Answers: In reality, it's skill. I could careless what a rapper looks like.
But nowadays little girls love off guys that make hip hop if they look like lil bow wow or souljah boy.
Like I said before, do you really think Crank That would be a popular song if the little girls didn't think Souljah Boy was SOOOO CUTE!!!!
pfft...

skill is more important to real hip hop fans. but many rappers (50 Cent) their image is the reason for their success

Skills are NECESSARY!!! One can look as bummy as they want to on the cd cover, but if the rhymes stop ya dead in your tracks, IT DON'T MATTER.
