You just seem cut because Australia doesn't have gangsters rapping around sydney and driving fully sick cars. You don't want "hip hop", you want an Australian HipHop Idol.

no his not hip hop because he raps about bullshit, his a gimmick and he makes pop rap. He misrepresents what hip hop music is.

Which is exactly what hip hop began as. An MC and a DJ - the DJ scratching vinyl and the MC randomly saying "hooooooooooo hayyyyyyyy" and random things to get the people moving i.e. party music.

you mean that only the conscious/ politically motivated shit can be labelled as hip hop?
no, but rapping about fukin chix (candy shop) is nowhere near as important as something like "mosh" or "sing like the moment"

im saying that superficial pop rap shouldn't be labelled as hip hop. It gives it and its true fans a bad name. this is gettin boring.

mate you lost. you're embarrassed as a motherfucker to admit that what you hear on the radio is hip hop. and if you're going by that argument, then half of Ready To Die doesn't qualify as hip hop by ur understanding.

what about Slick Rick - LaDi DaDi ? This is considered a classic hip hop song. And what is it about? It's just a silly story about some guy wkaing up, dressing himself, saying he's goodlooking, picking up chicks etc... So cos he raps about that it's not hip hop?

I dont get your arguments here.
