is true that it's the only genre of music that references itself?
as in, you hear "I'm the illest rapper alive" all the time in rap.
But in say, pop, you don't really hear "I'm the best singer in the game"

?

what about self referencing in the sense rap's comparison to other rap?

this artist sucks for doing what he did with his rap music, but I'm different

or

my rap is different from the old kind of rap

?

I see that it does happen in other genres

but how often does it happen would you all say?

seems to happen all the time in hip hop. even the really good artists seem to talk shit about certain styles of rap....

PUNK'S NOT DEAD BUT IT DESERVES TO DIE
WHEN IT BECOMES ANOTHER STALE CARTOON
A CLOSED MINDED, SELF-CENTERED SOCIAL CLUB
IDEAS DON'T MATTER IT'S WHO YOU KNOW

IF THE MUSIC'S GOTTEN STALE
ITS BECAUSE OF THE PEOPLE
WHO WANT EVERYONE TO SOUND THE SAME
THEY DRIVE THE BRIGHT PEOPLE OUT
OF THEIR SO-CALLED SCENE
TIL ALL THAT'S LEFT IS JUST A MEANINGLESS FAD
