The Hip Hop Nation   has been  through some drastic  changes  in   the past ten  years. Hip Hop artist  have been convinced that the general population wants  to hear   fancy    jingles. Companies   aren’t signing a rapper  with lyrical wordplay  anymore,  Labels    are looking  for the next dance crave. It seems like the  record labels    want there artist  to be like  everyone  else, just as long as it sells . Let’s be true(p), artist  rap to make some form of revenue, but this uninterrupted flow of pop and dance songs are getting old . It has gotten to the point where I don’t even play my tuner anymore. It’s time  to get back to the real Hip Hop music . The music where you get excited when you hear a dope  verse line, not a dope  beat. Hot    beat+whack lyrics= A Hit, but cool beat+tight lyrics=no recognition.What has happened to the music I use to love?

 Where is the poetry in rap  ? Why does all Hip Hop  music sounds the same now? Will  rap music   ever be the same ? All these questions will continue unanswered until artist  find the love for their craft. Everybody can rap, lyrics are anything that rhymes.Everybody can’t be an  M.C. , you have to separate the two . You have your rappers  and  those who are an emcee  . there is a difference . Ex. Artist that repeats himself on every track he does, would be considered a rapper. An artist that recreates himself on every track will be considered an Emcee. Emcee are able to position words together in a way a rapper can’t. Reciting lyrics is an emcee’s craft, but it’s a rappers job. I feel that in the near future Hip Hop will rule again. It’s either that or record sales will continue to fall and eventually cease to exist. The only rappers that will be devising the big money is the ones with established names already.Their are a  couple artist out there that still bring true Hip Hop tone to the industry. Ex.Kurty Durty is what I call an Emcee. Check him out at the links below.
