The Grammys are about as indicative of music quality as the Academy Awards are of movie quality.
You'd be saying different if you won an Academy Award.
Get back on thread, dude.

Nope. It's just the industry patting itself on the back. It's kind of revolting, actually.You'd be saying different if you won an Academy Award.

Back to the original topic:
Here's a classical example of two things.
1.) Race means nothing in hip hop. Shitty rappers come in all shapes, sizes, and ethnicity. Some White rappers are good... and then there's Asher Roth.
2.) Underground destroys mainstream.

How familiar are you with Anticon stuff? Calling some of it hip hop is a stretch, but there's a lot of good stuffs.
THIS THREAD IS ABOUT HIP HOP. Let it go.
Oh man, this thread is getting so Avatar'd.
to be precise.. i said "let hip hop die" (not that it wasn't an art form) It is an art form, one that I think society would be better off without, sorta like Disco! (yes, it will ALWAYS be here.. but one can hope!).. but thats just me..
My statement, "if this is art shoot me already" is in specific reference to TI's prose.. which if thats art, then I missed something.. I see something ART LIKE.. but not ART.. its a squishy thing.. I know..
Not only all caps shouting, but all caps, BOLD and LARGE! Now thats really loud!
fubared.
C-Bo is one of my favorite hip hop/rappers. Look him up.
Listen to "Get the money".
I'll let you know what I think of him when I hear the song.
Definitely "The Best Out" by Dipset for me. I heard that on Fight Night Round 3 and it gets me pumped every time!Cool. That's really the only song I've ever really liked of him and the violin is kinda cheesy but the beat is good and it pumped me up before playing highschool basketball games.
TI,
Your cracking me UP! STOP IT, I cant afford a new keyboard!
