Another example that proves Hip-Hop is dead

A couple of weeks ago I was told that Snoop Dog would be making a guest appearance on ABC’s soap opera One Life To Live. Not only was I not surprised, but not one else on the planet seemed to care, I barely heard squat about it. If Snoop Dog was Will Smith or Coolio I wouldn’t mind since they’ve both never represented real hip-hop and catered to the pop mainstream. I think Snoop is rich enough to not have to stoop this low. He is still very famous ( God only knows why ) but I think his “street cred” is all gone, especially after seeing this. Hip hop has officially sold it’s soul. Ice Cube is now Disney’s bottom bitch and Snoop is singing the opening song and guest appearing on One Life To Live. I hope he is investing his money wisely because I think this ride is going to be over soon. Good lord, what is the world coming too? KRS-One we need you!

What’s up Madonna’s butt?

I’m so annoyed right now. I was in the mood to watch Madonna’s video “jump” and when I tried to find it on youtube and other sites I saw this annoying message “This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Warner Music Group Germany“. WTF??? I am so tired of labels trying to censor every single thing the public wants to see. I give major props to the musicians and record labels that don’t freak out because video sites like youtube and myspacetv have clips of their videos and songs.

Since I didn’t want to be shady and find a site that’s showing it illegally I decided to go back a few years and check out one of my favorite songs and videos from back in the day , “Dance Tonight” by Lucy Pearl. I am still crazy for the song and everytime I hear it , I go way back , and think about where I was and what kind of friends I had at time of my life. Songs are fucking amazing that way. As you get older you identify so much memories after you hear a song that you haven’t heard in years. For me it was Dance Tonight and Tell Me by Groove Theory. I’m throwing in these two videos for you to watch. Tell me if it takes you back too.

UPDATE: 04/09/08 I found a video stream of the “jump” video on AOL. It has lousy commericals ads but it’s pretty tight. It also has other clips from her Confessions Tour!!
