Hip hop as been disrespected BIG TIME, and as a result it has retreated to the subways

I’m a hip hop head (or so I claim to be), and no matter what people say hip hop is not dead (at the time of writing this, that was the statement on everyone’s lips)! Let it be known that Common (sense) is still doing his thing (?) Eyrkah Badu is doing her thing; Lupe is doing his thing, and many others I can not think of. The problem is REAL HIP HOP IS UNDERGROUND. Hip hop started underground, became very main stream and greatly influenced music of today; as music of yesteryear influenced it. Hip hop has been disrespected BIG TIME, and as a result it has retreated to the subways. But the subways I speak of are not the tangible subways! No, these subways are digital. These subways are never-ending, and go in any which direction you could think of. If I am not making sense to you; look around the internet, and see how much good music you can find. To continue my analogy I should call the people running the trains conductors, but I prefer to use the term SOLDIERS. The soldiers I speak of, in this day and age are MAVERICKS. They are ARTIST, INOVATORS, CREATORS, VISIONARIES, hell they go by many names, so it matters not what we call them. My point is this; these HIP HOP DICIPLES can’t survive upstairs above the ground. The masses (a large population of people) have let their greed, and love for money take over their MINDS, FEELINGS, THOUGHT… etc. I have said time and time again that there is a major lack of creativity in music today. To piggyback that thought there is a lack of artistry in a whole! They (corporate monkeys) only reach out for what can sell the most “units”. It is no surprise that those are the songs that have neither meanings nor substance (that” it factor” that makes anything timeless). THE BIGGEST HUMP FOR THE NEW SCHOOL HIP HOP GENERATION IS GETTING THE MASSES TO LISTIN TO THEM. Sadly you can’t get over that hump when the masses don’t want to be educated in a world where there are so many injustices to be educated on. THE QUESTION IS HOW CAN WE BE BETTER AS A PEOPLE WHEN NO ONE WANTS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES? Think about that, I got time.
