Saw this guy open for Kool Keith a couple years ago. He was absolutely terrible. My friends and I reference this song whenever we talk about bad music. Chorus made me laugh so hard when I heard it live.

It's supposed to be automatic but actually you have to press this button.

The things he says in this particular song are interesting, but over all he seems to be the exact same as everybody else. I also remember last time I heard about him he was trying to grab up attention with some Tyler the Creator diss or something. I love the backpackers talking about "real hip hop" though. I like ATCQ as much as anybody else, but it's not like they are all about a message. I used to like underground hip hop more, until I realized it was almost all about talking about how "nobody wants to hear my message, it's so hard putting out real hip hop..." This is sorta what this reminds me of.

I think you missed the true message of most underground hip hop.



It's hard to get to that when the majority of it is comprised of whining about how "real emcees" don't make it anywhere. Hip-hop is still my favorite genre by far, but I just can't stand backpackers and underground rappers who only talk about how persecuted they are and how "nobody keeps it real", or "nobody has a real message." I guess it's just a pet peeve of mine, a similar thing would be how the "hashtag" style of rap is so popular. It just bothers me.


I see where you are coming from, but i feel the "nobody keeps it real" aspects of underground is more filler than the main idea. Thats the thing about underground, the true meaning is never in your face, but very cryptic and subtle.

I can think of a LOT of artists that have something real to say, but ill post Killer Mikes "Reagan" as it is a fresh track.

Yeah, Killer Mike! Dumbfoundead is cool too. Love their music.

A portion "Are You... Can You... Were You... (Felt)" by Shabazz Palaces is about hip-hop culture too, although not to the extent that Hopsin presented. A different take on the topic.

god i hate arguing about hip-hop. it's like a microcosm of the argument of what makes good music. lyrics are important, flow, rymes, steez, blah blah blah.

every1 likes different hip-hop, i personally enjoy older stuff because i like that minimalistic sound with sampled beats and real instruments, and i could give a rats ass about complexity of flow. that's my opinion, but mine shouldn't dictate what kind of music is good.
