"I Love Hip Hop"

How can you say that you hate Hip Hop music? Have you even taken the time to listen to some of the music? I mean what’s really your reason for feeling this way? Did you have a bad experience with it? Ok, I get it. You can’t relate to it right? Please make me understand, I begging you to. You know what? I apologize; everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion.

  These are questions that I want to ask individuals, when I overhear them talking down on Hip Hop music. Even though Dubstep is the #1 genre in America today, Hip Hop has changed the world, especially the entertainment world. This genre has come a long way, and the reason why I say this, is because back in the day you would’ve never heard Hip Hop music on commercials, let alone movies, well only the ones that had an all black cast, and even sporting events whether your watching the sport on TV or attending the event; now it’s touching the world and has also brought all races together, believe it or not. I have been to Hip Hop concerts where blacks were outnumbered tremendously; and I must say that it made me proud, because I’ve seen how far this genre has come.  

  Don’t get me wrong now; all Hip Hop music is not good, but hey there are songs in any genre of music that an individual(s) who loves that genre will dislike certain songs. Today, musicians and artists from all genres are coming together mixing genres to make hits; and it has been a success. We all knew Hip Hop could be mixed with any genre, when Run-DMC and Aerosmith came together in the 80’s and made the song “Walk This Way,” mixing Hip Hop and Rock-n-Roll together; it was a hit, and might I add a classic. Hip Hop has definitely earned its respect in the past 3 decades; and I believe will soon be the #1 genre in America. You know the hip-hop world is doing it’s job anytime Sir Elton Jon, says that he wants to incorporate Hip Hop in his music; now that’s BIG, and the reason why I Love Hip Hop.
