What do you miss about old school hip hop music and why?

"Rappers aren't even from the hood anymore"

They weren't 25 years ago. Remember Vanilla Ice.

@souljasmooth. You are so right they are funny looking posers. Look at a group called Black violin. Go to YouTube and look at the video to the song "Brandenburg" They are classically trained hip hop violinists.  I don't know how to put links in the thread. If you do post a link so people can watch.  The video is hilarious.  It's perfect for the thread. 

calvin, you can post a link the old fashioned way by a copy and paste of the web address.

taters, your obviously familiar with some rap

Every time I think about hip hop or rap I put on a Sarah Vaughn album and the pain goes away.
