” Hardcore Ambassador ”

Even though Hip Hop is alive and well in 2013, I long for more aggressive hardcore type of frequencies…..Some of this new age “CUPCAKE RAP” that I have been hearing lately is enough to make a brother go into self-imposed exile…..

I would rather listen to some grimy ass punk rock than hear these dudes whispering about how much money they have – when the majority of the world scrambles for pennies (shameful in my opinion)…

I’m not talking about ANTHRAX, BIOHAZARD, or GREEN DAY, I’m talking about MOB 47, YDI, DISCHARGE, TOTALITAR, CONFLICT, RUDIMENTARY PENI, and many other important bands that are anti – establishment, loud, and most importantly, uncompromising when it comes to maintaining their initial creative vision..

Don’t get it twisted : I’m a die hard Hip Hop student till I die, but part of the reason why I got into Hip Hop was due to my attraction to abrasive, ugly sounds………

Hip Hop was never meant to be all crisp and pretty…..We were trying to get away from Disco and establish a more gritty, reality based type of way of expressing ourselves….

Anyway, I recently picked up a copy of “Why Be Something Your Not” by Tony Rettman that details the hardcore punk rock scene of Detroit 1979-1985……… Pick yourself up a copy if you are a hardcore enthusiast like myself…
