VERY TRUE ... =)
<< I've always considered punk and hip hop to be very similar. The both
involve music that inspires a whole movement and lifestyle. They are both (if
they are thoughtful and meaningful) very political and smart. Both movements
also seek to make changes in society, while society as a whole has considered
the music to be threatening.....maybe i'm an asshole

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
