| | I think hip hop and country have a lot in common. A lot of people hate the genres and a lot of people claim the genre saved their life. Unfortunately, I'm not as in tune with country to talk about it much as I am with hip-hop, but here is something I don't understand about the hip. Why do the fans feel the need to defend it?
I hear a lot of "hip hop is dead". Now, granted, I've also heard a lot of "Rock is dead," but that's as far as it goes. When you hear "hip hop is dead" it then turns into a whole debate. A whole army of words to try and defend hip hop so it can still be considered art. Or music. Or whatever it is they are hoping for. Is that necessary?
If everyday pop music doesn't need defending, electronic music, rock music, RnB music, and is all still acceptable, why do we have to defend hip-hop?
So, at least I, am not going to spend my time defending hip hop music anymore. Its unjust to feel the need to.
