There's a difference between Rap & Hip Hop. The Trash Rappers you're talking about @billieeilish that's Rap they put on a front. #hiphop is a culture a Worldwide movement. Emcees can rock a Mic and share real life experiences Rappers do it for the loot & lie #BillieEilish #Genius

Well said. I woke up today and read what #BillieEilish said and I shrugged. I couldn't understand why it was even news. It is a fact that many rappers are "posturing". That's a BIG part of the commercial appeal of #rap. But it doesn't mean that's all rap is. Don't feel insulted. https://t.co/W41ScdFJQ2
