krs-one on hip hop culture, and a punk kid dissing him...along w/ some greedy capitalist white devil corporate music references.... (http://americanmule.com/features/index.php?area=article&type=15&id=430)

Hiphop is not all about KRS-ONE. Hiphop is not all about Nelly. Hiphop includes a variety of styles. But presently, radio and television programmers, as well as rap music and hip-hop editors refuse to acknowledge KRS-ONE's work, while steadily pushing Nelly (and similar styles) to the general public as authentic Hiphop culture. This is an act of fake hip-hop simply because such presentations are imbalanced and one-sided. Real Hiphop is not about one music production style, one rap style, one radio and video play-list, one type of Hiphop image, one or two cute faces on all hip-hop magazine covers, and one or two recording companies monopolizing the rap music market place! Hiphop is about originality, creativity and a variety of talented people building upon the greatness of Hiphop's elements.

hey wow, this is the first time i've ever heard of great music being omitted from the radio.. and who better to point it out than the "hip hop kulture", i'm glad someone's finally decided to "launch a final battle to once and for all define who can and cannot be dissed" in a rap.

somebody please stab me now.

I can't say I really understand what this whole thing is about, but I love KRS One for his political messages in the past. "Sound of da Police" is probably the best anti-police-racism sond ever made.

Whatever this whole 'diss war' is about, he's a talented man.

I hope KRS goes and dances on Nelly

the whole "diss war" is some new shit the kids are doing now, and krs-one is truly humbling himself by being a part of it....he says he did not want to have to mess with it all, as on the surface it is so assenine.

that is where the politicians and corporate fuckshits usually get you. their dealings are usually so foolish and silly on the surface, that they discourage you and put you in a position where all you want to do is sit at home and "not deal with it"

this speaks volumes for krs-one, and for anyone who criticizes him right now on this matter...
