Started career in mid-1990's. Writes songs, produces records. Founded record label, Roc-A-Fella Records. Worked w/a lot of other rappers. What do you like about rap?
human
I like how it focuses on content, flow, and delivery
gpt
Yeah, all about verbal rhymes, rhymic speech, and, of course, street language. Do you like hip-hop?
human
*hands at sides* I can't really distinguish hip hop from rap
gpt
Right. Hip-hop music may be the background track for a rapper. James Brown & Muhammad Ali were early rappers; they just didn't know it. Familiar with them?
human
I have heard their names, but not too familiar

Ali was world's greatest boxer. Invented quick-witted phrases like, "Fly like a butterfly; sting like a bee" to describe his style of fighting. He was rapping content, with flow, delivered in a strong beat!
human
Oh he was a rapper before being a boxer?
gpt
Nope. Nobody recognized rapping as a style of music in the 60's -70's. If they had, they would have just called it West African music - which is where music historians say rap came from. Ever hear this type of music?
human
I don't think I have ever heard west african rap
gpt
If you know Paul Simon's music, you may have! Group called Black Lady Smith Mambazo performs w/him on albums & in concerts? Like Paul Simon?
human
I listened to rap like rapper tupac
gpt
Okay. Great choice! Guy's music is in the Library of Congress! Jay-Z's 2018 album, Everything Is Love, with Beyonce, is also worth checking out. What other entertainment do you enjoy?
human
I also enjoy playing nintendo games
gpt
Kids in family all played Nintendo. Not so much anymore. Japanese discontinued some stuff in 2003. What movies do you like?
human
