Thirteen year old Marshall Mathers sat in a bathroom stall, quietly eating his lunch. It was a daily routine for him at the middle school in order to avoid bullies and young gangsters.

Victor had nervously opened the door of his lab, prepared to build his monstrous creature’s companion. His heart was a drum making a steady, but quick beat and his legs had been shaking. He had tried to wipe his hands on the side of his coat, but utterly failed. Victor’s unorganized lab was full of machines that lay all over the ground. The room was dimly lit and had overflowed beakers that left tiny pools of strange liquids. As soon as Victor had entered the lab, he smelled the chemicals from…

Hip Hop is one of the most entertaining type of music. Do you agree? I find Hip Hop to be the most appealing type of music to me.
