^NOOOO!! PLEASE DON'T!
we gotta keep it to the artists...the board is already confusing as/is to locate threads. Eminem is an urban artist..he belongs in this genre.

T.I belongs here and so does eminem. this is a RAP song not a pop song. it may be a pop hit but it is an urban/rap song.

Timbaland, B.o.B, 3OH!3, Flo Rida, Travie McCoy & Soulja Boy (just to name a few of the many) all have threads in Pop.

timbaland isn't a "rapper" and his songs feature the guest artist more than his own vocals. 3OH!3 is not rap at all LOL..just LOL Flo Rida should be urban. Travie McCoy/BOB idk what genre they falls under because their sound is very pop..it might be because of the more rock sound to their beats...idk. they could be pop or urban. soulja boy is trash and idc where his threads end up...i never am looking for them.

eminem is a RAPPER...not a "trick" rapper..where he has catchy "beats" or relies on feature artists to get a hit. he is all about the art of rapping. this is a rap song. and so are all of his other songs.

because bottom line is 90% of all songs experience some sort of cross over sucess so i think it's important to sort the songs by artists within the genre. it's like how you would classify you songs in iTunes. i'm 99% sure you have "Love The Way You Lie" labeled as hip-hop/rap//etc. and NOT pop..and that is because Em is an urban artist.

How is Timbaland not a rapper? He raps. 3OH!3 is rap. Flo Rida has his songs in Pop Travie and BOB......they RAP but they are in pop Yes, Eminem is a "real" rapper but this song IS NOT A RAP SONG! I mean yes he is rapping in it, but it is a song made for pop radio therefore it should have a pop thread. the reason I want it to be in pop besides the fact it should be is because I want people to discuss it. No one comes in to this section ever.

no one comes into the other forums is because eveyone throws songs into pop that do not belong there.
timbaland may have been rap at one point in his career...not anymore. 3oh!3 is laughable that you think that is rap. LOL it's talk sing like ke$ha...not rap. B.o.B is more rap IMO than travie for some reason IDK why tho...i am confused with their genres.

3oh3 is rap? Give me a break.
And just because you rap doesn't mean you're a rapper. Linkin Park rap...they don't belong here. Timbaland was a rapper back in like 1998 lol.

THANK YOU KP!
and it doesn't matter what genre you are in if people want to talk abou the song they will... the only "big threads" in pop are like Katy, Miley, GaGa, XTina...basically all stupid music.

^Okay, so how about Richy Nix then? ;D I hear Limp Bizkit are back in action. ;D
But in all seriousness, I agree with Brian. Our system was created to keep things simple. Keep songs where people would expect to look for them. These are not sections based on formats, but based on genres.

It's why Hey, Soul Sister is still in the Rock/Alt genre because Train is a Rock/Alt group...HSS IS a pop song..but all of the songs by an artist should be in ONE genre. All the Eminem songs should be kept in Urban All the Train songs should be Rock All of the 3Oh!3 IMO could be rock/alt as well because it's more alternative to me..but pop is fine..but THEREFORE al of 3Oh3's future songs should be kept in pop with all of their previous singles.
it makes looking for threads much easier..there is no need to guess which genre the individual song did best on.
