Why UK Hip Hop shouldn't be dissed......
Posted 12-30-2007 at 03:50 PM by Sion De Freitas
I been harping on about this since I came here, and it still goes on, but I feel that Hip Hop should be appreciated as a trans-atlantic/global force. Music is universal and will always be IMO. I have been listening to Hip Hop since I had cable when I was 2. I still listen to it today, and Have decided that I want to contribute to my favorite genre of music. It's the same with many other people like me in UK.
I am by no means saying that UK Hip Hop is better than US Hip Hop, because it isn't. We don't even have our own proper industry, we are nothing more than a nationwide movement at the moment, but we feel we have the potential to offer so much to the table, and we have offered some in the eys of quite a few. So I ask, is there really any need to chastise us just because we like Hip Hop, and want to contribute? Somehow I don't think so
