147520, Folks need to really check that Interview he did w/ Bill Maher

That shit was disgusting.

He makes a point to omit how many artists and emcees shoulders he's standing on.

He has no problem soaking up all this praise from his non urban audiences without putting the kulture (and how he benefited)into proper context.

He is citing and setting himself up as *the* authority and architect of HipHop to an audience that does not understand the pain and misfortune that birthed it and don't know any better.

There is a difference between being a Hip Hoppa (per KRS ONE) and an emcee versus being a rapper who benefits from the wholesale (some would say theft) of a *piece* of Hip Hop Kulture.


Son is straight up violating.
