voleuse's Frankenstein Meme, you've ensured that I am so doing this again next month :D
I was going to write a snippet of George Clooney for Office with Jake as the First Man, but thanks toantheia, y'all get music instead. Ahem.
I've talked (bitched) in the past about how hip-hop these days isn't really anything like hip-hop from back in the old days, and I think a lot of people who remember rap from the 80s will agree with me. There are plenty of people who write rap/hip-hop off as 'that noise' and if that's how you feel, so be it, but you're dismissing a lot of brilliance based on a few assumptions.
( Once upon a time not long ago, when people wore pyjamas and lived life slow, when laws were stern and justice stood… there was this thing called Hip-hop, and it wasn't about what you wore, or who you fucked, it was about the message and taking the piss and how your mom wouldn't buy you those Adidas you wanted -- This is Old Skool )
