Well...the Beastie Boys are going 20yrs. strong and Outkast is heading in the same direction, Ice Cube has been around since the late eighties as well. Like every other genre of popular music there are quality artists as well as manufactured hacks.

Artists who can't adapt won't survive. Artists packaged and marketed by the powers that be at record companies and MTV are all just flash in the pan.

Funnny....I was just listening to NAS's song "Hip hop is dead"....but I began to suspect rap was waning when some of them took to rapping about chicken noodle soup and a soda on the side. I don't include NAS amongst the group of illiterate rappers.
