THERE ARE A LOT OF HIP HOP BANDS OUT THERE: THAT ARE VERY POLITICAL... AND
NOT TALKING ABOUT RAPE-ING BITCHES, AND POPPIN' CAPS IN PEOPLE'S ASSES....
ECT. LIKE "the coup" FROM OUT HERE (OAKLAND) OR "black star" OR "the
roots" .... I GUESS THOSE ARE PRETTY UNDERGROUND.... COMPARED TO WHAT
YOU MAY SEE OF HIP HOP (I.E. WHATS ON/OR HAS BEEN ON MTV)
ANYWAY, YOU SHOULD CHECK THOSE GROUPS OUT I MENTIONED IF YOU WANT TO HEAR
POLITICAL HIP HOP... DAMN GOOD LYRICS. =) xJESSICAx
<< this is my first post, other than my hello thing. well, anyway, i have to
disagree with one of the things said. i am not a huge fan of rap.hip-hop,
but some of it does have some good thoughts and ideas. for one example,
look
at arrested development. i dont know much about them at all, but i remember
hearing some of their stuff in a friends car. i remember one song
specifically where they are talking about political prisoners and the
such...i dont know. oh well. sorry for being off topic. byebye.
