what some people need to realise about hip hop.
 

i know alot of u allready agree with what im about to say(or atleast to an extent) but this is for those who are too dumb to realise it.

hip hop was created as expression of self, it was not created to drop catchy hooks to get millions of 13 year old girls to sing along with.

you need to realise the difference between rap music(50 cent shit like that) and hip hop(krs one, dilated peoples, roots e.t.c).

you also need to realise we can say anything we want about anybody(mainstream or underground) why??? cos its personal opinion, but not only that, saying we cant talk about mainstream rappers is false... we cant say anything cos theyre rich???? fame and fortune means nothing in the REAL world of hip hop(im talkin real hip hop not hip POP). anybody can make a song with 1 syllable rhymes with generic gun talk with no metaphores or similies or any imagination or effort put into the lyrics.... but again that isnt what hip hop is about, and shit like that is an insult to the culture.

money has turned hip hop into something it shouldnt be, im not saying the money in hip hop is a bad thing, but people now are using money to drive them instead of passion(eminem said that drove him more after his first couple albums did than the passion did).

but understand, just cos we arent rich and famous does not mean we cant say anything about them. EVERYBODY is a critique and has the right to voice their opinion.

fuck g-unit, fuck nelly, fuck mike jones, fuck ying yang twins, fuck master p, fuck ja rule, fuck any other trash mainstream pop rapper. they all suck, and got successe through nothing but clever marketing and gullable teenage wannabes that were made to beleive they are the greatest through clever marketing.

^word up.

none of my favorite rappers are on a lunch box.

wow, u took the time to b a dumbass

wat do u really no about wat we do in AMERICA?

i will giv u da satisfaction that ur right about hip hop n rap, but u cant say shit about mainstream n how we view it over here

wow you really hate commercial hip hop huh... I could give a fuck less right about now I used to feel the same way you do but shit at the end of the day keep it real and lyrical is a good thing and all but the money to feed a nigga family ain't always there I ain't tryna be bummin it jus to keep it real and lyrical I see guys do it all the time they look bummed out like really bad but they flow tight and lyrics but it ain't helpin a nigga eat and makin a Indie label with no buzz is hella hard and that still take money investment which alot of real and lyrical cats don't have... I ain't hatin on them shit make your money and live cause shit if somebody handed me some big label deal and the contract was legit I'd sign an be th hardest commercial rapper to ever come from a vagina and I'd make songs for the club and all that shit fuck it as long as the bank role is steady I'll make wack songs people think is catchy but on the other note I'd still bless the underground and do songs with local and nationally known heads and do battles and all the lil small time shit

Its not like America and the UK are completely different worlds. Half of americas music and TV gets aired in the UK, and american crap is always on the news. He has seen american people through sites like this and the media.

no im not say'n he doesnt c the american muzic i'm say'n that he has no idea wat we actually do here, he doesnt no wat the niggas down the street from me think about rap, n i dont mean that literally, like there acually down the street

hip hop did start off as a self expression thing......but i'm sorry to break it to ya like this...but those days are over...so all anyone can do is deal with it....now rap music is about if you are appealing to an audience....if so then obviously you'll have a better chance of "making it"..but if you don't..then thats just not gonna cut it....these people that are big right now....they have music and an image that are appealing........and thats just how its gonna be..

you got the wrong approach bruh...

I was thniking about it for a while and uhh..yup...you're definitely one of the stupidest people I've ever seen.

take a bow.

mic young is a mindless living in side the square fucking joke of a human.

Hisnt repping hip hop. He is a pop culture sucess story. He has been fooled into the new found generic mainstream backlash of our culture.
congrats you fucking idiot.

word up leady.

lmao
wow, these niggaz really is serious, fuck u

Its just cause you dont even realize that mainstream music is actually shit. Sure, those dudes gotta get paid but you're kidding yourself if you say the music they make is good.

btw im talking about that crunk trash and shit like it, not ALL mainstream. For example, guys like snoop dogg make ill music.

Who the fuck thinks 50 Cent does hip hop?

99% of the population?
