ok, MC HAMMER did talk about a few things in his music.

1. pray

2. help the children

3. black is black

4. crime stories

all those song came from his second album that sold 10 millions copies, in 1990?

I believe rap just reflects where Blacks are as a people. Many (not all) are ignorant, illiterate, lustful, degenerates–and proud to be. It’s amazing to me how a lot of these songs out now can be hits given the lyrical composition. Blacks have been in this country since slavery times and we have been surpassed by Mexicans, Arabs, Chinese and other immigrants because we are not driven, don’t stick together and look up to foul ignorant things. Rap just reflects this.

I will not fight all those that say hip hop has become crap.. its not just hip hop, its country,its rock, bluegrass, its everythin..I am a great rock and country fan.. there aint no politics either…. but that does not make music crap.. country and rock still sound good and better than ever… rap only got whorsth..I miss tupac..he could have said somethin. it not the singers, its the listeners.. the musicians give them what they want.. no one watches cnn these days we all watch celebrity channels. the whole tv stations is filled with celebrity talk too.

i would recommend checking out mr. lif’s “emergency rations”, cage’s “hell’s winter”, and the new coup record for some relevant political content. i would also recommend tom morello to shut the fuck up because if he is such a revolutionary why is he charging 30 dollars for a t-shirt at his show that costs 70 dollars and is sponsored by budweiser or sprite. i guess the revolution starts in his pocket? c’mon yo.

Anyone who likes Lil’ Wayne needs to quit riding their bikes around Brooklyn to hook up with their transsexual hookers.

For real, that guy is a Cash Money loser who needs to quit rapping and start collecting welfare.

rap is dead, not hip hop. when i think of rap, i think of the D4L’s and DFB’s of the genre. when i think of hip hop, i think of kweli, commonsense ( i refuse to refer to him as common because he is anything but), sometimes Kanye, imm. tech. dead prez, akir, and shit like that. I’m embarrassed to tell people that i listen to rap now a days cuz i have to explain to them that i listen to hip hop, not mysognistic, watered down garbage.big up to kanye though cuz he has been doin his part to bring common, talib, mos def, etc… into the mainstream limelight

even if you listen to supposed political guys like mr lif or the coup, their new stuff is pretty weak on the political tip cos theyre either ashamed of looking too militant so water it down and say they dont want to be regarded as political anymore cos theyre pussies and think they might be in with a chance of selling more than 1000 copies, or their stuff is just limp dicked like the coups album. the current generation of political rappers doesnt even want to be political or they try and say that talking about asinine shit is political. theyre bitchmade, in case you didnt know.

i think Wayne’s Georgia Bush was brilliant…

Anyone who refers to anything by Lil Wayne as “brilliant” needs their head checked.

>Bol needs to step his blogger game up

Lol, I find it hilarious that every post, one disgruntled reader who doesn’t like what Bol is saying comes on here and tells him to “step his game up.”

Regarding the actual content of this post, I concur. Rap has slipped since the 80′s and 90′s no doubt. Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer used to catch hell from rap fans for being corny and pop. But, by the standards of today’s rap, both should be winning grammys.

I wouldn’t be surprised if hip-hop was some Jew conspiracy to keep black kids illiterate, poor, killing each other (through this “stop snitching bullshit”), robbing each other, degrade black women. If not, then it’s just another example of how we’re fucking it up for ourselves. Whether or not you want to believe it, it’s the truth.

1. “These days even Dylan himself plays the Hendrix version.”

Yes. I’m familiar with this minutiae, as well(a).

2. “How much does your website and the magazine that operates it have to do with that?”

and. . .

“You might have a point about XXL, except that I’m sure the asinine nature of their content is on purpose, to reach a certain demographic.”

Yeah. You can’t win for losing around this batch.

3. A belated LOL @ “Adios Value.”

(a) This would be where I draw a parallel to We Got It For Cheap Vol. 2, but I’ve already brought it up once this week, and that’s my limit.

Most of the so-called “revolutionary” rappers out now like dead prez and Emo Technique don’t seem to say anything much beyond a few tired catch phrases and name-dropping Che. Plus they have horrible beats. Boots Riley is about the only dude who can be on-point, funny and subversive at the same time.
