 Rapping - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nonsense or dadaist rappers such as Aesop Rock are often looked down on by the purist HipHop fans for not having a real soulful message, and for "watering down the sound of the ghetto" (Kool Keith).
A rapper who talks about nothing with excellent wordplay doesn't show as much skill as one who has a message, because his or her creativity has substance.
An example of a fast rapper is Twista, who is considered both fast and skillful in his rhymes.

 The Rapper Sword Dance - Origins and History
Steel of the quality necessary for rappers was therefore very expensive, so it was almost certainly beyond the means of the average coal miner to purchase purpose-made rappers; and the Earsdon team had been performing regularly for 20 years before this.
As the early dances were recorded in the Tyne Valley, whereas the rapper dances were recorded in Tyneside – some 20 miles (30 km) downstream – it is quite possible that the two co-existed for part of the 19th century, the rapper dance thriving in one location while its ancestor died out in another.
However and whenever the rapper dance started, by the end of the nineteenth century it had supplanted the earlier rigid sword dance so completely that the older dance was extinct.

 Rapper - Definition and History
The origin of rapper sword is still disputed, but the usual story is that the swords themselves derive from implements used to scrape coal dust and muck sweat from mules and workhorses after they and their masters had finished the day's work in the mines of Northeastern England.
Obviously, rapper sword's figures are related to those of longsword, but the pliancy of rapper swords lends itself to greater speed of movement, and figures unthinkable with the stiff swords of the older form.
Rapper dance is also associated with a very ancient and world-wide tradition of Pyrrhic sword dance (theatrical or ritual non-bloodletting exhibitions with swords), but I think the connection, while interesting, is not very strong, as our rapper swords were never formerly weapons.

 AlterNet: Rapper 50 Cent's Gay Problem
Whether it's Rapper 50 cent, and his other rap buddies, grabbing their crotch on stage, or the mindless male testosterone driven gang violence that wreaks havoc in black communities, the hunt is on to wave their prized tough guy male virtue to the world.
The temptation is to chalk the "I ain't into faggots" silly, inane slur that former street thug and hip hop artist 50 Cent made in an interview in April's Playboy Magazine as yet another case of a show boating rapper playing to the street crowd.
When men break the prescribed male code of conduct and show their feelings they are harangued as weaklings, and their manhood questioned.

 Feature: Rapper's Delight
Returning to "Rapper's Delight", the group that recorded it, The Sugarhill Gang, was not exactly a well known crew before the song.
Once the record was finished Joe Robinson, partner/wife of Sylvia, was quoted as saying she brought him a 15 minute record and he had no clue how to get it played on the radio.
Thanks to the revitalization of disco in the late 1990's and several remakes (include one by a grandmother), the words "Now what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat/ And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try and move your feet/" are recognizable.
