Hiphop was better in the 80's- 90's to me, do you think hiphop is dead

The majority of rapper's of today is a s**t, more rapper's as Eminem it always can wait a good Work

Great Topic Man

Some of todays hip hop is good, but I think the 80-90's were the s**t

Hip hop is not dead. Hip hop is sleepy since the goods die young

Hip hop needs a cup of coffee and a foot up the a**

Hiphop aint dead its on lifesupport, anyone heard that song by KRS-One called "Hiphop lives"?. I think the reason why hiphop getting sleepy is because the lack of competiton, theres nomore rap battles, its all about money nowadays. Hiphop has now become a business not an art.<BR><BR>

"If your living in a stressful situation its gonna affect your lyrics one way or the other because MCing comes from the heart. Thats why you should never sell your lyrics just for world befaying because your lyrics is the manifestation of your soul, they didnt come from nowhere else. And thats what alot of MCs should understand you dont buy a can of lyric , you dont go and put on lyric. Lyrics are what makes you an MC, its an expression of your soul, so when you sell your lyrics you are selling your soul..literally!!" - KRS-One

I Understand you, more....

Hip - Hop, Rap or Other, with Soul Only ? no

Business Only ? no

and yes Soul and Business

Somebody live with soul only, all need of Money, someboy live without Money

Soul Is Veryyyy Important, more....Money Also

I dont understand what you just said but alright.

I think he means soul is what is needed in hip hop now and not just the money?

Yep thats whats needed in hiphop. The soul, the lyrics, the love for hiphop, the dignity, the message, the skills, etc. Life is more than just money, BLOOD DIAMONDS, clothes, trends etc. Rappers talk to much sh*t and can't back it up with lyrics, BUILD YA SKILLZ!! Anybody ever noticed all the best rappers is either dead,retired,underground, not getting heard, or sold out? Everybody relying on Marketing Promotion not talent. its a damn shame......

Soul Only ? No

Business Only ? No

Soul and Business ? Yes

Soul is important, more money also

Nobody lives without money

You mean soul is important to get tha money, aint u?

Do you think 50 Cent have tha soul? lol

No, Soul don't is important to get money, is the
result of a good work

RAP OR OTHER AS PROFESSIONAL IS WORK!

Ok i think I get what your saying `

We need to put the soul into the music in order to get the money rightfully

right?

Yeah, It is this same

You place the soul in music and gain money with the final result More you are not money only, you are soul also you understand ?
