Why is rap lyrics so bad and contains errors?

So far, I have listened to Eminem, 2pac, Lil Wayne, Kanye West, LL Cool J, Snoop Dog and wherever I go, I find grammatical errors in them. Why is it?

    Rap is a music form of Afro origin and it is in the form of venting out vexed feelings. Lyrics need to be in a flow to bind well with the music and the rhyming scheme so it cannot be expected to be grammatically correct.

    Rapid mumbo-jumbo is as talented as walking in a straight line whilst chewing gum. The POINT of it is to be clannish, laddish and make tons of DOSH for supposed heroes in the ghettos, rabbiting TOSH.

    NO racism implied - it's CULCHA MATTER - as passing a phase as GLAM rock, PUNK and other abominations. Culture is enshrined in Language and the more these RAPPERS mutter, utter NONsense, the more they separate their followers from main-stream. One assumes Eminem is simply illustating others can do it just as well - climbing on the samed cash band-wagon.

    Just because it doesn't fit your warped grammar, doesn't mean it has errors. Check yo selfbefore you wreck yourself.
