Why is my statement ridiculous? Its true. Hip/Hop is good for making the girls dance. Most songs by Method, Immortal and T9 are rap with some hip/hop influence.

Tech 9 may not write lyrics that are as "dark" as immortals, but he flows much better and changes up his style much more frequently then the artists you mentioned. I don't listen to rap for life changing lyrics. Most of them have nothing to say that hasn't already been said. It's hard to find relative lyrics in Rap or Hip/Hop, which is why i think the genre is mainly for booty shaking.

If i wanted to listen to artists that have something fresh and relevant to say, I'll listen to Tool or Marilyn Manson

P.S, i don't listen to Radio Hip/Hop.

First off, KRS ONE DOES NOT SUCK. Q tip sucks outside of Tribe Called Quest (yes I said it).

Now, as far as mainly being for booty shaking, you are as far off base as the damn "purists". There's plenty of great hip hop out there and just because you can't find/appreciate/understand good lyrical content doesn't mean the genre is mainly for booty shaking (although a good portion is).

BTW aren't you the huge Three Six Mafia fan that thinks they are classic hip hop?
