I chose to comment on this blog post by Daniel because of how true it is. Hip-hop has turned into a place where people who want to be rappers that would not have made it in the 1990's goes to and makes millions of dollars rapping about drugs, money and woman on every record they make. A person with no knowledge of the genre would could listen to a Tupac record and right after listen to any mainstream rapper in this current generation and would probably think that the songs were from two totally different genres. Daniel neatly packaged an argument that hip-hop has turned into an uncreative genre getting worse with every record released.

This is Hannity of Fox News interviewing hip hop legend KRS-ONE. Since this was broadcasted on Fox News and a rapper was being interviewed, the interviewer was probably going to go into delusional lengths at trying to make his or her guest look bad. Hannity made sure he distorted every KRS-ONE quote given to him just to make KRS look like a person who hates cops and America. But, KRS-ONE, being from the very intelligable glory days of rap music, made sure he countered every word Hannity said with what was really going on.
