i listen to everything i've got time to listen to.. regardless of genre, mostly shit that's not on the radio.
all i'm saying is that the shit on the radio is created by talented cats that have just as much to do with the 'culture' as anyone else. they just happen to be making a living off of it.
i get really tired of the whole elitest idea of your hip hop and my hip hop. it's all a load of shit
the music has always had it's ugly side and thats what made it worth listening to.. cuz it was honest.
bboys always had tehir corner on the dancefloor, but most people just dont give a damn (dont get me wrong, i'm part of one of the well known bboy crews in chicago), and i don't blame them...
graff writers don't give a fuck about hip hop and most graff is shit anyways...
there are incredible ideas behind the whole thing, but there's also a shitload of bad ones, and the whole thing will never change as long as elitest cats go out of thir way to split it into 'ours' and 'theirs'.
