Can anyone suggest any grammatically correct rap/hip hop?

I dont mind the swearing, glorification of violence, abject sexism, materialistic idolatry, and outright bragging but when I look at the back of a rap CD and read the songs, the spelling mistakes annoy me. Im pretty sure this is deliberate.

I doubt spelling, and grammar was a forte of someone growing up in "the hood".

@chrisCA no I think they're just trying to be cool by spelling 'that' as 'dat' and so on.

@Jm31xxx I agree. Many middle class kids try to sound cool by using street lingo.
