It's his gimmik, that's why he stood out. Paz has religion, Greydon Square has atheism, Tech has politics, Chino XL and Eminem both have the edgy bashing, and Canibus has science.
What about the fact that every song you could bring up of his and label as "metaphysical bullshit" is the shit no one likes. That's like characterizing Em as a rapper by posting "Fack". Get the fuck out of here. Canibus said some of the most wicked shit ever on a mic. Period.
I agree with you, Canibus is great at what he does, all I'm saying is people who critisise mainstream artists and praise 'Bis are the worst kind - he tried to go mainstream, he tried to sell out, but failed - he isn't underground by choice, and either are most underground rappers

Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
