Mainstream HIP HOP is too sterile, unimaginative, etc; not the whole of the culture... |
even PROGESSIVE Hip Hop music for the most part is boring. This is coming from a fan of the subgenre. Most songs that come from that subgenre is just whining and bitching about how the "REAL" Hip Hop isnt being heard, but when fans run to see one of their shows, it just conplaining and crying. Murs on the other hand, does his thing, expressing himself to the fullest. He does the "this is REAL hip hop" song once and a blue moon, but most of his stuff is simple issues that he deals with, which I relate too. But yeah, even PROGESSIVE is bland most times...
