This might sound weird but I have to be honest, sometimes I get tired of hearing myself talk. I realized that I can be preachy, repetitive, and when I am lecturing someone on what I consider to be "real Hip Hop", a voice in my head bluntly says, "Will you shut the fuck up already!!" That being said, I realized that my favorite pastime, besides throat-chopping black republicans and penetrating women with questionable pasts, is constantly coming up with what I feel to be fitting analogies on the current state of Hip hop. Here is my latest diatribe on the state of Hip Hop, which I stand by, but I have so many of these silly analogies I'm getting sick and fucking tired of myself. Here is my most recent one, when talking to this coffee-shop chick at a book store about Hip Hop. Try not to role your eyes too aggressively:
HumaniyCritic: "Listen Sugar tits, Hip Hop to me is like having a thirty something year old son who is now in a coma. Based on his incapacitated state, nothing productive is coming from him at this time, so I'm forced to rely on joyous memories and other evidence of happier times until he wakes up from the state that he is currently in."

That was excellently put.
I would like to know though, what artists are you feeling now? I've been listening to a ton of Justice League and Def Juz artists... along with Marley Marl shows on my ipod.
I couldn't have said it better myself...well, not the Sugar-tits part...but you know what I mean...
have to say i agree with diva
Deep.
I'm feeling you on that one!
Our opinions on hip hop are quite similar, however I was telling a friend of mine the other day that SOME HipHop is actually as good as its ever been. I hear a lot of really good shit, about the same amount that I always have. The difference is there is so much BS out there getting the major play that unless you are literally mining the internet and local scenes for gold nuggets, you wont know it. Its the same amount of gold, just more bullshit to dig in to find it.
word ...
and in what condition will the boy be in when he comes out the coma ...
If that boy is not brain dead, he surely has to go on some type of therapy to get back to where he once was...
I just don't want to pull the plug on him yet...
And let the church say, AMEN.
Nice analogy. Sorry about the eye-roll.
