Hip Hop is not, i repeat not, about vitamin water
Hip Hop is not about blind loyalty, im a NaS and Game fan and when they fu*k up im the first to criticise.
Hip Hop is not about your buisiness prowress, all the money in the world doesnt make u talented or a lyrical god eg. P Diddy
Hip Hop is not starting beefs and walking away when the opposition responds
Hip Hop is not supposed to cater to the rich or the powerful white elite (Ja Rule, Cent, Jay Z and others are all guilty of this)
Hip Hop is not about law suits directed at companies or organisations who are puting your music out there
Hip Hop is an expression of urban culture directed at the oppressed masses in an attempt to inspire social conscience
Hip Hop is starting a beef and finishing it
Hip Hop is supposed to be an underground movement, bringing it to the forum of popular white america as a mere expression of rebellion defeats it’s entire purpose
Hip Hop is honesty, integrity, respect and most importantly honour
This site is full of little girls who rate a rappers abilities by what he says on the radio, how many entrepeunereal projects he has

well i fell u, but I disagree with the Jay-z comment
Hip Hop is honesty, integrity, and respect
But Jay-Z, 50 Cent are Hip Hop in my opinion…. They are two talented and smart street dudes who rose up from the conditions they were placed in and made a successful living off this music and business
Hip Hop is not about a beef, never.
Hip Hop is not merely for the Underground… It is a form of poetry placed in Musical form that is to be embraced by those who can relate.
Hip Hop is not always about an expression of urban culture directed at oppressed masses(It can be that, but it is also a way for people to express their feelings, emotions, and tell their stories of life in musical form.
Hip Hop is not a business that caters to the rich(Jay and 50 spit mostly for the hood, but rich people and white folks tend to love their music, how is that their fault?)
Hip Hop is about loyalty…. standing by the artists you identify with and respect… But it’s also about separating your favorite artists from the person that they really are… Everybody has the right to privacy(I think Nas is dumb for marrying a h*e like Kelis, but that’s my n*gga either way man)..
Hip Hop is a lot of things, but one thing it is not is close minded… Open your mind dude…
If every artist rapped the same, Hip Hop would have been completely gone from the face of the earth… We need artists like Boosie and Webbie to drop what they make, so that when an artist like Nas or Common drops that we appreciate the quality material more than we would if every artist was spitting the same…
Plus, GAME is not Hip Hop(he does everything you says Hip Hop is not as opposed to 50 and Jay, who actually finish beefs… it’s not their fault that rappers they defeat in beefs dont know when to stop)
