I always liked Tony M rap. What s wrong with it ? He s not worst than any american black rapper in the world ( I consider MC Solaar, Beastie Boyz and Eminem above the others).

What IS wrong with it?

I think he sounds just fine on "Willling and Able" and "Live 4 Love".

I like Tony M's raps on WAW and L4L, especially on L4L. His rap on L4L conveys key concepts and messages that the song aims to impart. His rap fleshes out what it means to "live 4 love," which is abstract, but giving specific examples of how to "live 4 love," such as "So stop tryin' 2 dominate and push and shove."

.

Live 4 love, without love u don't live
And how u make it is based on what you're givin' back
In fact, only a few of us slip through the cracks
Through generations,
The cards have always been stacked against us (live 4 love)
2 love each other is a must
If we just trust and cut the fuss
Beleive me, unity is a must
Listen everybody, as I spread the word
Everything is hazy when your vision's blurred
I'm kickin' reality in the streets of the city
There's this mentality what goes around comes around
And gangk any clown who ain't down
With the colors that u're sportin' 'round
Listen G, u are supposed 2 be strivin'
2 be the best that u can be
So stop tryin' 2 dominate and push and shove (live 4 love)
C'mon y'all, we got 2 live 4 love (live 4 love)
