backpack 

Rap, whose market is primarily white, young, and of affluent parents.

Most fans might prefer this rap to more hardcore, gangsta rap because it seems to be conscious of social issues, and ignores popular mainstream topics (such as blunts, 40s, and bitches).

What most fans fail to realize is that this rap will most likely never go down in history. The true innovators in rap are appreciated by the masses, because they made a difference.

These men include Biggie, Tupac, The Wu-Tang Clan, and early Nas.

These men transcended the stupid backpack that antagonizes their words, and the legacy they left behind. The told stories, used unique musical inflections, and showed people the many sides and complexities of the hood, and the people within it.

Backpack rappers often justify their music with overly artsy beats, and flows that just...well, aren't happening...at least not nearly on the level of those mentioned above.

Biggie is the modern day Beethoven -> narrating almost as a third person observer. a dual character...like tupac

ODB is like T.Monk, Stravinsky or even Jackson Pollack. He destroys boundaries with a pseudo-operatic style, all the while being aware of the lines he is crossing.

Read about these men...and their backgrounds.

I'm going to shut up now...Backpack rapping often seeks to rebel for rebellion's sake. It is most often very cheesy, and few, if any backpack rappers will go down in history.
1.Inexperienced, overly-cerebral kid: This beat is so tight..check it (turns up music)

Hood gansta he shouldn't be hanging out with: Yea aiggght...(rat-ta-tat-tat blau blau!!!)

(dude who shot the kid doesn't know about the term backpack...but hears simply unexciting bullshit)

2. Kid 1: Check this verse...

Girl he is trying to impress: oh...that's so cool!! (yawn)

Kid 2: Too artsy for me man...this backpack shit gets old.

Backpack 

The one thing in the word that can single-handedly ruin your ass viewing experience (especially when they are wearing yoga pants).
"Dude, its that one girl with the nice ass that you were talking about. Oh crap she's wearing a backpack, nevermind."

Backpocket

1) A band or artist that is insanely good, but that no one knows about. They may have 1 or 2 songs on youtube, and the only place you can buy their music is on itunes.
2) A song or mixtape from a famous band or artist that you can only find through random downloads and links.
Hazen: Hey wait, have you ever heard of the Spokes?
Lee: No man, they must be backpocket.
Hazen: *shakes head in disappointment* that drags dude. They're too good.

backpack 

Guy code for referring to a girl under the age of eighteen. Can be either mentioned verbally or simply shown by making the motion of tugging on backpack straps on your shoulder.
That girl is hot, too bad she's a backpack.
