As far as these rappers using autotune. Whatever floats your boat....thank goodness we live in a free world where there are such things as an on/off button on my tv/radio.
not the least of which would be to mention that i have worked with Talib, Ghostface, Xzibit, Jigga, Kanye, and probably 20 other notable lyricists. Get yourself off the pipe my friend.
