Back in the day it was the technics1200 that changed hiphop. Then it was the MPC that progressed it. Then the desktop computer. And today its the Canon 5D.

at the end of the day, sales are driven by semi-retarded 13 y/o girls, so the music has to reflect and cater to this demographic.
- Beastie Boy's Paul's Boutique was considered a failure in terms of sales. But most pple consider that album a landmark in hiphop.
err - in hiphop
err - exactly. 13 y/o girls didin't buy it, they bought He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper._niko
- ta!jon_d
- incorrect. The first time I heard Beastie Boys was at a 13 year old girl's house, blasting "girls"ThePublics

Using your voice as an instrument, adds a third dimension to
hip hop, that i don't think has ever been explored.

there is always ebb and flow in all music genres..
mainstream anything generally is pretty whack..there is lots of good hip hop coming out, i guess it is just harder to hear it under all the clatter and noise from the major label bling bling wannabe's.
hiphop is not dead any more than dubstep is..
all skrillex did was repackage it from stoners in hoodies to hipsters in ray ban frames..

Hip Hop is entering its own "Hair Metal" phase.

- quick example... when i started to dj in the 90's, it was simple, 1200's, vinyl, vestax mixerprophetone
- do you have any idea how many djing options there are now? it's crazy.prophetone
- most allow you to simply skip the basics because they're almost all software-based... everyone is a dj nowprophetone
