Rappers Can't Smile
Style: futuristic rock meltdown
Rules Broken: Structure (four vocal lines repeated over and over creating a completely unacceptable
lyric by industry standards)
Topic: "When people heard I was making a CD the first question was always "what kind of music is it?".
Well, this song answers that question. I'm not a rapper, I'm not a rocker, I'm not a pop star." The lyric addresses expectations placed on artists based on their
musical category. Few successfully transcend the required mold and the ones that fit it scream "You should really love me!" because they've copied the formula just
as they've been told."
