I’m afraid that the Pit bull requirements a specific kind of owner…these dogs, no matter how ‘tender’ nevertheless have teeth, are still animals without having moral concepts and when they DO bite, won’t let go. As in all creatures…some often be far more suseptable to instinctual habits and time and time again, this breed tends to accomplish just that.

potato makes some good points, you and the people you bring in are making/ have made a real difference. the real artists have their own influences already and versatility (kid sis has her chi-forever roots, cudi is a space-case, these people arent coppin’ steez from cats) etc that allow themselves to move artistically while others have to calculate moves even if they are still on top like jay (ghetto techno had potential but was a serious fail).

A-trak, I was listening to your holiday mix that you did with your broski at the LTD/Fools gold parlay! and you played Lemonade by gucci…and i never liked gucci that much but hes making a statement in HIPHOP now, you mention drizzy and cudder ect, but gucci and waka floka, other “NON LYRICAL” artists those are the new generation of “hiphop” as well, but College Dropout was album of the decade!

Phil,
Like Water was a great album too… Actually just the other day Mehdi mentioned on his 00s blog post that he thinks that album is too often forgotten about, and I agree. Meanwhile, critically, Be made a big impact.
Like Water VS Be is a very valid debate. I think Be left a bigger mark in the history books, but I’d venture to say that Like Water aged better.

Great post. I am a hip-hop head myself, and often hear some of my friends hate on that new rap wave coming up, saying it’s not like that og boom bap ec style. But fuck this, hip-hop is evolving, and I’ll listen to whatever entertains me, wether it’s that new Strong Arm Steady joint with Madlib or the last Gucci Mane album.

also: “his best album since Resurrection” -> What about Like Water For Chocolate trizzy?

I listened to an amazing interview on the website of the New Yorker on the subject of hip hop. The interviewee compared (traditional) hip hop music to jazz. He said a important jazz record hasn’t been made in decades.. but the music still lives on in jazz clubs and radio stations.

Jazz became a scene which will not die even though the music has ceased reproducing. Some people chose to follow the new forms of jazz and others have not. Hip hop and Jazz are movements which reached their full potential and cannot evolve.. any change would result in creating something entirely different (i.e hip-house, acid-jazz)
