But I did venture over today and I think that it was meant for me to read this post because I have to plead my boy Tip's case. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;T.I. is on my list of favorites in the game right now, and I will admit that it is not necessarily for his lyrical prowess. What T.I. lacks in lyrical ability, he makes up for with a refreshing authenticity, which is missing in a lot of music today. He is true to himself and he is also one of few rappers who is not afraid to show real vulnerability on a record. And not once in revealing that vulnerability does he sacrifice any of his toughness or masculinity. While a lot of rappers can spit hotter lines, Tip can make you feel, which is rare.  I think he should be given credit for that at least.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4705367498970327006/3927480461770192792/comments/default/8653273406532746720'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4705367498970327006/3927480461770192792/comments/default/8653273406532746720'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.hiphopconnoiseurs.com/2008/09/over-rated.html?showComment=1221609240000#c8653273406532746720' title=''/><author><name>Skinny Black Girl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00415732477970265779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.hiphopconnoiseurs.com/2008/09/over-rated.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705367498970327006.post-3927480461770192792' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4705367498970327006/posts/default/3927480461770192792' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
