More out of touch rapper: P. Diddy or Dr. Dre?
All Dr. Dre has rapped about for years is how he's from the streets of Compton and how great he is, which has made for some really, really hilarious material (such as the entire 2001 record).

And anyone who has watched Making the Band 2 or that one episode of Chappelle's Show has an idea of how out of touch P. Diddy is. No real ability past paying someone to operate a sampler for him, and still retains popularity.

Who is more out of touch?

1. P. Diddy
No question about it.

In fact I would say he even went beyond "out of touch" and into the land of total stupidity when he changed his name to "P. Diddy".

Puff Daddy at least sounds a little cool. P. Diddy sounds like a moron.

2. I hate p. diddy
I would love him if he actually made his own music, but he steals his beats from others and then 90% of his singles have another rapper on them.

Dre. is pretty much the father of modern day rap. I don't know if that's something to be proud of considering that modern day rap is really horrible, except for a few.

3. What I like about Dre is...
He is a good rapper.

P. Diddy, well, sucks. I mean, he can sing.. but he can't rap.

Not the way that Dre or Eminem can rap, I am not debating lyrics or what-have-you, but their actual rap-ability; the way they time their voices in rythem with the music and beats (I know nothing of musical terminology, so I have no idea if that makes sense), is incredible.
