Remember when? When hip hops true purpose was the elequant flow of lyrics that had powerful meaning, that penetrated 4000 thousand shards of reality to break ground within your mind so that you could stand in a system of disease and corruption, stand at a point of pinnacle eclipse above the ants droning around doing there daily business. Remember that? amazing times.. i owe most of my confidence to hip hop the true sense of hip hop. Now, NOW DAYS? HIP HOP IS FUCKING SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT cant even be called hip hop anymore its POP no two ways about that... Fuck all these fake faggots, Currency, Kid Cudi, Wiz Khalif and ALL the lesser fags feeding off the income as well "rapping" about money, bitches, weed smoking and just generally "rapping" about anything that is less trivial then a dog shitting on your lawn. It pisses me off so much i cant even begin to contemplate the reason why anyone would find this and listen to this and think that its hip hop... its almost like you "cats" missed the memo of what hip hop in its purest form is realistically and truly: "a artistic expression of poetic justice", and if it doesnt fit into that its fucking POP, designed to appeal to the masses appeal to there false desires of money and woman and upper class lifestyle, false illusions for the false mind. So with all my venting and rage out the way, LET THE CHALLENGE BEGIN!! ITT: When hip hop was cool, When hiphop had meaning, when hip hop had POWER [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXpCct1jfRA&feature=related]The Scarecrow Speaks - YouTube[/ame] this is my first contribution, lets see what you guys can come up with, i hope im not disapointed.
RHYMESayers!!! Atmosphere is one of my favorite bands. have seen them in concert over 10 times. Brother Ali is another one of my favorites too.
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8zwE3qkhTA&ob=av2e]Atmosphere - You - YouTube[/ame] GIVE IT UP FOR ATMOSPHERE FOR KEEPING IT REAL IN 2008!!
Oh so its shit, let me guess i broke your heart? cause your hero your champ the guy you envy is a stupid little bitch rappin about stupid little bitchy stuff? oh and connntributing! [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klmexsRqw0w[/ame] got to recognize the purpose, purpose of this thread you got nothing to say? you got nothing to give? i guess you must be nothing just as well that i contributed in this post so not to make your nothingness seem like the center of topic.
dude all those songs u posted are totally corny, no flow, no energy, no diversity, no swag, no good beats, just negative depressing lyrics and their attempt to be good is pretty depressing....how the hell can u listen to those untalented boring stale depressed unfamous un-make-a-hit-able etc "artists" ? there not even artists..never will they beo n MTV or music awards or radio or anything theyll just be there sayin the same boring depressing shit to themselves everyday they suck so bad i donr evne know where to start
my nephew can make better songs then that that was so boring and stupid whats the point of even making a song like that??? they need to quit before they get capped forealzzz
Dude, you know fucking nothing then. The whole point of Deep Puddle Dynamics is that it was supposed to be rushed, natural, and raw. All the members of Deep Puddle Dynamics are from different groups, they wrote produced and recorded their whole first cd in about a week. Artists like this purposfully dont try to be on mtv, they purposfully go out of their way to spend most of their profits promoting and bringing up younger artists. I mean Deep Puddle Dynamics first cd is named after a Jack Kerouac haiku - The Taste of Rain...Why Kneel? Right there, by the title of the cd, if you're not getting it then you should just walk away and not listen.
This kid is fuckin oblivious to the root and soul of hip hop. If your going to tell me something like this is not hip hop because theres no "swag", catchy beat and it has lyrics that talk about real life (oh no life can be depressing) and not money bitches hoes then you dont know shit. Your saying their not artists cause they cant get on MTV? You got it ass backwards, they arnt on MTV because they are artists. I like some of the stuff that comes onto MTV and the radio cause its catchy but it sure as hell isnt hip hop. Your going to say Deep puddle dyanmics isnt hip hop? Lets see... Original rhyme scheme, good flow, powerful message. Oh no but theres no swag, catchy beat unoriginal flow and they arnt mentioning bitches guns and drugs AT ALL?!? Whhaaaaaaa? Fortune, health, knowledge, success Woman, man, trust, progress Culture, faith, healing, destiny Endurance, family, science, society Music, soul, healing, mind Health, security, drugs, time Trials, hunts, advance, innocence Smiles, love, chance, relevance Like del the funky homosapian said... Rap ain't about bustin caps and fuckin bitches It's about fluency with rhymin ingenuity [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nVzSr3yDcA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nVzSr3yDcA[/ame]

We have an underground hip hop thread that this would work in. BUT. props on the Scarecrow Speaks..one of my favorite tracks from Deep Puddle.
fuck you got me...Its hard to tell these days with all the kids that actually believe that stuff. Im not mad though, just usin emphatics to get my point across. Im just now really getting into del. I had heard mastermind 3030 and now am seeing how dope his early stuff is. Binary star is one of the groups that got me into hip hop so a while on that one. Im still waiting on this light years apart to drop
