ok.... but if hip hop isn't dying and you say it's "evolving" or "Transforming" then as you say it's "Transforming" in to something that hip hop should have never been about....i hate when you see videos like Lil'Flip's "This is the way we ball" and he's talkin a bunch a shit like ridin on 22's and people say that's "Original Hip Hop" and even tho those people are MOTHAFUCKIN RETARDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It pains me deeply when that shit is said...cuz hip hop is getting more fans that don't know WHAT THE FUCK THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!!! If people were more educated then that would solve questions like "How can an artist (50 Cent) make the biggest bullshit album and still sell over 20million copies?" You say not to stereotype but it's actually true....so..........fuck it....facts don't lie

hip-hop ain't dead, dying, clouding, or any other shit like that
its CHANGING- any music genre doesnt stay the same forever, rap is no exception

clouded????or u mean crowded......lol yea it is crowded.....yea too much wack artist like Dem franchis boys and some others but who cares that how it is.....
