Hip Hop critique #1

So I don't have much here...Accept for a few tidbits of info. Talib Kweli just released a new album in addition to that a new West Coast rapper has emerged by the name of Guerilla Black the name of his album is called Guerilla City. The man sound exactly like the late great Notorious B.I.G. (aka Bigge Smalls). Shyne went through something like this when he first came out but this guy just takes it to another level.

There's a lot of talk in the streets about the return of the West Coast. I think cats out there are just getting desperate. If you got to bring back 2Pac, Eazy-E and a guy that sounds exactly like Bigge to get some recognition then your sh*t is desperate. The West Coast can't do what they did in the 90's cause the their sjit ain't hot no more plain and simple.

The game hasn't changed for the better (except for a few minor exceptions that will be talked about at a later date). Hip Hop has become bloated and too popular like heavy metal got in the 80's. In the 80's heavy metal went through a similar phase in where every "hard" band had to have the power ballad. Nowadays every "gangsta" rapper has to have an R&B hook song by the neo-soul flava of the month. The sjit is getting too repetitive.
