Is Hip Hop Dead or Does the Industry Need to Step Up Its Game- Part 2?
Hip hop is not dead... It’salive, but not as well as it used to be. The game is
in transition. New sound is being discovered, while old sound is being revisited
and reinvented. Hip hop fans are waiting for the two to mesh.
Hip Hop is still important. That’s why everyone is talking about MTV's "Hottest MCs VIII
List". It’s relevant who’s ranked the hottest MCs and in what order. We want to
know who is considered to be the best. The artists even wanted to have their own
say. Kanye West even called Hot 97 because he felt the need to voice his
opinion. (This even matters to the artists.)
He didn't want the music to speak for itself; he wanted his say in the process. But this does not change the
fact that the consensus was that he, and other artists need to step up their
game, especially if they want to be crowned,‘Number One’... not only on the
MTV's "Hottest MCs VIII List"... but to hip hop period. Send your feedback to
