You ain't kiddin!!! I wonder at times if the fire or creative edge has drained out and now these young Kats are just following the script laid out for them!!! Something just don't feel right!! Good reply
Your right about there's more to life!! I'll be happy when these young Kats snap outta the damn trance/dream they're in!!


Every time I'm out and about around my way I pay attention to what people from 16-35 years of age bump in their whips and it is the same type of rap music. I rarely hear the masses of that age group bumping movement music. I don't even hear quality r&b songs that express love and positive vibes from chicks cars either, mostly ratchet mess music.

I may be in the minority on this topic but IMO I feel you can through music measure the consciousness of the people by what they consume musically. Don't get me wrong, sometimes I dig aggressive/ratchet/materialistic tunes from time to time. However it seems to be all I ever hear from mentioned age group.

I understand exactly what ur saying!! These young Kats out here in the Midwest get down with the same tunes!! I wonder at times if they listen to different sounds or are they locked in on the same music over and over!! When my kids would ride with me, I tried to play all flows of music. Just so they knew some of the best music is from groups that never get any air play!! Now with this internet they can listen to every level of hip-hop.. However, they don't.. Why, I have no idea!!!

I have been searching for this the past 10 -15 years. I did not know what to call it but Movememt music is the perfect name for it. I have been looking for it from the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Jay Electronica, JAY-Z last five years, The Roots, Little Brother, J.Cole and Joey Badass. The only females I can think of that tried was Badu and Beyoncé, Let me know who I am missing

Chuck D Breaks Down “State of the Union (STFU)
“State of the Union” started taking form while D was working with Prophets of Rage, the supergroup featuring Lord, Cypress Hill’s B-Real, and Tom Morello, Brad Wilk, and Timothy Robert Commerford of Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave. When roused by the administration, he kept jotting phrases and lyrics into his notebook. Whenever he saw the acronym for SOTU, the president’s annual address, D always replaced it in his head with “STFU,” fusing the track’s persistent call out of Shut the fuck up / Sorry ass motherfucker / Stay away from me. “The two other things, ’Sorry ass motherfucker. Stay away from me,’ just came from when I get into any situation, or near a person, that is toxic,” says D. “It’s easy to say, ‘stay away from me.’”

Props to Chuck D. Do they have a whole cd out with this yet?
I am surprised that Brand Nubian has not came out with anything new.
