How can u state that neither hiphpop is objective, hiphop is not a US concensus, but a global one. For the industrial part it's definitly not objective, it's all about nothing, simlpe n easy music ( oke not always but 99% of the time its overrated/hyped) and millions of customers buy into that. It's succes is by the typical US strategy indeed, how to best influence any customer into buying as much of your products, by any means neccesary but as cheap as possible to produce. The cheapest working force delivering the biggest appeal is definitly the black community, they've been exploited since day 1. That's a bad thing but it's been tolerated in some way because a few from the black community will have the chance to get really rich too, but never as rich as the one who exploits him. This music is soo susceptible to such a big fast consuming mass that quality music is a pre. There's only the underdog that appreciate some skills some real diversity but obvioulsy for the aquired tastes only. There so much music better than the crap I hear through the media and half the time there's not a black mc or producer involved, that not be considered a racist remark but to point out that good hiphop has not always to be referenced to black biased hiphop. You know, it really was like that and I wish we'd be back in the days with our toys because it's the trigger to most of us. But these days I have to say that there's a lot more non black mc's that certainly outdo any succesfull afro american in the chart and that the majority of black hiphop in the chart certainly wont tip the old days if we use that for reference. That the difference between now and then besides the fact that those I classify as "better" wont suite the industrial specs to market them. Truth about politics are a big no, a taboe, I mean, think about it... You have 911 and the most succesfull thing I can imagine that would touch people the most was to be some cleverly outraged mc that states how things really are. no you want to hail the services for their loss, which is obviously true, please dont doubt me on that, but it also deflect the current happenings. No, you get a whining bald guy with guitars and depressing music, the new trend in chartland. Just an example how and why there's a logical difference between the 2. Truth doesn't sell and kills a goverment if succesfull, if...
If you take out that part of hiphop, no disrespect here cuz I know its important since its a part of many afro american's identity. But if you take out that part of hiphop you'll be left with everything else hiphop outside the US. I know that aint real to you, but it actualy is for us outside the us. I like to see americans travel a lot in hoping they'll see there's really more than their perspectives. Gaining perspective on all cases to me is progression, that hiphop to me, the bare naked truth and its a bitch, but it's real, it's human, humans relate.
Just as simple as that, all that and big bag o chips with the dip.
