    This kind of Hip Hop sets the tone for the new transition. All of us who grew up with Hip Hop and still feel connected to it will have to be satisfied with a new lane of more mature Hip Hop sounds. All that talk of it being for young people is slowly dying down and even radio is reformatting to accommodate the older crowd of Hip Hop listeners. Salute to Common for growing up and not dumbing down.

      Yep, obviously artists like nas and common earned our respect with their skills as mc’a, but I have grown to appreciate these guys even more because of their authencity and their courage for being themselves instead of being coerced by the game to forcibly emulate and mimic youth culture like countless other OG’s.

      “Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense
      But I did 5 mill’, I ain’t been rhyming like Common since” Jay Z.

      Good music is definetly in the building! This song is real, and nothing short of amazing. I’m sure this is going to sound good in the movie.

    In the 1980’s “Civil Rights” leader Jesse Jackson said he was sick of hearing about the Holocaust (which had happened 4 decades earlier). Yet he’s still not sick of hearing about slavery.

    1. marty mcfly says:

      The Civil Rights movement and the protests today aint about slavery stupid ass. Slavery was a alot worse then the Holocaust because centuries of slavery and murder by the hundreds of millions is a totally different level evil.

        Coming from a guy that think white people are devil’s.

        1. marty mcfly says:

          Nice try but thats what you took from my comments. I explained to you the origin of the term “white people the devil”, the context of term and how it can also be applied to anybody with a “devilish” nature… You talking about what I think but just grabbing bits and pieces to form an argument. No

          1. el jim chapo guzman says:

            I will not argue with you Marty.

          2. marty mcfly says:

            Because you can’t so STFU go back to your klansmen mentality because you are a racist without any doubt whatsoever and your comments have made that clear as day. If you aint the white devil then you one of his demons cause you think the same as the klan does and thats a proven fact based upon the perspectives, assumptions and undertones of racism in almost all your comments.

          3. el jim chapo guzman says:

            marty you sooooo racist you happy we have a black president lol I love the hypocrisy…

          4. marty mcfly says:

            NOTHING I have said is racist, literally nothing but most of everything you have said on Rap Radar is race based with a negative undertone or insult towards black people. Your beyond racist, you at that point where you don’t even know your racist. That last comment you made is an example. You don’t even realize that its racist. I’m black, I cant be racist. IF and again “IF” I didnt like white people as a whole it would be based on centuries of information that clearly shows the larger majority of them not liking black people as a whole from an historical standpoint up until today. THAT is not racism on my part. Do jews overall like Germans? Of course not. Do the Japanese or Native Americans or basically any race of people just like white people for being white? Of course not. Why? The last five centuries has produced reasons why. Example from a oppositional standpoint and from the realm of politics, It would make sense for me to be happy a black president is in office because outside of his race my political views line up with his. Now if I’m supposed to unhappy because he black and not white? Thats ridiculous and furthermore your comment is racist. You wont be able to figure out why because your stupid but thats cool. Your racist and I’m not so IM BETTER THAN YOU and again “IF” I was the kinda person that just didnt like white people? There is overwhelming evidence that shows me why I shouldn’t. Black people NEVER established and institutionalized and enforced supremacy on hundreds of millions of whites be enslaving them, brutalizing and oppressing them… That never happened but whites did.

            obama I don’t like him, but it has nothing to do with his being half black. He’s just a nasty human being. There’s nothing there to like.

          6. marty mcfly says:

            Cause your a fool. Nobody with any sense at all could look at the life of Obama and say he’s a nasty human being… Like thats just a stupid comment period and part of that is because your a racist. You hate Obama cause he’s black but you too stupid to know it. I’ll tell you what, accomplish a quarter of what he’s accomplished in life and then form an opinion because Obama has proven himself before and after being the most powerful person on the planet. Not only his he president but he’s one of the most highly intelligent people we’ve ever seen on capital hill. FACTS

          7. el jim chapo guzman says:

            We will all just wait and see when the next election rolls around and just see how many black people come out to vote if there is no black candidate. Fact is there was a record number of black voters in the last two elections and more then in any other election…..coincidence??

          8. marty mcfly says:

            Again dummy the voter turn out makes sense. First of all did alot of black people vote for the other black candidates running for president? No, why? because they didnt agree with their talking points. Herman Cain also ran and did black people vote for him? No because he kept stressing his 999 plan and black people did not agree with that especially since when you turn those numbers upside down its 666. There are other black men that have tried to be president before that did not win the black vote. Obama had a grassroots base and he hired young people from all around the country to run his campaign and on top of that his civil rights law, community organizing, constitutional professor, Harvard law president and political experience in the senate was a very substantial list of knowledge that he had. You would have to be an idiot to not vote for Obama no matter what race you are because of course black people would vote for him. In the last century every time white people voted for a white president was that because he was white? White people in DC are saying the same thing about mexicans that oh once a latino runs their just gonna vote for him? Watch what happens when Marco Rubio runs for president and no mexicans or cubans vote for him. White people are gonna learn yet again that PEOPLE ARE NOT STUPID JUST BECAUSE THEIR NOT WHITE. Smh

          9. el jim chapo guzman says:

            Sure. I agree with this but a lot of blacks disliked Bush simply for being white. Racism is a two way street and until blacks realize this it wont ever be solved

          10. marty mcfly says:

            99.9% of the racism in america has been from whites toward blacks. Blacks not liking whites m=is understandable at this point.

          11. el jim chapo guzman says:

            I remember on election night, the news showing this much older black woman and she stated she voted for him because she wanted to see a black president before she died, she did not care about the issues at hand. That was her reason for voting for him.

          12. marty mcfly says:

            Well that would make sense you idiot. Its white people that say they want to see the KKK running the white house so they campaign for former members of the Klan. Its white people that said their voting for Romney simply because he’s white and they hate all black people…

          13. el jim chapo guzman says:

            endless wars in the middle east, drone attacks, electronic spying on US citizens, a health care policy that forces people to buy insurance and guarantees profit for the health care industry, bailouts of banks after the financial meltdown. Oh, and this man surrounds himself with Wall Street execs. I am highly critical of Obama but his policies are in no way far-left.

          14. marty mcfly says:

            Wars were going on before Obama became president and he ended the wars in the middle east and drone attacks made it possible for 90% of the american soldiers on the ground to come home which is now why less then ten thousand soldiers are currently stationed there. Healthcare was made better because now its affordable and the reason he forced people to buy it is because millions were dying without it and millions more were going broke because once they got hurt they couldn’t afford to get the proper help or any help at all. We will al get old and need healthcare, that fact that people put off their health is ridiculous. Obamacare in the next generation will save the lives of about 100 million people literally. If Obama did not bailout the banks, our economy would have totally collapsed and he would be in the dark ages of america in the present day. The economy is now making a strong come back and is recovering and growing at a faster rate then ever before in american history. Obama has his own administration and the Wall Street execs were already in DC before Obama became president.

          15. marty mcfly says:

            Your also a coward cause you just won’t come out and say your racist. Its clear fool. NO person can make the comments you have made and not have pent up anger and hatred toward black people in general. Its impossible. You’ve made more then 100 racist comments. Stand behind your hatred and racism, don’t just deny it like a coward when its put on blast.
