Re: "Different" By One-Way
You didn't even bother listening to the song? That song cleverly and sarcastically exposed all the stereotypes about American minorities, on top of that, exposed the truth about the white racist movenment and its obvious cruelty and arrogance. No other form of music could've done that, no other form of music has the versatility to expose something as controversial as this so effectivelly. If it has, please name the genre, who its by, and the name of the song.
Kanye West - Roses, Hey Mamma, Drive Slow
Fort Minor - Kenji, Cigarettes, Back Home
Common - I Used to Love H.E.R (I recommend you listen to this song with the lyrics open TO THE VERY END, you'll appreciate the genre more, especially since its talking about the same thing we're discussing).
Immortal Technique - You Never Know
Louis Logic - The Idiot Gear
Nas - These Are Our Hereos, 2nd Childhood, What Goes Around
No other form of music could so vividly tell stories, and expose controversial issues as well as Hip Hop.
Please, before you bash hip hop with the mindless "the commercial xxxx sucks." - Try listening to the OTHER xxxx. Its common knowledge hip hop artists that get rich are sell outs and label slaves. REAL music fans wouldn't be quick to judge a genre based off the commercial side.
Its not hard to get ahold of "good hip hop" - if you havent heard any, you deffinitly havent looked for it.
And if we go by commercial standards:
Rock, Hip Hop, Pop, and Techno are all played out.
I hate people who judge hip hop based on "crunk" music. Ugh...
