When Hip Hop Was/Is Good

Maybe I am growing too old or just becoming more cynical as years go by. I understand the world progresses and society pushes changes for the sake of efficiency/profit but sometimes those old ways just feel so.....real (for the lack of better words). Hip Hop to me is one of those things that has changed. From the initial ingredients of true MC, DJ, and BBoy to the ever so digestable entertainment melody from Soulja Boy it has come a looooong way.

From a personal taste and stand point, I love what it was and what it happened again today at the BBoy Battle Competition brought to you by Poe at Avalon in Hollywood. The essence of lifestyle and glad to see a group of supporters from the old to the young.
