IS IT HERE TO STAY
MANY OF US HIP HOP HEADS WONDER IF THIS IS HERE TO STAY. WE WANT THE TRUE SCHOOL TO TAKE OVER ONCE AGAIN AND STAY FOR GOOD THIS TIME. ART IMITATES LIFE AND THE LIVES OF OUR PEOPLE ARE BEING RAISED BY CONSCIOUSNESS SO IT IS ONLY RIGHT AND NATURAL THAT OUR ART FOLLOWS THE SAME PATH. THERE IS A VERY THIN LINE TO WALK WHEN TRYING TO REACH ALL AGE GROUPS. THE ARTIST MUST STAY RELEVANT WITH THE VERNACULAR OF THE YOUTH BUT ALSO CARRY A CONSCIOUS, KNOWLEDGE BASED MESSAGE. AS MAINSTREAM ARTISTS LIKE JAY-Z BEGIN TO PUSH CONSCIOUSNESS ON THE MASSES, THE SOUND WILL ONCE AGAIN BECOME RELEVANT.
?BUT IS IT HERE TO STAY?
