The State Of Hip Hop...

For the longest time i been tryin to explain to people about this whole topic of hip hop being dead and underground hip hop especially being dead but in reality, neither of the cultures are dead and neva will be..Although corporate america , u know (the money man, the sugar daddy of it all) are the ones responsible and that includes the Corporate America fans (which is the youth of our society) , the true hip hop listeners are also playin part in this madness...instead of saying hip hop is dead or this shyt is wak, or the radio is playing garbage, get up, get out and look around you...i bet there are a good handfull of MC's right in ya own hood, burbs, skool, whereva that will tear u a new asshole when it comes to this music shyt....MUSIC CAN NEVA DIE, but MUSIC CAN BE IGNORED..and then passed on for the likes of say "RichBoy(boy looka here) or all that crack,gun talk music(not hating but its not my cup of yak)...i mean truly, we are the ones who need to change the ways of the hiphop culture. We are all getting older so we need to be openminded when the music phases change...We're all responsible....Open ya ears....anythin intelligent is needed in today's culture....and the KIDS are the ones who are being influenced the most...easily impressed by fashion, drugs, guns and all that other bullshyt that floods the radio....But a conscience quote or verse is too much for them to understand???? gimme a dammm break like Nel Carter.... HIP HOP IS EVERYWHERE...buy into it...go to ya local mom and pop stores, local venues where someone from ya hood is opening up for somebody...i bet you'll find what chu been missin weither u wanna accept them or not....TRUE HIP HOP IS RIGHT UNDER YA NOSES.....wake up people...dont let Corporate America dictate whats hot and whats not....u be the judge of true music.........~ASAP~ Another Smooth Ass Prophet
