Hip Hop is dying down

Could be, I am no expert, but I see Hip-Hop more a message than just mere music. And as long as the issues are there, Hip-Hop will never die.

IMHO, Rap is more like Pop, more noise than message.

Your no expert? You've got the same definition as I do. Some people say Rap are words and that Hip Hop is a way of living, too.

To me, Hip Hop is poetry and right now it's pretty rich. Now, sure, the radio and TV is full of un-talented morons, but I love my selected group of artist.

Hip Hop is alive and kicking to me, make no mistake!

didn't think it was better than Laugh now, cry later but still a decent effort by Busta.
Still it is a shame that the sales don't match his effort on the album, even with the massive advertising and promotion he got, the sales figures are rather disappointing for Busta, and he definetely would've cared.

liked the clip for his latest single, I could just tell either Dre or Eminem would make a cameo appearance.

Gangsta rap still exists in every coast, and id consider these guys rap compared to 50 cent Saz..who I consider to be mainstream pop..yes ill go that far.

Rap has gone down big time yes, but if you know where to look theres enough good shit being released...

My boy hal diddy won't say it so I'll just get it out for him: Bay area is all you need.

SoCal is still poppin too. Lots of hungry, young artists out there.

^Hip hop is no better than Rock/Metal...

If your going to flood our thread with this non-sense, please just forget about it. You can go bash Hip Hop and all that good stuff in the Flamers Paradise, but this thread wasn't created for opinions on if it is good or how it compares to other genres of music.

Do not take this the wrong way, I just do not like this type of attitude. Tired of hearing about it.

 

[Executioner]

Ok mate I'm sorry...

What ya'll think of DMX's new album?

Dmx is the only rapper I like atm

I really haven't bought it yet but I'm planning to, since I heard 2 of them on the internet and I liked them.

 

[Gaetan]

Thanks for understanding where I'm coming from.

Never been a big fan of DMX or the Ruff Ryders myself. But, I've watched a show or two of his reality TV show where he is trying to get himself out to the public and basically promote himself, and boy is he a mess. It really seems like his life is winding down and he's close to hitting rock bottom.

I may be exagerrating but you get the point.

 

[Lamb of God]

breathe with me, stay with me, fight with me, roll with me,be afraid coz we are coming, be very afraid we are hearing what youre saying.break your neck in a similar fashion twist your neck with a severe effect.chorus we will kill all the ****ers in this world with fighter blades sunrise above shitty waves.hey guys what you think of my band lyrics im thinking of starting a band with me being the lead singer.

 

[Adriano@10]

Jurassic 5 work it out :star: the video clip is great!!
cant wait to hear the whole album

 

[snake]

Am I the only one picking up all these new albums lately? And please by that I dont mean Busta Rhymes and etc...


Catanha, the new Hollow Tip isnt too bad but the best album was finally hearing Bo Loc's voice after finally being released from Prison, album inclused SP from Youngbloodz(south) and rappers from the East..not to mention some great WC appearences.

Bald Head Nut is back.

 

[catanha]

I think you are helal.
I've lost a bit of interest, but still keeping an eye on some albums coming out soon (ie. Jedi Mind tricks).....

Haven't read much on HT's new one, should I give it a go? When giving me advice, remember this; forza Lebanon!

ps. a plea to all fellow rap fans (mainly the little mainstream freaks)...
check the following out:

if anyone can somehow find out for me what the name of the 'lady' who says 'badaba' the second time (I realise how stupid this sounds) in the clip is, please share....

 

[snake]

dunno who she is, much hotness though.

Anywhere HT's is ok, but seriously as I said grab the new C-bo and a couple of the new Mess albums.

 

[akasha]

Ok first to clear some things out.

Hip hop and rap are not separate genders of music.First of all hip hop its not the music hip hop its the life style.Rap is the music that represents hip hop.


Now more on music : any one has the album : wu tang clan meats indie culture?

It totaly rulz
