On a slow news day, the BBC "reports" some rules about a summer hit tune. In summary:
- It has to be simple.
- It should make you feel like you're on holiday.
- Novelty is everything.
- Radio-friendly songs make bigger hits.
- It should be released before the summer.
- But it should have the word "summer" in the title.
If simplicity and novelty are the most important then this summer's hit could be Beep! Beep! I'm A Sheep!

I don't disagree with anything you said. I used the distinction between 'hip-hop' and 'rap stars' to illustrate a point, for people with no exposure to anything outside the typical 'club banger' rap hits from Rick Ross and the like, it wasn't a dismissal of rap in general. I'm a big fan of Freddie Gibbs, as an example.
