Hip Hop in a post-11/2 "moral values" world
Taye Diggs' is getting death threats: maybe the cops should be investigating this guy? "These Are Our Heroes (Coon Picnic)" (New York Post | mp3 via hiphopdx.com)
Meanwhile Broadway truly is dead - It's Karate Kid, the musical (?!!)
More mp3's via hiphophavoc.com:
Ludacris "The Potion" - club banger status (although sounding a LOT like "The Jumpoff")
Cam'ron feat. Kanye & Syleena Johnson "Down and Out" - arguably the hottest record in the streets of New York right now.
2Pac feat America's "Other First Lady" "Ghetto Gospel" this Eminem production is not bad, but does this collabo with Elton John strike cats as just off somehow? And Em working with that dude again - should I be reading anything into this? (More good mp3 here)
Unknown 2 No 1 - the Iraqi Backstreet Boys.
I'm really only kind of a connoiseur of the art house/festival circuit martial arts movies so this House of Flying Daggers is looking kind of crazy to me - what's really gravy with this film, anyone seen it yet?
Is the "hip hop nation" confused? Panama Jackson thinks so. (allhiphop.com)
And are people getting more up in arms about the misogyny and sexism in hip hop (this is news?!) now because of the new "moral values" world we live post-11/2?
