I'm going to use this thread to rant a bit.
I'm tired of everyone saying oh "hip hop is dead." screw you Nas....he has everyone repeating that crap not knowing anything about hip hop. the people that keep bringing up old school artists and saying that it's dead because that style isn't around anymore is totally off base.
hip hop is alive and well....just because you don't like the new direction hip hop is in right now doesn't mean it's dead.....it just evolved into what it is today, which is based off of what's going on in society today. the hip hop culture as a whole is constantly branching out throughout the world and opening up more people to it.
classic rock from the 70s sounds nothing like rock that comes out today so why would you expect hip hop to not change over the years and sound different?
