Hip-Hop is Dead
IP:
Hip-Hop is dead........the wise head said adjusting his dial
Turned it off, grabbed his ILLmatic CD......cracked a smile Reminisced of past classics, cringed at the current delusion Of the masses, confusin hip-hop's passing with evolution Commercial driven distribution of works devoid of spirit Stereotypical instrumentals drowned with shallow lyrics Frauds with facades, posing as pioneers of a Lost Art Ignorant of it's history, to preoccupied with pop charts And vivid depictions of fiction...........Urbanized warfare Disrespecting our women, the paraphernalia the wear, Seems silly and raises a query..............tragicaly derived ...................WHERE WERE YOU THE DAY HIP-HOP DIED? True a select few display breif resemblances of the past But the majority unfortunatly often fall short of that class Am I perverse if a verse from FIFTY don't really move me? If I fail to concive the creativity in the use of an oozie? If i'm uninspired by their tired rants of jewels n iced pendants? Rather be percived as God's Grandson, Nasir Jones descendant 18th Letter advocate..................unfinished Rakim apprentice Golden Age diciple.......well-learned observer of the vintage Tracks that so many so called fans misidentify as wack ................Playin my part to bring TRUE HIP-HOP back |
