As some of you may know I am still a big fan of Old School Rap (and Eminem for "Newer" stuff), but the New School of Rap really sucks. It is too focused on the stereotypes that keep the cultures that listen to it down. My oldest son showed me this video last night. It is by Hopsin. The YouTube vid has a lot of views, but this is the message that needs to go mainstream to the new generation of rap and hi-hop fans. It is NSFW, or around the kids. The language is a little coarse, and although he uses some stereotypical language the message is pretty clear.

This is outstanding. Maybe now that one of their own stands up and says it, more of the "stereotypical" demographic will listen.

Sad thing is I dont see it going mainstream simply because he makes valid points.

The mainstream music industry is meant to brainwash and encourage us to put ourselves down like he talks about in his song. His lyrics are outstanding and in a way reminds me of eminem with the way he blatantly makes his arguments.

Lol, just like I said on FB. This NEEDS to go viral.
Question. Is dudes eyes really blue or are those contacts?

They look white to me, but I'm gonna say contacts. I went to high school with a black guy who got some of those whited out contacts, looked pretty wicked.

I posted this to my facebook page and said this: Okay, just listen before you go gettin your damn panties in a wad, I dont listen to rap, hip hop or any of that bs anymore, i got my reasons yeah yeah, bout the only time i listen to it is when its being played at a party or by some dumb girl who doesnt have respect for others music thats being played.. BUT i came across this on a car forum from a father who's son showed him this, he made a valid point "this wont go mainstream because it makes valid points". Even though he uses stereotypical language, he makes a good point that should be heard, especially the younger generations. To me since all today our world is pretty F'ed up, everyone is smokin pot (a little would be fine every now an again,i understand) but they make their whole life about it, which is so damn stupid, and look at all the young girls out there still in highschool, HELL EVEN EARLIER getting pregnant from a guy they dont even LOVE or hell EVEN KNOW for god sake!! but most of all the lazyness in this world because people DONT WANT TO WORK FOR SOMETHING ANYMORE..! Our minds are Brainwashed by mainstream ANYTHING. The point im trying to get across here is that someone finally understands this, and can make a, well pretty decent rap song about it. take a few minutes and listen to this song word for word. If you spread this and make it the "COOL" things for kids to listen to nowadays, think of the good you can be doing.
Now excuse my theorys and stuff but i made a good point to those who just do it because its "cool". i think this is the beginning of something good

Cool, spread the word! I posted it on my FB and got a few responses but I don't (for many reasons) have a lot of FB friends. I would be interested to see how your FB friends respond to it.
