Has your lack of HipHop knowledge ever embarrassed the **** out of you?

it's nice to see that we have a good mix of abbots and pupils in the booth. you gotta admire that posters that admit that they don't know it all. it's a fukked up feeling but it just means that we have a long (or short) road to being the quintessential, unfukkwitable head.
to all the nikkas that don't wanna learn about the music. worst part is post of the niccas like that will probably only listen to garbage rap their whole lives.

No,my face stayed in a Source Mag in the 90s.
but i have schooled plenty of people about HipHop.if they try to disagree all you tell them to do is "Google it and see for yourself" then wait for them to say "aw man,your right!"
im not up on todays music too much so i stay out them kids convos about todays rap.and the stuff i do know about todays rap is because of THE BOOTH.

these. I have RARELY met anyone with as much knowledge on the subject as me.
Only maybe three times have I met someone in real life that knows as much. Not more. As much.
I love reading when somebody drops some old ass obscure knowledge, though. Like Art Barr does from time to time if you read his posts. A whole lot of stuff dude drops may seem like ducktales, but it'll be 100% accurate. Like his stories on the LL/Kool Moe Dee beef and how it really started.
that behind the scenes shyt.
Or, as much as our opinions differ, Big Mel.
There was this cat on this other board, dude only really started listening to a lot of hip hop maybe 5 years ago. Dude's a youngin. But I can guarantee that he dug in them crates and knows more about hip hop than almost any 10 casual listeners put together.
or Honerable SKJ.... it's something up with that dude and his behind the scenes/insider knowledge, man...

The mixtape game I fell behind on, and would hear younger guys playing stuff by artists I never had heard of at that point, but I've caught up. As far as general hip-hop knowledge goes, I have not met anyone IRL I can recall that was anything more than a casual listener.
