i am a hip hop backpacker...

my favorite sayings are..

"Thats not real hip hop."
"I never watch MTV or BET or listen to the radio."
"I miss the good old days of hip hop, circa 1994."

for you people who aren't up on the lastest hip hop culture and the inner workings of the culture. definition of a backpacker.

i'm not saying i don't like what's on the radio, just that people think that's what hip hop is. and YOUR WRONG! corny ass beats with snaps and dudes talking about how much money they have, how many hoes they're going to fuck, and i used to sell crack on the block. half of these dudes didn't even do that shit. i'd rather hear real talk. tell me about improving the culture... smoking some weed and chilling with your boys... tell me a funny story. what every happened to the days of slick rick and story telling, and not about the "trap."

i love my messneger bad and i'll rock that shit til i die.

here's some old school and new school backpacker ish to pump in your ghettoblasters...

a tribe called quest - people's instinctive travels and the paths of rhythm
rakim - the 18th letter
pete rock and c.l. smooth - the mecca and the soul brother
murs - murray's revenge
souls of mischief - 93' til infinity
gift of gab - 4th dimensional rocketships going up
