[shipcity1]

good music ebbs and flows hip hop will have another golden era. if all you fucks you know the "ohh my parents are divorced so i'm emotionally weak" if you bitches had one autonomous, original, quality filled bone in your body new innovative quality hip hop would come out. also i just ate a baby and i made an old lady break dance on a piece of card board covered in poop....guess what...i'm my own grandma

Hip hop wasn't meant to be laughed at and called ignorant. If this stuff came back, it could redeem itself.

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

@Daniele0093 but the original one is called ''the message'' and it is by grandmaster flash

[Daniele0093]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 yeah sure

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

@Daniele0093 was that ''yeah sure'' of yours ironic?
