That last sentence astounds me, cuz it's seems so true. Can U imagine if our generation had to deal wit civil rights the way those b4 us did? It'd be total choas. Even back then, we had a balance. Not in just music but our views on how to get equality. Malcolm was militant. Martin was peaceful. But it was all towards the same goal. Equality.
Lately, I've been listening to stuff from 90-91. I can't believe how diverse Hip-hop was. Even tho Pac was more mid-90s, I'd still say 1990 was the best final year of an overall viewing of Hip-Hop. What Ice Cube said, what Public Enemy said, what JJFP said, Digital Underground, Kid n Play, Special Ed; I mean the list just goes on and on.
