"Message in Hip Hop"

August 1st 2008 14:30
Day after day, we see our economy sinking, war continuing to end the lives of United States' citizens, and rapid foreclosure rates. We are speaking out, but our voices are going unheard. But thanks to recording artists Big Boi and Mary J. Blige's new song "Sumthin's Gotta Give" as well as Nas' hit song, "Hero," the power of our pain has become a public issue. America takes on the Hip Hop community from the language to the dress code, but there is never much talk of the positive messages in some songs and the bravery of such artists to use America's gift of free speech to address the realities of the United States. So take a bow Hip Hop and R&B and continue to spread the message derived from the pains of the American people.

Though I live far from United States, but the problem is well known to me too. I perfectly understood your post because the whole world sink in similar ambiguity. Just think. At a moment the Olimpic Games were started, Russia started a war (attacked Georgia) and fire set peaceful town to ruins... I live far from these events, but my art therapy blog Really Long Link raises the same problem - what for do we blog
How much is the love
