“Hip-hop culture & the music business never announced any merger I’ve ever heard of! Therefore why would the music business be inclined to help advance the plight of the HipHop culture, when the music business is controlled by large conglomerates and Hip-hop culture came from the street! Hip-hop culture is EXCLUSIVELY practiced by a few and not the majority! What we’re hearing from the artists of today’s current rap music has little to no ties to HipHop culture! Rap is merely one facet of HipHop! There are other facets that those who were there during the inception and perhaps a period of time after the inception, were practitioners of, but that is not applicable to today’s rap artists because they’ve been severed from their umbilical cords when the music business embraced rap music” – Rahiem, The Furious 5
