April 3, 2003Teaching Hip-Hop in High SchoolFrom Australia comes more coverage of Hip-Hop's increasing acceptance into academia: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/04/03/1048962877005.html I'm not sure what to say about this one. Kind of a scattered and oddly reasoned piece, and yeah his attempt at slanguage is unfortunate. But at the very least it's an interesting peek at how the American Hip-Hop scene is interpreted from afar. Posted by jsmooth995 at April 3, 2003 1:04 PMComments
From the aforementioned article: "Popular hip-hop artists are antithetical to the prosperity of the black community as a whole. When an artist elects to exploit an art form founded in the rhythmic traditions of his African forefathers ... in pursuit of gross commodification and capitalistic gain, that individual is a menace to his people." Very interesting post. I have too many thoughts in my head. I'll have to come back. Good post. Posted by: Trent at April 3, 2003 6:50 PM Yo fuck what that guy said! One Love Fatal Posted by: Fatal at April 3, 2003 11:24 PM "Popular hip-hop artists are antithetical to the prosperity of the black community as a whole" Damn right -thank you for pointing that out to me, albeit in a foreign language that might have confused Fatal somewhat. We don't trust many that speak your tongue. Confess I digress. Who's popular, 50 cent? Dre? Anybody else that wants to sell their soul to to source? Chuck asked me just the other day, "who stole the soul?" more like who bought it. Eminem really needs a slap - he's smart enough to know better; saving his skills for underground joints and obscure b sides with Cage. On MTV doing that Madonna shit - she shocked 'em with her puss, Marylin used religion, he uses "fear of a (white boy in a) black hat". "the achievements of rappers today is just proof that the american dream is still possible" It's possible, these guys are achieving it. It's flawed. It's a mighty cancer that will eat itself alive. More guns more lies more media more money. Extrapolate. Think Bush. (Put down that 2 live crew album I'm being serious!) He's followin the American dream too. Where are you going? When do you achieve it? Never, for everyone out there with 50 million theres a slum. For everyone out there with 5 billy there is a third world nation dying of thirst, and one of the ten largest companies in the world is going to cut off their water if they don't come up with the duckets soon. Solution? Hell, I don't have a masterplan. I don't even have a mastercard. (Love that name, massa'card). NBA style salary caps, resulting in lessened media power? Take the profitability out of MTV - the suits find a new drug to peddle and I get to watch some decent joints? I dunno. JazerOne ps I was in Toys R Us the other day and right beside the slim shady dolls I saw these new nerf remote control planes that you couldn't wreck! You fuck up a landing and shit just bounces! Posted by: Jazer at April 7, 2003 7:12 AM Just Reread that shit - got excited and skipped over the point. Cancer - more dre more 50 cent, more money, they buy more media time, sell more albums, get their faces in more of other peoples joints, a la Poof Diddy, more money, more media... Cancer doesn't do anything bad, it just eats and reproduces until there's no food left for the parts of the body that keep you alive. It's not inherently evil, but it'll kill ya. That's why I get mad at the guys I think are smart enough to see the big jpeg. Trent's post is basically a straight translation of a post I read entitled "is Hip Hop Dead?" 1/2 an hour ago. No it isn't, but the beautiful parts of it are hidden beneath the cancer. And they're starving. got a point - email me so I can abuse you personally mighty_jazer@yahoo.com Did of tour of the south coast of Australia last week. The driver kept waking us up with "wakey wakey hands off snakey!" I thought of hip hop. Posted by: Jazer at April 7, 2003 7:25 AM Hip hop is believed to me to be a way of life threw music. Personaly the titest artist out is Joe Budden. soon to be. Posted by: Smurf at July 15, 2003 12:26 AM It's either everyone moves forward or no one... There are so many mc 's out there if we unified on a subject of (the smokescreen of civilized society and lies and injustice)our unified voice of(millions of mcs) would be a power that would overthrow a government. And if we passed on our unified knowledge to new generations we would be like a phoenix. Posted by: roots manuva at August 19, 2003 2:28 AM where are you man,you know i'm missing you man.
