XXL Magazine is a Joke

XXL MAGAZINE FRONT COVER (MARCH 2010 ISSUE) – GUCCI MANE

The staff over at XXL towers are desperate and have run clean out of ideas. There can be no other explanation for featuring the talentless Gucci Mane on the front cover. This is ridiculous. Gucci Mane is a joke and gives hip hop a bad name. What is the so called hip hop magazine calling this hack? “Rap’s Next Big Superstar”

Why didn’t they feature the legendary Rakim on the cover?  Or someone who actually has talent. Why don’t they try to discover an artists who is… an actual artist? I thought about putting a Gucci Mane video on this post but then thought better of it. I don’t want that trash polluting my viewers. I bring real hip hop to your head receptacles on the double and don’t slack with no trash like Gucci Mane. Down with XXL if they keep bringing this garbage.

Interview With Hi-Tek

For whatever the case may be, when top tier producers are mentioned/discussed, Hi-Tek doesn’t really come up. I feel like this man should get more respect. As I move on… Here’s a quote from Hi-Tek speaking on the infamous Rawkus Records.

“Rawkus was like the home for us,” he continued. “They definitely created a lot of monsters and they had a lot of great opportunities with a lot of great artists to this day that they didn’t even take advantage of, let alone us, so I wanna say big up to Jarret and Brian for what they did for me and my career.”

XXLmag.com – Big Pun, Book of Rhymes, Vol. 1

Ten years ago hip-hop lost a legend when Christopher “Big Pun” Rios died from a heart attack and respiratory failure in a White Plains, New York hotel room on February 7, 2000. When DITC member Fat Joe began working on his own collective, the Terror Squad, the centerpiece of the crew was Pun, whose 500-pound physique never obscured his lyrical dexterity. The first solo Latino MC to go platinum, Pun put a stop to all that Rico Suave talk with dizzying tongue-twisters like the classic from “Twinz”: “Dead in the middle of Little Italy little did we know/That we riddled some middleman who didn’t do diddly.”…

If you look into the history of music you notice that some art forms have died out such as Blues and Jazz. Then you notice that Rock Music has stayed with us forever and it doesn’t look like it will be leaving us any time soon. Why has Rock stayed with us? Because Rock evolved and branched out just like Hip Hop is doing today. You have so many different types of Rock music it’s ridiculous.

So maybe Soulja Boy is selling ring tones and appealing to the younger artists. I don’t bump Soulja Boy myself but should we respect what he’s doing? I think so. Soulja Boy managed to appeal to a new audience and bring them into the Hip Hop genre. Think of it this way… Soulja Boy brings in a new audience for Hip Hop music, making the hip hop community grow bigger. Don’t you think these Soulja Boy fans might end up buying a Jay-Z album, Nas album or even YOUR album in the future? Now I know a lot of people who like his music download ring tones and they may just listen to “Crank Dat” because it’s a trend but I’m sure there’s a lot of kids who would dig deeper into the genre to listen to more music. I’m sure you all have that ONE artist who got your interested in Hip Hop. For me it was Snoop Dogg. Now Snoop Dogg is a legend in hip hop but if you were to check my playlist now you wouldn’t find a single Snoop song. Thats not to say that I don’t like him, I have just lost interest in his music.

Hip Hop has gotten to the point where we have people doing dance records, auto tune love song etc… but so what? Does “Real” Hip Hop still exist? Yes.  It is just less popular than it was during its hayday. I think coming up in the Hip Hop game is A LOT easier than it was 5 years ago. People often complain that “real” hip hop doesn’t sell anymore but I think it all depends on your hustle. If you build up your own fan base and create a buzz you will definitely get signed to a label. Labels don’t want to take chance anymore because THEY DON’T HAVE TO! but guess what? You don’t need to be “magically discovered” by a label anymore either. Now the ball is in your court. I don’t care what kind of music you do… whether it’s hardcore underground hip hop or if you invented Fart Music… if you grind and push your product you can easily become successful. I think people spend too much complaining about the state of hip hop rather than adapting. Face it! Things change and it will always change. If you don’t adapt you will NEVER be successful! That being said mainstream hip hop has basically turned pop. The same way that boy bands came out of R&B, hip pop has came out of hip hop. Underground movements like battle rap leagues including World Rap Championship and Grind Time Now are growing every day.
