To the new artist and the upcoing into the game. You need to watch this movie - learn the basics and the history first. Many artist right now that is getting all the attention don't really know what hip hop is. I recieve several emails from people wanting me to listen to a track or check out a youtube video. Its ok, but not impressive... to go out and tell my followers to buy it. My advice is to become more lyrical and have a genuine "flow" with your song. Going with the trend will only put you in a catergory where you really should not be.
Eventhough this movie is a bit old - it came out in 2005.. it is still till this day educational for Hip Hop artist today. Learn your history...
I like chatting with one of my Twitter friends - @EASKI on what hip hop is like. All he can do is shake his head at it. I agree -- this shit is something else .
