jumpin in...

personaly...going back to the Pac N big thing ...i do agree pac being the last originator..and yes...BIG did bite pacs shit...but they r prime examples of how the $$$$ affects judgement and fogz perception...think..BIG and PAC were tight when both were still not mainstream and somewhat underground...when the 2 of em got richer, the more distance and resentment due to fake peeps infiltrating...& the media that sparked the east/west beef based on Pac being crossed by his own homeboys...and the ongoing rape case he was framed in...which is another story and conspiricay and thread in itself..

hip hop's foundation back in the 80's was much more than a movement... it was a way of life...a medium to express the gov't opporession, deception, day to day struggle of poverty..exposing gov't lies ......the inner-city trap ...the numb-ness to the overload of CIA smuggled in crack ...all that is not relevant today...but really it is...

when cat's realized that beef was lucrative and profitable....WHat the fuck would u do???....battle back or pack ur backpack...cat's since the bridge...KRS1..LL...Kane..., EASY...early in the game made livings off of beefs......but where did all that bring us..

so should it be about restricting hip hop??.. FUCK NO! !!!!
i dont think there should be any restrictions...

Shit Rock music has no fucking restrictions...WTF the Manson Dude is a satan worshiper .....and packs his concerts..inspires kids to shoot up schools..
but hip hop gets its rap...and always will...

it is the strongest medium in which a revoloution can be created and started to create change...mass fuckin change....so the media will always consider it ganster..and negative...it will always be media managed...cuz cats in the game today are more willing to sell there souls to personify viloence instead exposing why its really happening..

all im sayin is that cats should be more concsious..MUCH more...
i aint hatin any raper that makes $$$$$ ..but when almost every... ....or 2/3's.... of almost every LP released nowadays is bout BEEF...then whats the solution???

money is the root of all evil... money is taking over rap being an art form...and expression of todays times..record compnaies want this shit the most.....its bout bottom line...


Conscious Cat's ..: ...Talib, Mos Def, Common, Guru, Tribe, Nas,,..2 name a few.....if these cat's had real radio play...they would kill dudes like 50...Nelly,...Puff....there should have no restrictions....in urs and my reality the conscious cats get more love...yet the media will never show this....the powers that be have an ulterior motive

So - Restrictions should come from within.

Suggestion ... A RAP COALITION , Conscious rapers as one nation....new reveloution
