I've been gone for a minute

Since 2011 alot of new music has been released. Hip-Hop/Rap is losing its roots. While some artists are staying true, many aren't doing much to keep Hip-Hop alive. Where is the soul?? Where is the originailty?? Hopefuls look at it as Hip-Hop is only evolving but i believe its just becoming more mainstream commercial and it seems like anyone can be the next hot artist if they have a bumping 808 , catchy hook , and bunch of cuss words. Respectable is an artist who can lyrically convey a message or story over a hot beat. Last post of mine was in Jan.2011 I will not delete the past but continue on my journey to finding REAL Hip-Hop , Hot beats , and crazy wordplay.
