_________________________________I am from the Old School
and that implies being a
student in many aspects
of that classification.
I am a muslim involved in
interfaith so I read the
Qu'ran daily, and study
the Bible and Torah.
I was just a young'n when
Afrika Bambata, SugarHill,
Curtis Blow and believe it
or not Blow Fly helped give
birth to Hip Hop. I was right there and it reminds me of a husband being right there with his wife in the delivery room during child birth. I have seen this child grow past the Fat Boys, Criss Cross, and Kwame stages of development into the KRS 1, Eric B and Rakim, and Run DMC era (rip JMJ). I partied hard to EPMD's - You Gots to Chill and MC Breed's - There Ain't No Future in Your Frontin (Who lasts the longest and who's the strongest?). Hip Hop is a movement and when it hit the Westcoast, it transformed with the help of Kool Moe D, Ice T, and NWA (rip Easy E). The South wasn't to be denied as the Geto Boys blazed trails for the likes of Eight Ball/MJG and UGK (rip Pimp C). They been at it hard for some years now and I came up in the streets that they painted pictures of on wax LPs. It's really disheartening to see Tupac (rip) and Biggie (rip) literally battle to their deaths, making the ultimate sacrifice for this way of life, only to see music moguls get wealthy exploiting front men like Diddy and Suge. All the while, we killing eachother to the beat. I am not a rapper/producer nor am I just a hip hop fan. I am hip hop. I live a life that's being rapped about and I thank G-d for it. It ain't always been pretty but I somehow found a way to fall into the flow of a cold track no matter who calls themselves rapping and running their mouths. So I love both the Game and Fifty Cent (they knock 50 but he's only trying to share what its like to have your mother murdered for hustling, survive 9 gunshots, see his main guy JMJ (rip) be given his funeral. I love Cash Money, Wayne, BG, and Juve. I like TI, Ludacris, and Three Six Mafia but I really dig Common, Outkast, Mos Def, Talib Kwali, and Lupe Fiasco, them boys cold. Yeah, we need to make them all raise their game and start studying, writing, and rapping about something, anything of substance cause if they don't it's just gonna be some old freestyle battle bull that's really killing em and they don't even know it. I am hip hop and I pray we may revive the Stop the Violence Movement before it's too late, somebody else gets paid, and still selling records. Until then I'll be saying RIP.
G-d's Peace!
