Rap is just bad poetry... plain and simple.
Now, as if that was more important then the subject, you can make it better if you weren't... eh... defining the female figure as a piece of meat. Deeper things call for deeper meanings, deeper meanings call for knowing one's deeper self, knowing one's deeper self is simply knowing yourself. You won't get anywhere with poems that try and relate to other people who'll praise you for writing about a girl's thighs, those aren't the people you want to reach. When you write, write for yourself, write to express yourself. Do *not* follow along with a trend, the whole point in poetry and basically any form of art is thinking outside the box were others fear to venture because of being different from the group.
