same thing goes for the state of modern hip hop. it really seems to be marketed towards 16 year old girls that are infactuated with the "thug life" mentality which in turn attracts little "thug life" males trying to tag some ass.Uzique wrote:
wouldnt really associate luther with what you'd call modern 'r&b'.
like yo niggaz just crooning to get inside some pussy with boring background production and a paint-by-numbers voice
why the fuck do virgins even listen to modern r&b when all it talks about is pussy and booty

Anti-white-power, some of their stuff was punk (listen to KKK Bitch as an example) and I guess lyrically it was hardcore... yeah, it's a stretch, I know.Uzique wrote:
oh yeah EXACTLY only minus the 'white-power' part, the 'hardcore' part and the 'punk' part

i'd say the only genre that could properly be declared 'dead' with any certainty is punk - and that's cause it was a youth-movement and a political statement as much as a group of music-lovers. and that political time and climate was very specific, and no longer exists. hip-hop kinda transcends local politics, no?
last time i checked 'poverty' wasnt one of the 4 pillars of hip-hop...eleven bravo wrote:

underground hip hop of the last 10 years has kept that spirit alive. nowadays though, I find the topics bland and talent lacking in the mainstream. everyone sounds the same. niggas aint broke no more and dont have anything to rap about with passion.
the origins of hip hop are rooted in poverty. bboying, graf, mcing and djing didnt come from the middle class.Uzique wrote:

and there are lots of unique and different-sounding underground rappers out there. you're just listening to the wrong stuff.
how you can say someone like Mr. Lif or DOOM or Quasimoto isn't 'different'...
