Nation today I come to you as your president, to tell you that hip hop is all about the dead presidents. lol. But seriously I had a passion for this music and culture every since the '93-'94 season. I called it rap back then, the concept of there being this greater umbrella that rapping or rap music fell under was at the time a hunch a mere sense in my intuition that there was something special in this music, that so captivated my mind I could not here the teachers at school when they talked, it was gibberish underneath the RZA beats looping in my head, round and round never ending. Even then I some how knew just how these beats were made as I started making beats of my own in my head by taking parts of other songs heard and looping them and then imagining the kick and snare. Anyways my love for the music began then and it was like a part of me for ever evolving into something I didn't always like, but I found away to stay in love. I've grown in my understanding and now see things in reality as reflections of myself, really there were parts of me that I didn't like. To name a few of my favorites there are Nas, Wu Tang, Busta, The Fugess, Erikha Badu, Common, Mos def, Talib, Lil wayne, Out Kast, Saul Williams Who if you don't know you should check out, Dr Dre, eminem, and so many I can't say all
Well this is my first real blog hope some one out there feels me
one question before I go, is it just me or is hip hop not suck no more?, I feel its changed and has become well rounded, I mean you have to take in the a broader perspective, in other words there is some thing out there for everyone, and a little taste of everything is what I subscribe to. Also I think there is some thing about this new i pod culture, I mean when you can walk around with an encyclopedia of music on you, your bound to start liking everything.
