Am i the only person who thinks Ham has no taste? I mean when you eat french polony you can taste it, but Ham...I'm never eating that stuff again!
I always say; it's not Hip Hop it's rather certain individuals within Hip Hop. Music (especially Hip Hop) is suppose to be a reflection of one's lifestyle. If I'm a pimp i.e I'm mostly surrounded by whores you can't expect me to call them Soul sisters.
When Dre, Snoop etc talk about whores and drugs they talking about what happens in their lives (granted, this might be fabricated). Hip Hop is just a reflection of the world, there are serial killers out there who would find relevance in Jak Progresso's claims about stalking women (check our own houdini Mathe), there are people who've taken as much drugs as Cage has and hate their fathers as much.
There are also Mceez out there who spit thought provoking stuff or soul soothing stuff, to name a few; Illogic, Akrobatik, Our own Hymphatic Thabz, Talib Kweli, Common sense, Aesop Rock and abo LP, Last Days Fam, Tumi, Zubz, Proverb, Ben sharpa etc.
Now oddly enough, mainstream media will play you a video where Nelly swipes a card through some chick's a** crack and not play you maybe Brand Nubian's time is running out or Eyedea's here for you etc. And then the same media has talk shows, articles etc about what a bad influence Hip hop is when they were actually quite comfortable not digging beneath the surface.
Just like one chooses the life he wants to live and the friends he has, one chooses the music he listens to. The burden then lies on Nelly to explian to his kids why he swiped that card on that a**, it lies on Eminem to explain under the influence and Kim (f***, the whole Marshall Mathers LP and more). It also lies on you to explain to your kids why you listen to that.
I'll play my son that thought provoking conscoius ish, then the only explaining ima have to do is breaking down the complex rhyme schemes.
do you honeslty blame the media for saying such stories about rappers and them entertainment dues? i mean seriously, anyone defending the morality and positivity of rappers is just being ignorant and arrogant, face the facts man, rappers are f***ing the scoiety women and children up, ofcoz there are a few rappers who give back to the commnuity and who are dedicated and responsible father figures
the rap industry is filled with irresposnible and wreckless people who only make music to make money for alcohol and drugs, how many times have you heard stories about rappers getting sued for maintainance? the rap industry is f***ed up my man, these f***ers dont care about the people around them, the only thing that matters to them is sipping expensive drinks and wearing the finest clothes, how many rappers put thier kids on vidoes just for the world to see the precious gift that god has given them?
my man im a huge hip hop fan, i eve got the underground shit that you did with skam, lol but when it comes to rappers and their morality, i take the durag off my head and hide behind a pastor
Heads are repping about their kids now instead of baby moma drama, niggaz is trying to build,play for keeps instead of pimpin now and i dont mean Lil wayne or T.I youngin'
Heads have created positive songs-check ur playlist. Game is not married for example but he stays with his kid, Xzibit is always posing with jr and so is Ludacris. Upcoming heads with academic qualifications now find it more amusing doing conceptual songs with a positive message E.G Jakki-God vs Satan da album. There will always be that air head claimin he from da gutter and now he's makes pop or makes it rain, their damn lingo aint even English no more. Its all about what they stand for and if they wanna grow from boys to man.
NOT EVERYTHING YOU HEAR AND SEE IS WORTH LISTENING.
heres an example of whom you probably idolise!DMX, in and out of the joint and guess what he got Gout and a family that he's going to loose.
http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/news/id.8493/title.dmx-sentenced-to-hard-time
for your record, i dont idolize dmx, his just a rapper to me, your aurgument is laid out dog for real. takes this to the highcourt and ud get a death sentence, lets talk about the influence of hiphop to the youth, what is it that rap has done for the youth?
lets quit all these lame arguments about rap being an inspirational music, you motherf***ers are to blame for the downfall of your own music, you create all this f***ing mess and now you expect the public to say some good shit about you? the f***? get outta here man, we all know 80% of rappers are disrectfull and rude sons of hookers, the only thing rappers care about is being rich and telling other people to suck dicks and that they are pussies and just shooting innoncent kids, plotting murders and organizing crime
PICS OR FAIL
Your a** has failed, these chicks are fat you stinking chubby chaser.
baldi aint big...
not matter how you slice it, as a source of SA hip hop:
Hype > AG (in its present state)
Strongly disagree.
Content generated by heads on AG in terms of unheard artists and gigs doesn't compare to HYPE.
We may not get the full written articles or reviews but there is news here. A lot of bullshyt that we can't edit like a mag does but it can be if this website was run properly.
Can't confidently say it for AG but Sheetstreet is better than HYPE.
nah dude. the news on this site isn't updated - making it non-news. and the forums are chocful of marginally hip hop related bullshit. and anyway, whenever anything solid is done here it gets a mention in that mag too. this joint is dead, yo.
So why are you here?
Anyway, HYPE is not AG and vice versa. HYPE provides a bimonthly snapshot of SA hip-hop, with some nice stories and more indepth features. AG is like a continually running news feed, full of rumours, gossip, hot tracks from all over the world, little nuggets of truth and seriously entertaining bullshit. It's like a slightly twisted RSS feed.
If I need a piece of info about a hip-hop artist, AG is where I come. If I need good solid reading, I get HYPE.
I had to dig this up just for Blac. He staylosing ha ha ha ha.
