      Intelligent music is general is never going to stay at the forefront of popularity, but it slips under the noses of stoopid masses once in a while. From Grandmaster Flash and Afrikaa Bambataa, to the Fugees and The Roots, "intelligent" rap has been around since the advent of rap, and will stay until rap and hip-hop go by the wayside.

      And these rappers are still not known.

      That girl thought intelligent rap would flourish. :(
