but how can they like any other kind of hip hop when they haven't heard it?

@siwooot

same way I do...internet. Amazon will give people links to different music associated to certain genres and so will Pandora. Finding new music isn't that hard anymore.

damn man, where you live?

People are ignorant because they don't LOOK for knowledge. That can be applied to a person's taste in music too.

[keyonte0]

People only listen to the radio for background noise now, they've been sick of that shit. Youtube and Facebook is the new radio nowadays.

I havent listened to the radio in years..but the payola scandal is defin.still there..and your right, the people/my generation feels betrayed and were not motivated to call or fight for "our" music to be played...god bless u bro , i love yur vids..

NEW VIDEOS?

I can't really complain about the radio, 'cause I don't really know what's on it. I barely turn on radio or BET. I find most of my new music from the net and podcasts. So I can't say anything about the state of the game because I'm kind of out of the loop with what's hot right now. All I know is I was saddened when I read that Phonte's album only sold less than 8,000 in the first week. That's a bloody shame. :(

I stopped listening to the radio a long time ago. I just continue to buy/support the artist that I love & that's it.

I understand where you are coming from. I hate thar radio plays the same bland washed up dope boy shit. But at the same time, we shouldn't have to look hard for good music, it was never like that in the 90's. Oh well, until they start playing decent music I'm just gonna stick with the underground like I have been.

@siwooot Problem with like everyone I go to school with is they refuse to open their minds to actual hip hop. theyre like "what is this, whats all these big words" and shit
