Long live hip-hop

[Pug]

After months of searching for new hip-hop acts I'd never heard of, I've discovered so much good hidden talent that it just blows my mind. I check sites like bandcamp, various blogs, and man, there's just so much stuff out there. Sure there's some crap, but it's nice to dispel the myth that hip-hop is on the downturn. I just bought 2 CD's yesterday... CD's! I rarely buy CD's, but when I find an act I like, I support regardless.

Long live hip-hop!

I recently said the same thing, great minds think alike! https://www.illmuzik.com/forums/showthread.php?t=28660

Exactly. I always believed that if you work hard enough, you will be rewarded. So if you're an artist that has good music, people will buy it just for the sake of supporting good music.

@Dac, word up, I forgot about your thread!

@Fade, that's it, I will always do what I can to support good music!

Here's the funny thing to me...It really seems like most (not all) of the big names are sticking to their guns...basically putting out a CD with 2 or maybe 3 killers on the album while the hungry vets and newbies are dropping albums with maybe 2 or 3 duds on them. It's some really good hip hop out there and I mean everything from swag to dirty to boom bapp.

true, there's loads of good stuff out there. but there's also a bad habit to over-output / web-release mediocre productions.

@mono: I try to post what I can in the underground section. I sometimes forget to post though... but if I find something good, I usually post it there!
