I agree with alotta shit defending hip-hop! Hip-Hop is the most universal genre in my mind cuz it derives from pretty much everything. I think krazy chino named alot of my personal favorites.
Oh yeah, and hip-hop ain't dead......we just need to stop being fooled by weak-ass gimik rappers and keep what's real on top! ......and as for the the underground shit (to whoever says it isn't important) not all of it is good, but where do you think our greatest rappers came from?
tha_green_ghost Reviewed by tha_green_ghost on . The Real Hip-Hop Appreciation Thread ...it isn't quite dead yet. Just not on your tv or radio. If you appreciate Nas and Jay, The Lox, The Roots, Common (new album end of the month) Mos, Kweli, Joe Budden, Lupe, Rakim, old school cats like Daddy Kane, Cassidy, Fab, Papoose, Saigon or any other artist thats still making good music Recommended Tracks for the day: Joe Budden: Dumb Out, 3 Sides to a Story Lupe Fiasco: Twilight Zone Jay-Z: Ignorant Shit The Roots: Clock with no Hands; What they do Light up and zone out...1 Rating: 5
