Well I, personally, am scandalized that nobody's mentioned Jurassic 5 yet.

I'm fucking scared for my generation. I'm 20, and this garbage is what the supposed "tastemakers" my age think is hip-hop. Most people you meet, you're lucky if they've heard of Jurassic 5 (same dude upping the Busdriver record complained about how unimpressed with J5 he was in '99) Meanwhile they sleep on the promos of Marley Marl productions that lay untouched in our hip-hop library.

Saying, it's scary thinking how average people in my generation concieve of hip-hop. Fuck trying to explain four elements culture, folks don't even know what hip-hop even sounds like. My good friend, hip-hop director at the station, as soon as people found out that she liked hip-hop, the staff stopped talking to her. No joke. Another girl's been playing hip-hop at the station for years, gets the boot because there's "too much student interest in hip-hop."

I know every generation goes through this shit but damn, amazing how a small group of dedicated people basically keep an artform and culture alive.

Taken out of context, that's mine. Not saying J5 is some mindblowing group, cause they're not in any way (especially lyrically). Nor am I a huge 4-elements person - shit is played out and ridiculous. Just saying that it's scary that so many people my age haven't ever been exposed to hip-hop either conceptualize hip-hop as "that black people music you dance to" or "that new cool busdriver/anticon/nerdcore 'alternative' stuff".

You've been a bit a thread killer lately, Rillz. Your incendiary shtick needs a remix.
