post something you think encapsulates the essence of what hip hop means to you

for me its probably this video + song. it reminds me hip hop LIVED at one point in time. it all came together in this video. art, poetry, dance. hip hop wasnt just throwaway club music, it was a lifestyle

i have a few, but one happened to me a few months ago that was a little more quiet but it was cool. i was headed to the bodega to get breakfast and there was this kid...he had to be about 10 or 11 and he had his mp3 player blasting Juicy on repeat bopping his head reciting all the lyrics. it made me feel really good.

The first thing that came to mind was KRS physically throwin' PM Dawn off the stage at a show. This is back when Hip Hop had a standard that you had to live by and sellin' out or even being suspected of it, were grounds to get seen for it.

I miss that conservative look that the culture had back then. Wackness was banned! And if you slipped up or didn't bring good shyt to the table, you were reprimanded for it. To think that KRS, the "stop the violence" cat would toss a dude off stage, THAT was the epitome of Hip Hop to me.
