Some of it stayed on the track but some of it was also knocked off causing damage. The parts knocked off track is Hip Hop music. What can you expect when you have trees not knowing their roots? They become fruitless and self-destruct becoming natural sell-outs. If we can get Hip Hop music back to its essence it will not cause any more damage. If we can institutionalize Hip Hop culture as a whole, without lustfully branding it like a corporate whore and give it back as “the people’s voice,”� it will thrive.</p><p>I could not agree more whit your opinion as i share it myself. i had to say that i enjoyed reading your "article". belive me i tryed to like,hear,feel the new age hip hop and it`s all about moneymaking nowdays and studio fertilized and you can sense that its not from the heart anymore. hip hop is allmost dead in my opinion but i am happy whit the oldschool music i have now. I grew up listening to my big brothers bumping hes hip hip music and he gave me tapes aswell, so the old school hip hop is transfered in my genes. but i really would like someone to kinda make a time line of the hip hop movement. you know the ones you had to make in the history class. i am itching to know more about my darest hobby and life style. please make a time line article about hip hop so i can get the picture form "zero" to the top, that would be so great. anyways love ur story telling. peace</p><p>note: bad grammar "n" english (^^,)__Y</p>k_dayThu, 16 Apr 2009 13:10:42 -0000
