Umm.
What the fuck is going on here. Jaz - for someone who regards themselves as someone who makes 'good music' and 'knows their shit' - you sure know how to speak some crap. While I can't be bothered nitpicking on all the ridiculous shit you've said about how 'hip hop isnt music' etc I will say that quality hip hop - as with any other genre is just that - quality.
Other points you said that really pissed me off include:
"I don't care whom it is, Hip-Hop is a freakin' joke musically speaking. Same shit that I make, so touche!"
It's not a 'freakin' joke' musically - unless of course you don't know what IS good musically - then again - you say it's the same as the mainstream stuffs you make so maybe you've answered your own point already.
"You can make a quality hip-hop song in like 2 hours if you wanted if you are trained with samplers and even a basic step sequencer, etc. Fun shit though!"
Sure - you can make a nice sounding series of loops that people can rhyme over in that time but I thought we were talking about writing actual quality tracks - which, forgive me if I'm wrong, would involve some significant degree of recording, production etc.
"white engineers are generally the ones that get the full thick sounding Hip-Hop songs to come out well, not street thugs"
What the fuck is this? So black people are street thugs huh?
"Hip-Hop and Trip-Hop, virtually the same concept."
yeah - in the same way that emo might be classified as being the same as hardcore...
"most of the Hip-Hop I've heard live sounded like feedback rubbish. "
well maybe you should stop seeing shit. For someone who considers themselves to be so 'adept' musically you sure don't seem to know shit about what you're talking about.
