Jay-Z - Rap Is Poetry
Jay-Z wrote Decoded not only to reveal his own thought process and life, but to help elevate rap, and rappers, to the same cultural level as our best modern poets. In this video Hova explains why Rakim and Biggie deserve to be looked at the same way we look at Bob Dylan.

Everything he is saying in this video is so true. In fact I've been thinking about some of the exact same things. Only rappers who actually speak on heartfelt topics at times should be recognized though. The problem is most people only want to hear party and club records without any real issues.
