About 15 years ago, I used to listen to the rap show on Saturday afternoons on WHAT in Philadelphia, and there were some wonderful pieces they used to play--I don't remember the artists, but there was one about all the embarassing things that happened when he had dinner with someone else's family--in those days, rap was often just about the things that happened in people's lives--mostly witty, a bit racy at times--I wish I had paid more attention then--
