I have not been on this Blog in too long!!! I will try and post here more often as Hip Hop is a lot different than it was back in April when I posted last. Kiddos I have been busy!!! Enjoy!
Wow Hip Hop has certainly changed since my last post... C4 is out, and as YMCMB being my favorite label, soooooo much talent, especially with Weezy, he is the greatest rapper alive... however... C4 failed my expectations, but its new and it is different, even though most critics say it is a lot of the same. It simply can be that it will have to grow on me. I actually read some posts on
lilwaynehq.com that said the same it was like there 6 or 7 go through and they we really feeling it at that point, which is scary as hell it has only been out since Monday and its Thursday... that is 6 to 7 hours of time, respectively, I do not know how you fit that in when I was reading this on Wednesday... but I have noticed that some other the other songs I am coming around on too. Really digging "So Special" that features John Legend. So I am hoping that all the sounds on C4 have that affect on me, only time will tell.
So now that I got my C4 thoughts out of the way lets go to the State of Hip Hop right now. I think the radio needs to diversify and play more than 10 relatively new songs and occasionally putting in a Throwback jam in there every so very often...
Went out for a bit and grabbed a bit with fam and really C4 seems to be really growing on me and the I guess this album just has to grow on me I think.
Getting back to the State of Hip Hop, we have YMCMB at the forefront and they do have a lot of talent, there is a Jay Z presence that is good and Kanye is in there too and then there collabo "Watch The Throne", which is a 5 Star album. Now we have Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All (ODWGKTA), with Tyler, the Creator that I think can be the next big Hip Hop genius and his ass is only 20 years old. However, his talent speaks for itself, check out "Yonkers". He could be a mogul in a few years if he plays his cards right. Have not heard too much out of Aftermath Ent. which is a shame, but if we have to wait for the next mega Eminem album them so be it. I just want to see Hip Hop radio diverse like Hip Hop is right now. Tallinn Kweli is shell but gets no air play, he is great, I challenge anyone to state otherwise. Spoken Word Hip Hop is some f the best Hip Hop produced, Common is another name.
Within a paragraph I have summed up the layout and state of Hip Hop, come on lets see some more competition and MCs going for greatness.
I will Try and post more on this Blog but I have another that takes up most of my blogging time.
Kiddos stay safe and away from stupid!!!...
