PBS hip hop

Finally watched Byron Hurt's Beyond Beats and Rhymes.

If 50 cent and Jadakiss and all those people I'd like to vote off hip hop's island are stacking bank so that they can become indie label producers, than I'll forgive them for ruining one of the liveliest sectors of contemporary music. If they are secretly planning on systematically taking down the crap that they produce, than I think they are more hip hop than the stuff I listen to.

I hope. But it's not going to happen.
