Please and you think most a these other dudes are "creating the music" ?? What the hell do you think a beat is? Look at real producers not Puffy...look at Pete Rock, Alchemist, Rza, 4th Disciple, Hi-Tek, Dj Premier all these cats make original beats using various samples n sounds they can find. Beat machine is the exact same shit as an instrument cept prolly harder to do than one. Especially since you got all these cats who play the same 3 riffs 90 other bands before them played. You have a bias whether you'd like to admitt it or not. Edger Allen Poe...if you read The Raven it's just like a rap song. You could even spit it over a beat. And stop giving Eminem all the credit. I hate how people are like "Yeah I hate rap but I love Eminem" like he's the only good rapper out. You know how many people rap like him? He stole his steez from cats like Masta Ace, Kool Keith, Cage, Necro....etc. And if you wanna hear a battle emcee listen to somebody like Juice, Supernatural, Canibus, Chino XL. I mean I know for a fact if you like him you'll like most underground hip-hop. Shit give it a chance.
Asta!!
