" Blog Shots 55 "



When it comes to blogging about Hip Hop music it seems as if there are three different types of characters...

1.."REAL LIVE DUDES"...

This is the cat that actually participates in the art of music making......They have rocked stages, blessed cyphers, hit the yards, and put the work in....

Music is usually not a hobby for them, it's an obsession that motivates each and every part of their day in some shape, form, or fashion,.....

On occasion they decide to post something up for the world to see, not for the sake of stroking their own ego but for the purpose of sharing and creating dialogue with like-minded individuals....

2.."HIP HOP GOOGLE GEEKS"...

You know the type.......Dudes that try to over intellectualize every aspect of Hip Hop and act like self-righteous robots.....The funniest thing about these types is that when you ask them to show and prove in ANY aspect of the Hip Hop elements, they can't deliver the goods.....

Don't get it twisted......Hip Hop needs straight up fans that do not actively participate in the art form...But some of these bench warmers need to have a little more discretion when throwing out some of their cornball opinions if they don't have the skills to back it up....

3.."Hip Hop Schmucks"

With all this access to so much music, why would you post up the exact same shit as the next man on the REGULAR......Is it because your lazy ? Or maybe it's because you are a dick rider without your own convictions or opinions....

I'm still trying to figure these types out......

"Only Built For Z Share Links" is a fresh blog created by Step One that definitely falls into the number one category.....One of the post that caught my attention was the interesting compilation of Doo Wop highlights (The Best Of the Bouncemaster)....
