This is HIP HOP week on the 12th Planet. All of the posts this week will be about hip hop. Make sure that you check out Wednesday night's 12 Radio show. I will break down the battle between Jay Z and NaS.
Somebody asked me what's the difference between rap and hip hop
Hip hop is something that you feel.
Rap is something that you do.
Hip hop is born within you...it's something that you live
Rap is a vehicle
Hip hoppers are authentic and genuine
Rappers are created and packaged to be marked to the masses
Hip hop has been around for 40 yrs
Rap...at times...can be a passing fad
Hip hop embraces a culture that expresses individualism and unity.
Rap tends to embrace everything, copy it, then try to be something different
Hip hop is a Mercedes Benz
Rap is a Toyota Camry
Most good hip hop won't make the radio in 2014
Most bad rap will make the radio in 2014
Hip hop artists will respectfully "battle" or "beef" for lyrical supremacy
Rappers will "battle" or "beef" just for entertainment
Somebody asked me what's the difference between rap and hip hop
That's like asking me the difference between loving someone and being in love with that person. It's not the same
