no.
yall keep sayin the "game" and referring to mainstream
fukk mainstream
i dont need the radio/tv to tell me where hip hop is
hip hop is@ Shat's Night Club every wednesday breaking new artists.
hip hop is @ local luv sunday's @ RJ's Lounge
hip hop is at the mall tryna sell me a cd that he took months to make and he even designed the artwork himself
hip hop is whats being played on underground/internet radio
if you think it lacks realness,you can find a scene with realness
if you think it lacks creativity, you can find a scene with creativity
thats why its like 4 clubs that do local love/open mic nights on the same night... one club for the poetry crowd,one club for the crunk crowd, one club for the "keep it real" crowd, and one club for cats that jus wanna stand in a circle and cipher by the dj booth
you can find anything,
you jus gotta be willing to look for it and appreciate when you find it
