It's not really my thing, but hey; it worked for TWEWY, so maybe it'll work here. Video game music has been so dominated by rock ever since the NES days that it's good to see some experimentation with other genres.
I am, however, a little surprised to see that more people aren't angry about the implicit tie the game makes between hip-hop and violence by making these both major marketing points. I'm not either, but this seems like the sort of thing that would make a lot of people very mad.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
