Re: The Great Hip Hop Debate

Personally I think hip hop is more innovative now than dnb, dubstep or any other dance genre IMO. Some of the groups I'm digging the most include Dalek, Shadow Huntaz, Prefuse73 and Sixtoo. Some might say "but they're not strictly hip hop" and I'd say that's precisely their strength. For ...

I'm being facetious, although I dislike the distinction you have touched on something important about hip hop - most rappers' live shows are f...
