95% of hip hop today is garbage and 70% is comming from the south, shit NY got some garbage comming out too but show me 5 well known m.c.'s from the south that are kickn knowledge. I dont give a damn about the drunk hoes in the club, fuck the club. Ya know 10 years ago there was a slew of m.c.'s speaking on real issues an doing things to improve the community, Pac, Nas, Big, shit even Jay-Z. Theres nothing wrong with club joints but when thats all thats comming out an its from a certain region, damn right Nas is on point hip hop is dead, get on the same level as Nas then you have room to talk shit about him.
Hell I grew up in one of the worst neighborhoods in one of the worst cities in this country an i can tell ya no one in impovershed (sp) community gives a rats ass about your rims, your ice or your damn money, do somthing with that money show your community you care, build a rec center for the youth, start a college fund for the children who wanna make somthing of themselves. This is why hip hop is dead the unity an love of community is gone none of these cats are trying to build. Seriously if some of ya'll cant see what im getting at then you cant see what the purpose of hip hop once was, if Pac was here now he'd be saying the same thing. Why these cats think record sales = greatness is beyond me. Fuck, a midget with herpes could sell 10 million if he was promoted right, greatness is when you leave the game an 10 years later your influence is still felt, your music is still relevent.
No not everyone can be like Pac but the message was clear, unity and love of community, give back to where you came from. Unfortunately 14 an 15 yearold bubble gum poppers are running whats called hip hop now....... damn shame
