The real issue here is the ignorance of Byron Crawford in making the generalisation about Iranians and Iraqis as ‘They both hail from the Middle East, and they both hate Jews.’ This is what mainstream Hip Hop has done- made the whole scene an advert for ignorance and pulled the black community of the United States back to coonery, dancing and singing for little suburban white kids. Also regarding the hipster thing- it really doesn’t matter how a rapper dresses surely the main thing they should be judged on is their skills and lyrical content.

Canada actually IS North America (see the North American Union: USA, Canada & Mexico). This will soon be followed by the American Union, which will consist of North, Central & South America all being the same “country”, regardless of the meaningless boundary lines you see on a map. Just like the European Union and the African Union.

So really, in effect, the globe only consists of like 6 or 7 “countries” at this point. That’s correct, the new world order unfolding right before our very eyes.

I’ll bet most people haven’t heard the term “American Union”. What do think the purpose could posibly be for all these “unions”?

That’s right, u guessed it.

The inevitable one-world gov’t is on the horizon!

@ HU,you must live on the S/S talking like that about “them Chi” niggas .Plus add to the fact that we’re on the net having this discussion concerning them.U “Soda” niggas have no swagger if it wasnt for people moving into this cold muthafucka you’d probably be dressed like a farmer and shit.I remeber when no suburb in that bitch even subscribed to BET til 97.

“The same thing goes for walking around tight-ass pants, trying to get people to look at the imprint of your cock and balls. I’m sure a lot of chicks find that shit sexy (well, naturally), similar to how you see a lot of black women taking up with DL brothers, purposely willing themselves into thinking they don’t take it up the coat, when the evidence is right there on the surface.”

THATS ONE VERY SUSPECT PARAGRAPH MR BOL SIR

Enough has been said about most of your post, Bol so I just wanted to say that blacks from Chicago should be called “Chica-gites”. I’m from Minnesota and I can definitely say that blacks from Chicago are another species. They are easy to spot on these Minneapolis streets. Most of them talk like retards, are covered in tattoos, smoke “blacks”, and look inbred. I have met numerous criminals from Chicago and I just wanted to put it out that Minnesota is tired of being shit on by Chicago. Does anyone know why people from Chicago look strange (short, fat, dumb) and act like coons?

Cool Kids, Kid Sister, Spank Rock, Amanda Blank are dope rappers. Their shit is a higher verbal dexterity and usually quicker release than most shitty rappers, typically from Atlanta or the south, today.

Gay: wearing baggy jeans with no shirt and your underwear sticking out all greased up and tatted up in your videos

Not Gay: wearing clothes that fit properly

Gay: making songs about your ‘rivals’ and trying to discredit or ruin their reputation like females

Not Gay: making songs about bicycles and skateboards

Nahhhhhhhhhhhhh, I did not say that Jay Elect was a “hipster”. He’s a NEW MC, which is just what really need these days. He’s a bit beyond most of these other cats in my opinion, but everyone has their place in my Taste Folder. I did cop the Bake Sale and it sounds great on a Saturday afternoon, let me tell you, lol…The Knux are gonna be nice, I’m not sure about Mickey Factz or Kidz In The Hall, though. I’ll need a few more songs from both before I render a verdict.

But, all in all, I don’t care about labels like “hipster rap”, lol. That’s what the MASSES and RETAIL needs to quickly and efficiently promote, sell, and for the audience, ingest, a new product. Not that serious to me. Sheeeit, I remember when De La Soul was going nuts when cats wouldn’t stop calling them “hippie rappers” and took their “D.A.I.S.Y.-age” concept waaaaay too far in the media. Those guys were just on some different shit, and I loved it as much as I loved M.O.P.! Just rhyme from the heart and you’re good with me, fuck it.

Jay Electronica is a hipster rapper? what the fuck and when did that happen? I fucks wit Jay Electronica shit heavy, but i neva took him as a hipster though…..

Canada is a lot different than the US. Propaganda is the majority of it all we Canadians don’t use media and music to control what the people think. that frozen tundra you talk about that I live in. produces more millionaires in Canada than rap does in the states and it’s where you get the gas. Canadians take pride in there country. States people do nothin but bitch about the way their country is goin. The only Americans that came close to be Canadian mentality is the Alaskans and most of them don’t even like the south states.

I cosign Perisan on saying that. Cause if you called me an American I would go off on you even more.

still respect the people of North America we are just different in many many ways

You cats are too impatient. The Cool Kids are only the beginning. And I hardly looked to them for lyrical feats of superstrength, but on a hot summer day with your dudes cruisin down the pike to a party…the Cool Kids definitely set the tone for that. I am surprised at the limited vision of the blog writer, though.

All I got to say, really tho, is two words:
JAY ELECTRONICA.
