HIP POP

Travel. I am fortunate enough to have a job that afforded me the opportunity to do this. I have been coast to coast as well as north to south. Along my travels I saw one common denominator among my people. Music. Our beloved Hip Hop. It doesn't matter where you are in this country, the same ten hottest songs will be bumping on the airwaves. This same music is leading to the downfall of our people. Flashback. Late 80's. Yes I'm old school. A lot of the music that was played raised the conscious amongst our people. From Public Enemy to KRS-One, these pioneers said and stood for something when the grabbed the mic. Fast forward to 2007. What the hell is going on? From the shoot them up bang bang to the bling bling my rims are bigger than yours. What happened to the music? Again the dumbing down of our society. Hip Pop, R&B or whatever they call it now is nothing but pop music. Turn on the radio and what do you hear. Some dude speaking about what he got, how his is bigger than yours and how many b****** he can get or got. Wow. Now look whose listening to it. The youth. The poisoning begins at an early age. This might as well be black on black crime. The dumbing down continues. Ask any high schooler what the last book they read. They don't know. But I bet they know all the lyrics to Little Wayne. I'm not killing all of Hip Pop some of it is cute. Half the time us as adults get caught up in the beats rather than listening to the lyrics. Remember go shorty its your birthday. What was 50 cent talking about in that song? Now what can we do about it? Who can we hold responsible? The record companies. I don't think they will go for that. With 7 out of 10 songs on the billboard top ten Hip Pop and R&B related I don't think they going let that money get away. Can we go to the artist? This might work but how many of them are willing to lose there street cred in order to uplift our people. I believe it will take one hot artist that is out right now and one super producer. Timbaland do you hear me. I think if they buck the trend and show you can still make money and uplift our people at the time the other artists will jump on the bandwagon and do the same. Hip Pop is filled with followers. We just need someone to lead.........................
