in 10 years people will still be talking about Illmatic, It was Written, and Stillmatic in higher regards than the music of today

and in 10 years most people won't even remember 95% of the artist's names from all the club-hit-de-joirs out there today


so again, nas has more of a right to speak on the current state of hip hop then some black forrest gumps,lol

i don't care how hot your music is NOW , imo it's how how hot your music remains

can someone name some songs average songs that were hot 10 years ago? and if they can , how well they stand up today?

ex:
"i wish" skee lo...........tight song back in the day right? put it on now what would happen

imagine having this argument 10 years ago with west coast fans and Rakim heads


'oh rakim ain't put out nothin importnat in years , everyone points to paid in full, but that stuffs OLD, what is he doing now?"

^ LOL   

whatever....all i know is the numbers speak for themselves % wise, hip hop's numbers are down in sales figures, and it's falling harder then ever. hip hop 2006 , the heir to 80's hair metal

I STILL BUMP THE I WISH SONG ONCE IN A WHILE. .

Efrain:
The bottom line is southern, but primarily "crunk" music is the lowest common denominator in appealing music; overly simplified, consistent instrumentation with lyrics devoid of anything that evokes sentiment, cognitive processing or reflection. When a person hears this type of music they react to it the same way you would the sound of the ocean or a busy city: soothing or jarring. It's why so many Crunk artists yell and make animal noises, its because it doesn't require any mental processing for the listener to absorb. In essence it's easy listening hip-hop music, and while it may be popular it will never be remembered for the things it isn't: highly musical, artistically redeeming and creatively innovative.
