So I just found out Bobby Ray's new album is Strange Clouds, I heard a song called Bobby Ray vs B.O.B. It's cool, but I am sick of artist like his mentor T.I. fighting their alter egos. I'm tired of T.I. vs T.I.P, Cassidy vs The Hustler! What's next Nicki Minaj vs That Crazy B*tch Roman. SMH! Why can't some people be original?

    I was gonna say "good girl gone bad" concept, till duke pulled out the nas video, its ok to reuse a concept its the way u persuade the message.

    Like Kendrick lamar with ADHD, thats been done before but i think he did it better then anybody, one of the deepest tracks ive ever heard, that ? stay goin over peoples heads

    I mean what can u really do different in the dunk contest man? u can only do so much.

    like dude posted, no idea is original, thats just the way it works dawg. People ARE creative theres just different ways of spreading a message to touch people.

    i mean from 1700-2012 (music in general)

    how many love songs has there been?

    from 1920-2012 (music in general)
    how many songs about partying has there been

    I mean its not like people can help it breh, all they can do is try to make it better if anything

    Actually I think the most bitten concept is the personification of a gun or drug as a woman

    I think you mean using metaphors was bitten because I can't think of anyone else who bit the metaphor of hip-hop as a woman other than Common. At most there were references to Common's track, but that's obviously not a bite.

    And metaphors were obviously around before I Used to Love H.E.R.
