There seems to be an on-going conversation on this blog about Hip Hop and it’s state; and the lack of being able to relate to it.
I have slept on Killer Mike to say the least. Over all I don’t like Southern Hip Hop, but I’ve been getting into Killer Mike latey. With that he’s come through pretty strong with his latest single. It’s pretty heavey.

I have to admit I really don’t listen to much new hip-hop (bar Q-tip, and that was about 5 years ago) any more. Unless you count Kanye and Jay-Z, who are hardly new (but still great). I’m pretty out of touch with it these days. Mostly as I am often multi-tasking and it’s really hard to listen to rap lyrics and concentrate on anything else. But my days of hip hop are decidedly old school. I’ll give this a whirl though.
Wow. This is AWESOME. Powerful stuff. Didn’t know anyone made hip hop like this any more.
