Why don't you ever see authors who are covered in tattoos, ex-drug addicts, raised in extreme poverty etc?

>literally who

>wigger soyboy
You must be an edgy little fucker, aren't you?
Then tell me what you consider good rap lyrics.

>good rap
lol

I understand, so you're one of those people who consider rap as trash because of what they hear from the mainstream representations of it. Must be sad to be as narrow minded as you.

Rap ruins otherwise good music.

Bad rap ruins good music.
Good rap enhances it, even tough its pretty rare

You only ever see writers with those little cheesy ass one liner tatoos that take like 30 minutes.
There are plenty of drugs for sure.

>focusing on what an author looks like instead of their writing

No wonder this faggot board is so pleb

there are many authors that have written about "degenerate" culture but none of them have bothered to get tattoos or LOOK like they are part of that culture because their ego simple isn't big enough to care about that kind of superficial shit

Income for authors are too unstable. It can take many years of practice before you're good enough to make any money so it's ultimately a rich mans game.

What are the materialities of writing? To spend weeks, months or years on end luxuriating on a particular turn of phrase or whatever, requires a level of economic stability that many among the lower classes just do not have. Music and sport on the other hand (which are outlets which have historically allowed the lower classes to elevate themselves out of said poverty) usually have greater institutional outlets which may support such endeavours.This of course isn't to say that it's impossible or that people haven't come out of the lower echelons of the class structure and made an impact, simply that to think about this question in terms of material impact can go a long way into why such disparities exist. It's a question of time, education, support, etc.

I don't think the lyrics are appreciated by millions, the chorus at best, it just has to be cool to listen to

>pend weeks, months or years on end luxuriating on a particular turn of phrase or whatever

you're not a very good writer
