I tried to tell people I had a new mix CD out a few months back that featured all the artists u just mentioned, plus Mos Def, & a bunch of other artists in which i produced every track on the CD...No one replied except maybe a few heads, but only one person on this board actually inquired about it....Thanks BTW Chis
Mainstream hip hop, & music in general is in a sad state right now. Thats why I either listen to old school, or good underground artists like Little Brother, mos Def, Hi Tek, Talib Kweli, Zion I, Grouch, Pete Rock, De La Soul, KRS 1...ETC.
Even R&B music sucks nowadays because nobody sings soulfully like they use too. Hell, u dont even need to be talented anymore because they have computer effects to make it sound like u can sing (I.E. T-Pain)...
I have been producing good music for years. I have done quite a few tracks that living legends fans will be familiar with such as "no more greener grass" by G&E, "Classic", from the living legends album, & most recently "yardwork" & "watch watch" from grouch's brand new album....I also did "True Magic" by Mos Def, "can u shout" & "cuthroat soup" by Mac Dre, & countless other tracks for bay area & local artists....Hope I can get a few peeps on here interested in my music....
Peep the MYSPACE if u want to hear a few of my tracks....

I tired of folks telling me to throw them bows or asking if I ever seen a chevy with butterfly doors. I want to hear about things that matter. I want to hear about things I can relate to. Like, $4.00 a gallon gas and how the government cares so much about iraq, but doesn't set the same standards for 3rd world country's ruled by dictators in Asia and Africa. Like, how they can spend billions on a war, but little kids go with no food to eat hear in the US. Like, how police can murder innocent people and get away with it, but can't seem to put the right people in jail. I want to hear music like NWA's "Fuck The Police", Wyclef's "If I Was President" and Tupac's "Keep Ya Head Up"
Our schools are failing our inner city youth, minorites still suffer from racial injustice, and people are killng each other everyday. I know it's not the rappers fault, but change can start there.

I totally agree man.You took the words outta my mouth.I like rap but i just cant relate.Basically were all listening to jerks brag about all the money and cool shit they have and how they can fu*k anyones lady at anytime.Good for them but the average guy cant relate.How bout something we can connect with,jeez!Quit bragging already.After all were the ones that made them rich anyway.

sorry sir but can't do that. I also don't want to hear about people losing their woman, dog and car. lol. Although, I did go line dancing in N.C. White people do have rythymn, and the harlem shuffle has nothing on line dancing.

Hey peoples, thanks for all the input. Lots of new ideas and new artist were thrown out there. Hopefully, I can hear something different and new. I guess my biggest fear is being the old guy stuck in an era. Like that old guy that told us in the 80's and 90's that music isn't like what it used to be. Something to think about.

yeah you can hear about the family pick up breaking down and the dog getting shot country is real life stuff in the original post he says that they talk about stuff you cant buy or afford. that alone is enough to make me want to get up and get something if that is your thing.but i listen to all the rap that is out right now and old school on my xm radio. i can relate to both being that i like candy paint, butterfly doors and bling of course.
