It's not about lyrics anymore, it's about a hot beat and a catchy hook

[Eminem]
If we gotta dumb down our style and ABC it
Then so be it
.Cause nowadays these kids, jeez
Don't give a [bad word] about lyrics
All they wanna hear is a beat and that's it
Long as they can go to the club and get blitz
Pick up some chicks and get some digits
And the DJ's playing them hits
Oh, this my jam, this my [bad word] 
We don't know a word to a verse,
All we know is the [bad word] 
'Cause the [bad word] repeats the same four words for us
And the songs ginormous, the whole formula's switched
'Cause we don't know anymore, what are hits
Is it the beat, is it the rap?
Is it a finger snap or the same 808 clap?
And how do we adapt and get TRL votes
When 13 year olds control the remote
And Ashley's got a brand new nose
We gotta put some new emphasis on our syllables

[Jay-Z]
If the emphasis on [bad word] disc isn't the beat
Than I'm gonna feature EM and get rich
And let Dre mix the [bad word] and drive off in the Range Ro
'Cause everywhere I go they love the bling bling flow
Bang bang look at the way my chain glow
The ring on my fing' cost Jermaine a lot of dough, oh
The [bad word] am I busting my brain for?
It's just the way the game go, oh, it takes 2 to tango
You call this a lame flow
You bought the [bad word] 
I guess you to blame too
I just found the angle
No more reality flow
I'm tryna time my album dropping with a reality show
 [bad word] the Mac 11 in front of Hot 97
And call my publicist, tell her, "We're in press heaven"
No one gives a [bad word] except some kids who just got into  on the Internet
So you want the chat room or the house of Malibu, Em?
Your emphasis is on the wrong syllable

[Dr Dre]
They said 30's the new 20
Funny, must mean 40's the new 30
Interesting 'cause ever since then it's been innocence
An extension for veteran rappers that are better than half
Of the [bad [bad word] out right now
It's all trash
The torch is gonna burn out before it gets passed
Jay said it's his last and 50 and 
Then what? Detox drops what we got then
So now our whole camps [bad word] around scrambling over what to do
Gambling everytime we put a record out
Just looking for that hook

[Eminem]
(Wait, Dre, look)
Shorty I love you
And you love me too
We were meant to be 'cause shorty
You love me
And I love you too
And I promise I'll be [bad word] to you

[50 Cent]
Go shorty, it's your birthday
You made it just in time to hear my wordplay
It's the kid that flip flows who used to flip O's
 [bad word] for days used to see how I get hoes
I'm international, I get my [bad word] licked round the globe
I'm sick right into shows, riding on lolo's
Puffing on coco, my [bad word] in Manolo's
Don't [bad word] with the dodo's, that's slang for dumb hoes
I playing, I ain't got time to joke, joke
You [bad word] around, you could get your [bad word] smoked lock,
It's not a game, me B, I ain't playing
Beat behind me playing, so you ain't hear anyway
You don't hear what I'm saying
Me fin-nini-na
Fee-fi-dididee-yay
Just give me my check and I'll be on my way
Sunny bunny money and funny
You ain't even listening and I just took your money

[Stat Quo]
There once was a time everywhere he turned
Shady aftermath was all you heard
But they say 50 sang too much
And got soft
And they say Dre just fell the [bad word] off
Well, [bad word] the " [bad word] off"s
All y'all eat salt, be mad, we bad fresh up outta the vault, oh!
New syllables eat ball, you [bad word] off's
Your house, your [bad word] I'm getting sucked off
East, south, midwest, even up north
Falling victim to wax, spitting, bring out the white chalk
All for the gingerbread, we get it and get lost
Catch me if you can, I'
