    I'll take a great rapper over a half-assed multi-tasker any day of the week. If a rapper can do other things, yeah that's a plus but it's not necessarily a requirement. A lot of rappers become producers out of necessity more than anything else. In general, I don't care for crooning rappers. I do give props to rappers who go into acting (assuming they're good) or other ventures (ie, Action Bronson's "f--- That's Delicious" series).

    it doesn't really matter. if you're just rapping and you got bangers, its fine. if you sing or produce too and you're good with it, its fine. if you s--- at producing and singing like eminem does, then its not ok

    Rap is an art form. And the beat/production is half of that art form. But I personally put being lyrical over the beat. I will not listen to any rapper who relys on a catchy beat and/or chorus to be successful. but on the flipside of that, you could be the most lyrical MFer in the world. but if you aint got the beat/production value to go with it, you got nothing and I wont listen to you. Dont know if that answers your question or not, thats just my perspective
