Despite the album having socio-political commentary, the mainstream media labels Ice Cube and his album as “Gangsta Rap”. Ice Cube released “AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted” which included commentary on sell-outs, Police brutality, riots, and ghetto life. This album made the mainstream notice Political Hip-Hop with tracks like “Fight The Power”. In this classic year, Public Enemy released “Fear Of A Black Planet”. Many classic Hip-Hop albums were released this year including LP’s from Eric B & Rakim, Kool G Rap & DJ Polo, and Lord Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth.

But go through the years and you will realise that even during this time, seeds were planted, bad decisions were made, and sell-outs would emerge that would later destroy Hip-Hop as we know it…

So where did it all go wrong? Who was to blame? Let’s start in the nineties, a time that most people refer to as the “Golden Era of Hip-Hop”. Mention Hip-Hop these days, and instead of thinking about graffiti, block parties, two turntables, and a microphone people think about diamonds, champagne, strippers, and chrome rims. The media, The Labels, and all the sell-out Rappers it seems, have done a great job of transforming an underground art-form from credible to incredibly crap. What’s funny is, that when you bring up “real” rappers in an argument more often than not the artists themselves have since disappeared off the face of the map. The only Hip-Hop they’re aware of is the bullshit that gets aired on mainstream radio and television. Every time you bring up reasons why Hip-Hop is great, the majority of people don’t have a clue what you’re talking about.

It gets tiring trying to defend Hip-Hop music, especially when the contemporary image is that of misogyny and money.
