  • We should not proclaim that hip-hop is dead. We should try and do all we can to save it from the greedy slavemasters wanting to misguide black youth and the youths of other races that listen to this "music". I once despised the gangsta rap like I hate this swag bullshit flooding the airwaves. I turned off my TV and radio and never looked back. We must all do the same.

  • This shit right here is about ownership. We no longer own this culture we giving it away for dollars and cents. and just spittin non sense. Selfish ass niggas killed hip hop always wanting to claim the spotlight instead of passing the torch!

  • @tangeni thank you

  • didnt he say fuck babygrander on the snoop beat video? i bet ya did some grimmy shit huh?

  • he's right and i don't know why everyone acts like soulja boy killed hip hop. If you like him or not thats your opinon but Hip Hop has been out years before Soulja Boy was born how can he be the one to destroy it?

  • pretty much every word that comes out of ny oils mouth is 100% truth, he understands the culture as much as people who lived thru more of the culture like him, hes a modern day krs... true understanding of the culture...

  • the computer kiled hiphop real shit

  • Like NYOIL said, if lyrical rap was popular AND promoted by the major record labels, the young kids would be forced to put out better rap.

    But when the northern record companies went down South to prevent independent labels from making all the money in the region, THEY were the ones who put promotional money behind the bullsyht club songs.

    MCs like Papoose, Royce da 5-9, Chino XL and Jean Grae should be megastars, but the old head rappers didn't want to give up their spot and help them out.

  • Gotta love NYOIL, because he explains this PERFECTLY.

    Soulja Boy was 16 - 17 years old, when he made "Crank Dat". At that age, he isn't even supposed to be talking about anything of substance. He would really be fake, if he came off gangsta. So he went the "fun route".

    And on the flip side, the majority of "old head" rappers almost flat out refuse to guide and collaborate with the younger kids or underground artists, to get a more diverse message out.

  • my dilemma about soulja boy and all these other wack katz on the radio isn't just about their lack of lyrical content. If non-talented rappers are gonna come out with a radio HIT that embraces ignorance, can they atleast make the beat and production hot?? I mean damn.....its sad enough that the lyrics are weak, but why risk the production as well? Back in the day it wasn't all about lyrics either...this generation and nyoil has a point with that. But they forget atleast the beats wer HOT.
