i know we've talked bout this before but i wanna say again, we're in the same situation. But the thing is, all the people u hate aren't really into hiphop, they're into commercialism. funk flex, dmx, dragon, jayz, cash money, etc. isn't true hiphop in my view. it angers me 2 that these people can be so hypocritical at times, but i just kinda put that outta my mind. so when they're all like, "man, i love that new jay-z shit!" i just say to them, "okay, player."

ppl be askin me all the time "yo mos what's gonna happen with hip-hop?" I tell them you know what's gonna happen with hip-hop? what's ever happenin with us. -Mos Def

where hip-hop is goin in '01? back to what's real baby. no more bling-blingin. Move over cash money and jigga. It's oukast's, J5's, common, talib kweli's, mos def's, and the roots (among others) time to shine.- me

Nowadays rap artists coming halfhearted,
Commercial like pop or underground like black markets. Where were you the day hip-hop died? Is it too early to mourn? Is it too late to ride?- Talib kweli
