Also, I'm an artist myself, doing my own thing, if you're into all of these artists, you might be into my work. Check it out at myspace. com/AllOneVoice If you'd like, thanks alot! -AllOne
"Geeks" aka actual artists who focus on the questions of their head and heart, concepts and questions that the listener can relate to, in patterns that are delivered with talent, and written often brilliantly, and hard to decipher vs "gangster rappers" who rap because they think thats what rap is, and try to fit a strong man, fuck women, get money kill people stereotype that sets black culture back a thousand steps from its educated and intellectual progress. I dont understand the debate here
that's why i chose them. they're so different yet fall under the same heading of hip hop, they both have 'love/hate' reactions as well unlike most other forms of hip hop
I think its all natural progression. Rap has evolved in ways and space was made where "conscious" rap could grow. Common Sense came out and it was like woa! He opened it up a little but conscious rap and its flowers (I hate labels)was the only way it could go. Thing is that its not main stream and alot of people like it that way because it keeps it real but people will catch on. Kids grow up and want to "grow" and they'll come upon sole... its all natural progression.
First is "Year of the Sexx Symbol" off of "Bottle of Humans", and the first Doseone song is "I promise never to get paint on my glasses again" from the self-titled Clouddead album.

I couldn't go, at the last minute my parents told me I couldn't go. It sucks! I'm a huge Busdriver fan and I've never seen him in person!

these are 2 very extremely opposite kinds of music, theres also battle rap, which has educated lyrics, but still has sort of a gangsta undertone
