What rappers can play musical instruments? (no MPC)

[blackrain]

I've seen Flavor Flav (Public Enemy) play the drums before...

He wasn't ?uestlove but you could tell it wasn't his first time.

Flavor Flav can actually play a bunch of instruments...he's musically talented like shit he just pretends to be as crazy as people think he is

Why? Does it really matter?

actually yeah it would...you can tell by the types of music artist who can play instruments make vs. those that don't...you hear the music differently when you can create rather than having it made for you...you can taylor it more to be exactly what you want

So playing an instrument somehow makes you better emcee or something?

Shenco, you're a talented guy. In fact, the only artist on here remotely close to me lyrically... but you'll realize sooner or later that the division between different crafts within music is an illusion. The sooner you figure that out for yourself, the better. It's a psychological thing. Learn an instrument for your own good.
