Bringing It Back
Mar 19, 2008 Author: green eyes | Filed under: Bullshit, Captain-Save-a-Ho is off duty, Pay Attention Boys & Girls, Political Buffoonery
Blah blah blah…. hip hop is dead… blah blah blah… rap music sucks…. blah blah blah…. hip hop sucks… blah blah blah… rap fans are haters… blah blah blah… titty titty ass nipple… blah blah blah phat ass… blah blah blah…. fuck the south… blah blah blah… the north needs to give up already… blah blah blah… Fat Joe sucks.Sounds familiar? If you have conversations with rap fans or peruse hip hop blogs those are a the main things you’ll be hearing. Peppered in may be a few comments about Nas vs Jay Z Vs Big Vs Pac, but the commentary generally dissolves into Hip Hop being dead and or sucking donkey balls and how much everyone hates rap these days.I swear rap fans are some whiny brats sometimes (myself included); always bitching about the problems but offering no solutions. Motherfuckers are politicians in training. So check it… i consider myself a jack (perverts) of all trades, master of several so here are a few of my humble ideas of how to gt rap back on track. In no particular order:
- Stop saying Hip Hop Is Dead. Just stop speaking shit into existence.
- Rappers must stop bedazzling every cereal and crayon box within sight. Are rhinestones and sparkly things killing Hip Hop? Perhaps not, but much like their sparkly daddy Jimmy Jones, they’re pointless and retarded. Grow your money in smarter ways fellas.
- More G-Unit Mixtapes. Yeah.. I said it. But here’s the thing… when 50 and crew were dropping serious mixtapes, not these crap ass lollipop magic stick strictly for bitches who know nothing about rap but just want to fuck rappers albums, they brought a certain fire to the game that caused their peers to get inspired. Rap needs that hunger back.
- Rappers- stop doing stupid shit and going to jail. You cant make music while you are in jail- and your job is to make music. Not go to jail. Beside- you are grown ass men and women- stop acting like assholes and going to jail for stupid reasons. Thats why you have weedcarriers and Jewish lawyers!!
- Good rappers- focus on Rap. Your clothing line is wack anyway.
- On GP- someone please shoot Justin Timberlake. Or severely kick his ass and youtube that shit. I’m not fond of this triscuit. Who ever gave him his “Hip Hop” Pass (Timbo i see you) needs their own revoked, Rappers– stop collaborating with this watered down R&B impersonation. Its truly not about his color- but his total and utter lack of originality. He was in N*Sync for god sakes. N*Sync = NOT HIP HOP!
- Kill the beef. We all know its bullshit anyway. Seriously grow up– grown men arguing with other grown ass men because he said something that hurt your feelings. Pussy bitches. Go get a Kleenax and hug it out bitches, but don’t make me watch.
- Fire 90% of the A&R cats who grew up wanting to be the next Dame Dash or Diddy. Fuckers– you aren’t as talented and you have no originality- and that’s showing in all the choices you are making at the label. Get back to the streets and pay attention to the people, and get your head out of Jay Z’s ass.
- Fans: go back to being fans. Support your favorite artists and take chances in new cats coming through with something different. Stop following the status qou and acting like you’re mini- A&Rs acting like mini Dame Dash’s. Unless you are their personal banker, stop thinking about how much money they made.
- Bloggers- stay in ya lane. You aren’t who you interview and or write about.
- Rappers- sign to a major label and kiss your career good bye. No time in history has there been a better opportunity to do for self and keep not just a bigger piece, but the whole fucking pie.
- Learn to spell. Ignorance is not a good look. Nor is the overuse of the letter “z.” Just stop it already.
- Stop blaming the South. Just stop. Its pointless and untrue. Granted, the south is unfortunately home of idiots like Soulja Boy and other failed abortions. However, we also brought you Preemo. Never forget that New York. NEVER.
- Stop fighting the Internet! Digital music and downloads aren’t going anywhere– the music industry is 25 years too late to embrace it, but they can still change and adapt to use the Internet as a tool not have it used as the weapon issuing the industries death knell.
This list is by no means complete… feel free to add on in the comments, But here’s the really real folks: Hip Hop isn’t dead nor is it dying. Those of us who are truly hip hop, that awaken with hip hop rising through our veins bareback on a red blood cells every morning, know its not dead, nor is it dying. What we are witnessing is a metamorphosis, one we can choose and lend direction to the outcome. Bottom line- stop bitching and make yourself part of the solution.

# Good rappers- focus on Rap. Your clothing line is wack anyway.
^^This is couldn’t be more true
Great list greeny.. though I have my opinions on the indie hustle… but none the less.. good shit.
Also… i wiki’d preemo, because i didn’t know where he was born. the mofo shares my b-day (month n date not year) no wonder he is so brilliant.
and greeny… stop hatin soulja boy.. he did exactly what you suggested and raped the internet..
youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Cosign, altho’ I do have a post idea that might bring up some of these points.
Good post, Greeeenie.
Bloggers?

Yeah, I took offense, muhfucka!
Naw I’m playin.

gracias mac
BK- yessir preemo is one of Texas’ finest. respect the south dammit. and share your thoughts on the indie hustle mr i know a secret but im not telling. lol
Rey- go for it- im sure we’re all going to tackle similar topics at some point, but from different angle so its all good.
amanda- my beautiful sister in blogging- i didnt mean you… you rock. i meant BK.
oh.. and souljah boy can kiss my ass. i have yet to find one iota of actual rapping talent in that little kid who seems like he feel out off the short bus in front of a recording studio.
Yo WOrd up on Justin Timberlake. Did niggas forget he was in N’Sync some of the corniest most blatantly wack music ever put on Wax. Yuckkkkkkkk! this nigga’s whole persona is gay. I never understood for the life of me, his fake steez. Its like you should never get a pass if you took it up the ass on purpose and then turn around and say your not gay, GTFOH. So if you were in a boy band(no r&b group) with all kinds of other dudes and you guys had corny little routines and ‘Dolls’ being sold, you cant turn around and say you’re R&B, No way; not in my book. Play your position Whiteboy.
No Disrespect to Rey but I never fucked with Eminem, Britney, Backstreet or any of that MTV phenomenon Little Girl shit. Eminem gets lumped into that group cuz he fired shots at them stooping to their level, Fucking faggot.
BK- yessir preemo is one of Texas’ finest. respect the south dammit.

^^ Some SWV …… Ripping Human Nature but its ok, this song goes
Don’t play wit me woman, you know I like that shit!
Here’s something funny, number 9 & 11 on your list. Right now on nah, there’s a debate going on about numbers of album sells and indies vs. majors. If you’re clairvoiyant, gimmie some lotto numbers…
I aint even madd at timberlake… it’s not like a muthafucka can’t grow after they debut.
I’m not sayin I run out and cop his albums, or even download em for free..
but if Jay can evolve from rappin like the fu shnickens to what he does today I’ll just chalk that up to homies artistic expression. the term artist being used loosely as most singers don’t write their own shit but w/e w/e
*scrolls past topic up top*
green eyes you the shit.
cold i love you like a chubby kid adores cupcakes
BEST POST EVER!!!!!!
wow this post is so onpoint….
it really breaks down why hiphop is in the place we in…
too many copycats….to many wannabe “dame dash’s” or “diddy’s” that don’t wanna work as hard as he did when he was comin up
I also would say that fans need to stop being so critical…
like 50 say, “every block, you got somebody sayin they or they manz is better than Banks, Fab, Jay-Z, me, etc etc…” when the reality they really never seen the inside of a real studio…
i think this is more present in NY than in the south…down south fans will enjoy music more from a fan aspect rather than like in Ny where they just sit there and mean mug because they think they can do better than what’s infront of them….
yes greeny this is exactly what needed to be said…. i had also been thinking about that GUnit thing too…… good hungry rappers need to be pushed to the front…
good hip hop is alive just unseen to the masses and thats y im trying to get these concerts going in vegas to show people what good hip hop is about….
Preemo!? A southerner!? gitdafucaddahere!!
Preemo is from Texas. Ask Mac B or the MIA Benhameen
“home of idiots like Soulja Boy and other failed abortions.”
^ that is the funniest shit I have heard all freakin day..hahahahaha
Cosigns this post to the fullest. Greenie you are IT

Learn to spell. Ignorance is not a good look. Nor is the overuse of the letter “z.” Just stop it already.
^^And this is what I’m sayin.
