Washington, Apr 8 : Rapper Busta Rhymes feels that rapid technological advancements are "dehumanising people".

The 36-year-old singer, real name Trevor Smith, admits while hi-tech gadgets are useful, the convenience is beginning to "dehumanising people" by reducing personal interaction.

"I like technology, but I don''t like what people are letting technology do to them. There''s a lot of things we couldn''t do without technology,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

The ‘Touch It’ hitmaker doesn’t even like texting. The crooner insists he would prefer to talk to people directly instead of sending messages.
