ok.

I have come to this conclusion.

hip hop is not doomed as long as the "back bone" of rap stays real and strong. But at the moment the backbone isnt getting the recognition they deserve. There is a limit on how much "pressure" or bending of the game they can take, and will soon break.

When i say break, I mean they will be like "fuck it" let them milk our beloved culture for everything it is worth.

But on that note, the real allways win over the fake.ALLWAYS.

I spose in away, i want hip hop to die. when I say die, i mean mainstream die. that way it can go back to the esence of the culture, the real culture. not this pop shit that is being classed as hip hop now.

I was watching the "hip hop top 10 countdown" on MTV today... Its bullshit... Beyonce, Usher, some usher wannabe, some beyonce wannabe... Only decent song on there was like toy soldiers... But damn... half the shit was seriously just pop done by black people... stupid stereotypes -_-

yeh,tv and radio think if its a black person behind the mic, and theres a beat in the backround its hip hop.
I think rap should now have a sub name. for all those twisting the real rap music into this mainstream b/s we hear now.

*slam's door and leaves*

MTV used to not even play black music anyway, so they'll never rep Hip Hop right. I don't watch MTV, but i am dissapointed at BET though, even though i like how they don't play Eminem any more.
