Some of my bros decided to start a post-pre-post-meta-ironic core rap group. I think the concept behind it is that they are ‘not black’, ‘privileged’, and ‘get’ global issues. I think they are going to build a myspace with powerful graphic images that say controversial stuff, possibly parodying hiphop culture. I think they consider themselves 2 b ‘artists’ but they are also trying to ‘rage against the local scene’ and ‘how fucking stale’ it has become.
Yall. What’s the deal with ‘modern hiphop’? What is the state of ‘hipster rap’? Will bands like ‘The Cool Kids’ ever ‘catch on’? Would u rather watch these bros or M.I.A., or are they ‘basically the same thing’ except MIA has ‘better samples’/a higher ‘production value’?
Do yall have any ‘wannabe rap tribes’ in ur local scene who play at art shows?
Do u think that they are ‘being ironic’ about ‘trying to be a band’ without the emotional + personal commitment of ‘being a band’?
ughh…. so disenfranchised with hiphop/the scene/rap/art/everything.
glad that ‘the real slim shady’ is back with a brand new gimmick to shake up the scene [via autotune]

As a black man I found that personally offensive, and I am morally opposed to them on a core level. Nah, just kidding, really what it boils down to is they suck. So apparently if you have zero talent, you can call your performance ironic and market yourself as a gimmick/alternative to mainstream hip hop? Cool.

this is more performance art than hip-hop. i mean its not even close to hip-hop. don’t worry man it still exists. go listen to dalek or something.

why would you hate on eminem? he’s not “alt” enough? i don’t even listen to hip hop and i know he’s talented as fuck. most hip hop is getting VERY stale, mainstream nowadays is shit, but eminem is an artist.

@Andy, yeh he’s a talented lyricist, but his new single is bare stale and all round pretty lame.

@antandbee, fair enough. I’ll concede that he can do MUCH better than his new trash. Happens to the best of them, unfortunately.

@Andy,
After a glance I thought you comment was refering to Carles and his recent racist turns;
“fair enough. I’ll concede that he can do MUCH better than his new trash. Happens to the best of them, unfortunately.”
I thought, ‘my thoughts exactly’.

@DwayneWayne, HAHAH
Well that’s valid too.
This blog is for the most part usually an entertaining read, but he has so many preconceived notions about EVERYTHING. What’s good, what’s bad and everything in between. I already know what he’s gonna say about something before I even read the blog post.
QUEEF!!!

i would rather listen to MIA cuz she writes ‘cultural bangers’ and talks about things i ‘get’ like watching lost and ‘exploiting the heritage of a country i was not actually born in but feel tied to via a relative that have not really even met on more than a few occasions’

I think eminem is more authentic cuz people listened to him before there was this whole rush to be “cool,” “new,” or “different.”

i remember when the black kids used to rap during recess and PE together; sometimes they would tag on school property with sharpies; some of them were in gangs; most of them were failing.
