I know most on here loves hip hop I am not a big fan of today's hip hop. Knowing that most of you love the world of hip hop I did not mean to be on the other side of the tracks but hip hop is the new slavery for our young people. They listen to the ignorance in it they try to abide by it because in it they believe are teachings. When someone makes an album that says wear white tee's that is what our children put on. When someone says let the sag our kids look like they are in prison. This slavery of the mind is constant because those who would uplift in their hip hop songs are not on the main stream because that is not what the average hip hop person wishes to hear for they do not like to be uplifted. Nowadays most do not make it through high school are we raising hip hop fools. I was told that poetry was hip hop I told the person NOOOOO for poetry is a constant teacher Hip hip is a slavery. So to those who would disagree understand I love my people but dislike ignorance. ------------- Real Thoughts of a Real Man |

It takes all kinds to make a world,
Poetry is in the senses of the beholder.
Further I never really defend Hip Hop. Hip Hop is not on trial.
LOL been a long time sinse I saw the word coon in play....
My tribe and I have an understanding, we speak for clarity, crystal clear, and understand eachother.
Surreal please share what Hip Hop you do listen to...
What artists particularly do you think is worthless, or bad for our youth?

I am not a fan of hip hop but there are a few who say things in their background that I will defend as rappers not hip hop artist because I fee there is a big difference. Rappers use to teach in their words hip hop artist do not. Believe it or not here is my short list of today. Nas Kanye West Common I heard he is still out here- Rakim well that is all. !!, Phgda`tr $ B` , `b |

that's the good list or bad list?
I've been diggin common for a while, Nas can hit the spot some times for me, and Kanye seems to be trying to stay true to form so far, he is not reaching, I mean his music is believable, not fantasy.
I said this 100 times and here goes 101, I love to experience the work of a tortured artists, it's like they are crying out.
As a woman, I have admitted that some hip hop is empty created by the stakeholders more so than the artist. I feel what my truest brothers are doing with their music.
in an interview Pac said that his music was loved by many, but some only enjoy the sound. He said he was really trying to touch those feeling stuck
"livin' in the projects
broke with no lights on
to all the seeds that follow me
protect yo' essense
born with less but
u still precious"
that is from ones heart, and mind
he was addressing the lived experiences of poor people, down trodden, hopelessness r/t the status quo.
Some of my brothers are indeed saying something.
