You know it's a good white non-rapper rapping when you have to ask yourself, Is that even a rap?

Vincent Price's part in "Thriller" is credited as a rap, but it's more of a poem with no particular rhythm.
Rhyming couplets does not a rap make. | |

Rapture - Blondie (Sorry, saw that was listed above)
Native Love - Divine These were pretty bad. But I actually like Wordy Rappinghood by Tom Tom Club - it was so goofy that it was likable. When it came out, the club I went to actually had a hustle to it. LQ [Edited 11/13/06 12:47pm] | |

Rhyming couplets does not a rap make. it's "rapping" in the old sense. a conversational or narrated part of a song. "The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring life. " -- Edith Massey in Female Trouble | |
