lol, Bias B just gave us the finger...

I fucking love this shit.

@delarks73 Definitely bro. Most of the Aussie hip hop heads I've met wouldn't even know who EPMD or Mos Def or Brother Ali is. They sound like some misguided fools when they say Aussie hiphop shits all over American stuff.

Don't get me wrong though, I love Aussie rap, I just hate these fuckwits who make us look bad trying to build up Aussie hiphop by knocking down other people. The lazy fucks just listen to the radio and think that's what American rap is. Dickheads!

[Jackshenz]

@frankovich213 that's definately a minority.

[GabsrielleAnne]

@frankovich213 hahaha, finally somebody that isnt a fuckin keyboard warrior on youtube skitzing out when someone disagrees with them...hip hop in australia is different thing to american though so its hard to compare the two... in the end it just depends on your taste in music really

[frankovich213]

@palsc4 I disagree. The underground scene in most parts of the US is still dope as ever. Especially with all the technology and ways to get your music out these days. A lot of people are just doing their thing, not even worried about blowing up.

We've got access to more dope underground hiphop just on youtube alone than we ever had back in the day when commercial rap was good.

If your opinion is that most US rap is shit that's fine but my opinion is you're not looking.

[palsc4]

also....

This is from a dr. dre interview:

Some people think the music is in a great spot, and some think it’s just really dead. What do you think? -I think it’s definitely big right now. But it’s definitely not as good to me right now. I would say that there are a few artists that I think have quality, but for the most part, it’s just a lot of watered-down shit that we’ve been listening to over the last I don’t know how many years.

Dr. dre knows. Hip Hop is shit right now.

@frankovich213 American hip hop has gone to shit, sure they have a few half decent rappers, but the majority of rappers over there are useless nowdays and end up saying the same shit over and over again (especially whoever is on the radio e.g lil wayne, drake, eminem on recovery/relapse) i wouldnt say aussie hip hop is better overall than american hip hop, but some aspects of aussie hip hop shit all over american hip hop, and some parts of american hip hop is better then aussie hip hop.
