It can only be ... ( 3 weeks ago by DayOneMedia)

It can only be authenticated by the transfer of bloodlines and DNA. No one but the African is qualified enough to speak of what it means to be African but the African. Everyone else only speaks from the periphery and fails to accurately consolidate the entire cultural experience into living word over rhythm. Whether we MC, DJ, or not we ARE still Hip Hop. We ARE the living embodiment of the spirit of Hip Hop. Everyone else only follows what we do in Hip Hop/African Culture. This is undeniable.

It's completely ... ( 3 weeks ago by Draydenstache101)

It's completely faif for you to say that Africans, or people of African descent, are the best at performing Hip-Hop and, for the most part, created Hip-Hop, but is it really fair to say other ethnic groups should be discouraged to try it? Almost all of the greatest MCs are indeed of African heritage, but the are some, RA being one of them, who are not. And what's wrong with that, why should it matter what their background is if the can't make good music and spit the truth?

I started typing a reply about how racist and ignorant / uninformed about hiphop dailyonemedia is. Then I started thinking about how he is probably not even "African American" Then I started thinking about how Clive Campbell was from the carribean and that he doesn't actually have any direct ties to Africa, making his whole arguement pointless....but then my head exploded from listening to hip hop because I'm not "African American"

My young ... ( 4 days ago by DayOneMedia)

My young miseducated children of the western imperialistic world. Listen closely before pushing empty rhetoric about what you think you know about so called Hip-Hop. First, try telling a black man that his color doesn't matter, even though he has and continues to face gross opposition based on his color. Tell nature, the grand architect of color, that color doesn't matter. If color did not matter, there would be no color. The only person color doesn't matter to, is the person without color.

Let us begin with ... ( 4 days ago by DayOneMedia)

Let us begin with the voice and rhythm of so called Hip-Hop and where it originated from in West Africa, to no coincidence where the bulk of Africans were accosted and brought here as slaves. In West African culture you have a lineage of both males and females who played the traditional role of what's known as a griot or djeli. Djeli's held the memory of their people in their hearts, preserving history through a vast repertoire of richly detailed chronicles set to music.

The djeli is a ... ( 4 days ago by DayOneMedia)

The djeli is a story-teller, poet, historian, philosopher, genealogist, and the archive of his or her people's traditions. The Djeli is a messenger, a broadcaster of good and bad news whether baptism, wedding, fetes, meeting, assembly, death, or war. S/he is also a troubadour who with a drum under arm carries the news from village to village. She or he performs the role of the radio, telephone, and television. The djeli profession is inherited, passed on from one generation to the next.

One is born and ... ( 4 days ago by DayOneMedia)

One is born and dies a Djeli. One is a Djeli from father to son, from grand father to father; from mother to daughter, from grandmother to mother. The Djeli is the inseparable link between the being and the spirit, between the woman or man and her or his history, between society and its vivifying blood. What we now call an MC/DJ, is nothing else than a surviving legacy of this sacred ancestral West African tradition born into a New World.
