Alright, I like this song. And apparently there are other things I don't like as much.

Now. It's like that time. So early in the morning...(10:33 am) agguuugh

Anyway, just when I think my life is over Old School Hip Hop comes back to save the day!


Oh Gosh...this is so good. What a rockin beat. And nobody has to be acting like a street level gangster. This is why I like Hip Hop. It's such a good venue for creation and creativity. For self expression. But most of what I hear on the radio is a bunch of street level thugs acting tough. That's why I seldom listen to the radio these days. It's probably one of the worst things that's ever happened to anything's representation in the media ever, because it influences impressionable kids to believe they have to be criminals or do bad things to other people in order to be cool. But they don't. It tells young black kids that this is the only way you can be accepted in the united states society. Not to try to aspire to be anything but another cocky gangster thug pimp without any aspirations to go further than your street corner. Unless you get their by being "gangster". I can't stand it.

O.k now that I've done ranting for a bit, check out this cool song! And just in case you think there is no good Hip Hop out there, go buy the Deltron 3030 album, and their new release promises to be good too.

Anyway, yeah this post was a little bit all over the place wasn't it? Hahaha

Check out this GREAT article by Homeboy Sandman about the lack of topical diversity in hip hop today. bitly.com/TYbVI2
