Yeah.
Let's be reality brehs
Most nikkas treat hip hop as a get rich quick scheme so they can retire or branch off into other shyt.
How many artist (mainstream) treat hip hop as an art these days?
There isn't such thing as a real hip hop or fake hip hop it's just commercialized mamaufacterd bullshyt vs true artist.
Artist usually are opinionated rebellious and believe entirely in their freedom to express themselves however they need to.
Think about it.
Artist these days have to watch what they say or who they affiliate with because it might be "bad for business"
Although I dont like chief keef he defiantly embodies a vintage artist who isn't concerned with politics of music his only flaw is that his music is cheeks
50 cent had that great quality as well unti he became obsessed with the buisness aspect and look what happen to him!
I felt nas recent album was so good because it was very raw artistically and only showed flaws in the cheap scapegoat songs that labels require rap artist to have like that Swizz beats song
Speaking of that nikka Swizz a great example of what I'm talking about deals with someone like Alicia keys.
Her content when she first came out sounded really authentic, raw, or whatever terminology you want to use compared to her now where it's like some generic pop bullshyt thats terrible.
Aside from pop meaning "pouplar music" the reason why pop was called pop music was because it was associated with being manufactured i.e. your non singing ass folks with marketable looks and gimmicks. While urban music use to be associated with authenticity but now I see what the old hip hop fans complain about when it comes to what's hot these days because everything sounds like pop.
Ends rant.
