Mr. Lif, although Def Jux gets too eccentric for me some of the time, but he is dope.
The Pharcyde? I never saw the video, but I know they have a song called Drop.
Psychologically, it is called the ingroup outgroup bias.
People that are in a group (like a rock lover for instance) tend to see music that is inside their group as very diverse and music outside their group to all be the same. Since they aren’t exposed to hip-hop’s many styles, they go off what they see on MTV. Meanwhile if you say something about Good Charlotte they will scoff at you because they know it is not true. Think about it. White people may think that all Asian people look alike, but that white people each are diverse and differ in appearance, and vice versa for Asian people. But if you become exposed to Asian/white people or rock/rap music you will generalize less.
25, would be tons more if we counted Music before it was divided in to categories.
It’s misunderstood, because outsiders judge it by what’s being played on the radio, MTV, and BET, when really, the underground music is often a complete 180 in terms of beat styles, skills, and subject matter. And then it also gets a bad rap in the media because of how it is being portrayed, I remember hearing the other day that someone actually suggested hip-hop may be responsible for Mike Vick’s dogfighting scandal.
Too Short is Oakland, Andre Nickatina is San Francisco. That is unquestionable.
