Like I said, the masses dont want their minds to be opened. Look at the trend of the past 20 years in music evolution.

He he. What evolution? Nothing majorly new has come up since the mid-eighties. Usually old stuff, just repackaged.

In the sixties and seventies, something major came up every two or three years. Then by the very early 80's, recycling took over. Sad.

Holy crap, theres other people who listen to Big L?

Damn me and my friends thought we were the only ones since seemingly no one we talk music with knows who he is.

One of the best IMO and he never got the recognition he should have. His death was more violent than biggie's and tupac's as well; shot in the face several times....

Anyways speaking of Big L; any Lord Finesse fans?

[scabzzzz]

my bad, I misinterpreted...

No worries!

The people that I meet that listen to similiar music either have the following traits:
1) Smoke trees
2) Are democrats
3) Culturally diverse
4) Musically diverse


People that listen to rap generally wont fall into as many of those categories, or people that listen to any other genre for that matter. Hip hop is a product of every genre of music. Thats what is so fucking cool about it.
