...it's still bigger than hip hop

so lately i've been trying to give certain hip hop artist a chance. dont get it twisted i'm still on my rock shit but i had a rapper friend of mine tell me i'm being unfair esspecially because of soo many good mixtapes coming out right now, which is true i've had my own little personal binge on all things mixtape. and i'm not even gonna bullshit, alot of what i heard has been pretty good except for the likes of gucci mane who is still the coon of the year to me, i think hip hop is trying to come full circle and just get back to where it should have been the whole time and that is with the damn beats! cuz i swear to bob! like everyone for about 3 months to me was sounding the same like no bullshit and the fact that everyone freestyles over the same beats really grinds my gear hell even the few rappers i listen to are guilty of that shit! but i've digressed... right now i'm an instrumental kick and all i've been listening to is J Dilla,Rza,and H2 beats...is that closed minded? lls

i guess the point of this random rant is to say keep coming with the mixtapes rappers and maybe just maybe i will listen to hip hop again...but thats a big maybe!

and as far as production goes...aint nothing like laying back and letting J Dilla read ur mind ...R.I.P.

and i dunno if alot of people know who H2 is but he's nice! and the fact that he puts out instrumentals ...ahh yes! they're worth the space on my computer trust!

O YEA ...i am not a rap fan/critic/expert in the least bit...all i do is let my ears guide me and then i jus saying how i'm feeling...nothing more ...nothing less.

and for those that dont believe me i will give u my top 5 songs on itunes :

Love Bomb- N.E.R.D
The Beautiful Ones- Prince
Oceans- Pearl Jam
1234- Plain White Ts
Song For You- Donny Hathaway

see...lls ...i dont even have a hip hop top 5 anymore..i wonder if a certain black male will question my "nigga-ness" as he called it...ahh, i love my fellow coloreds..sheesh!
