Follow My Rap... Hip-hop is a Movement

"

         Rapping was storytelling through rhyme and poetry. MC's creatively accompanied instrumentals including samples, with savy lyrics to create a track. Now, that society has given the title of being called a "rapper" some odd and shady categorization within the culture, hip-hop music has lost sight of its purpose; telling the story of those whose voices have historically been restricted.

     But, because "we the greatest lil bruh",

         Rapping gave a voice for developing what could have been the movement of a conscious culture and instead we are left with only a market which no longer stands for any rhyme or reason.   Rap stood for rhyme and poetry, but hip-hop today is satisfied by spontaneous thoughts and ideas of helter-skelter phenomenon as long as it can sell.

          The expression does not necessarily present the culture of hip-hop as a movement that will speak with dignity and reason historically for generations to come.

          Rap found hip-hop and now hip-hop's losing its rap.

         What I'm trying to ask is what are you following?  Roscoe Dash' "H.A.M., upgrade from bologna"? or Jadakiss' "We were made to amaze and bring change lil bruh?"

        I'm just saying lil bruh?
