"I thought I knew, but, depending on when you ask me, nowadays, I don't know what to tell you, anymore. I know what it started out as was "party music." But it was also more than that. IT was something created by marginalized people living in marginalized conditions. Hip Hop, as a culture, was a masterpiece painted by folks with no art supplies, no art training, and whose arts funding had been cutoff. Nonetheless, we represented lovely, our vibrant colors tagged on bricks when canvas was either unavailable, or was simply found too small to contain our self-portrait- each new shape, each morphing form, exploding out under tremendous pressure through custom caps on a boosted can of Krylon." - LB

Buy the Little Brother album, in stores now. I just copped it at Best Buy for 9.99 by price-matching from Circuit City. Circuit City had no more in stock :eek: .
