Hip Hop Is Alive

Filed under: Thoughts On..., Music

So honestly, I’ve been a hip-hop fan for many a year but lately things are looking pretty bad. I should clarify that. What they play on the radio is really bad. In the days of The Sugarhill Gang (who happens to be in Humboldt tonight) and Run DMC, the lyrics were light hearted, fun, and very clever. Now days you’ve got hip-hop songs like Crank That Souljah Boy which have a lame beat, and one line of lyrics.

A few weeks ago I was reading one of Jude’s books to him and thought to myself, “The words, the rhymes…this could be a better flow than most stuff I hear in pop music.” Having absolutely no music production tools or skills, I went forward on this thought anyhow.

I now present to you Jamberry, by Bruce Degen with a sampled beat from the Lifesavas.
