Somebody Has to Say It

Reposting Chris Brogan topic Somebody Has to Say It  90’s hip-hop was innovative in its  movement, style, and grace. Some of the people who struck it big in the 90’s hip-hop scene include Tupac, Biggie, Nas, Eminem,  Jay-z, Lil Wayne, and Puff Daddy. These multiplatinum recording artist molded hip-hop into what it is today. Through fancy word play, image, style, and the unique ability to capture different generations, these pioneers revolutionized an art-form. Hip-hop was never the same after these heavy hitters introduces their amazing talents to the industry. In current trends today we still hear Tupac sonnets or Biggie lyrical flows in many up and coming artist.  Although artist like Drake, Kanye West, Two Chains, Lupe Fiasco, and Jcole  posses incredible talents, their flows will never match up to the 90’s hip-hop movement.

90’s hip hop cultivated a sound through spoken word that addressed issues like poverty and policy brutality. The blog site Justice For All also talks about policy brutality and I encourage you to check out the site. Hip hop in the 90’s reached out to the community and brought everyone together and it’s our responsibility to keep it up so check out the Justice For All blog site and take a proactive stance on policy brutality.
