OK, so I am well versed on both sides of the hip hop game.... I listen to everything, I am not one to be biased..... Why is it that all of the underground heads claim to be holy than thou and know everything about the culture..They always seem to sneeze at any and everything commercial... Lol, even getting some of them to try and listen to Kendrick is a stretch, they'd rather bump the new Roc Marciano......
I always ask them this though, one of the main things about hip hop was to have a good time... It's not always about the "lyrical, miracle, spiritual spherical, clinical"
I always shut them up when I bring up Run DMC, Afrika Bambaataa, being about that feel good music... fukk, I even remember seeing Big Daddy Kane dancing in his videos as a kid..... The underground purist can be really annoying
