I think one of the reasons I've had success in hip-hop is that I can bring out vulnerability in people who are generally seen as tough guys.

Even criticism is more interesting when the writer's authority does not only come through this omniscient narrator, but through questions, ambivalence, vulnerability. A mind questioning and on the move, not just settling down and declaring - that's one of the most interesting possibilities.
