I wont even get into the basics of rap, a.k.a hip hop, the culture, it's deep, what we live, what I breathe, progression from spoken word, it's what I need, on this earth, what I bleed, since birth...

^^See, this reply above stems from ignorance, an ignorance of what is a culture and music dating back decades.
What rap/hop hop stemmed from was a progression of spoken word and influences from earlier black music in the Americas.
The art of poetry combined with a rhythmic beat created a great new style of music speaking about daily life and struggle in the streets of NYC and places where those could relate.
Therein everyone wanted to be like us.
See those who haven't lived it can't identify with it, nowadays hip hop has vanished, its all commercial and what the media wants the world to hear out of us.
Run DMC to Jay-Z, from Nas to Biggie, from Public Enemy to Wu Tang, from Tribe called Quest to The Lox and so on and back again...

I wanted to respond to the idiot, later on reconciled think no.
See, the idiot doesn't no the difference between a musician and an artist. Most of who it showed in the photocollage are artist. There are many producers in Hip Hop who are trained musicians. And actually do play instruments. And even in sampling technics you need to have some affinities and understanding on key-notes, group-notes, high, mid and low clef. Etc...
Even R Kelly was in there. Although he is one of the best producers of this day and time.
Ps. I could not receive your links from the previous post.
What's it about?

When a New Yorker tries to tell you something about "Hip Hop" (as opposed to "commercial rap music"), fools better listen up!!

First off the Old School Rap is nothing like the new crap out today. Tupac should not be in the same category as the others like E-40 and "Paul Wall".."The Game" etc all of those dudes are fake.
If you listen to Tupac he actually had a story to tell, He did'nt talk about Money and Bitches all the time. Tupac was real, people like you are judging a book by its cover.
The Beatles IMO are boring, but older Metallica is pretty good, but they sold their soul for Money, They Suck now.
I gotta admit "No Leaf Cover" with the San Fransisco Symphony is a damn good song ...
WTF happened to Metallica?? Seriously!!
