[video] Ill Doctrine Breaks Charles Hamilton Down to the Very Last Compound

Gotta love this…Ill Doctrine dissects the car crash that is Charles Hamilton.  This is the most clinical breakdown I’ve seen of one of these emo rappers thus far. I would love to see Ill Doctrine’s clinical analysis of Ross or Budden’s cuz he’s normally on point with it.

“Hip Hop Is Already Gay” Article Causes Stir on Net

This article has been making its rounds on the internet and causing a stir in the blogosphere…tell us what you think

NEWS FLASH! HIP HOP IS GAY AND BEEN GAY FOR A WHILE NOW!

I say that in the same context that Killer Mike said “Rap Is Dead” years before Nas copied and said “Hip Hop Is Dead.” We all know that there is still some good shit out there, so we can’t say ALL of Hip Hop is dead or gay. But, I will say, Hip Hop is more gay than it is dead.

My niggas, look at what you are being sold on a daily basis. As a friend of mines once pointed out, Interscope Records (and other labels, obviously) alone has sold us plenty of shit with gay undertones. Don’t get the wrong idea, I’m not calling 50, Rich Boy or Young Buck gay (although 50 does have his moments). But what’s up with those album covers. Say if I was actually a fan of these gentlemen. As well as WEEZY WEEZY WEEZY or the umpteen other rappers who insist on posing with no shirts on. Say if I had all of these CDs in my CD book. Wouldn’t that shit look more like a wall in a teenage girls bedroom? If you was to go over to one of your homeboy’s house and see wall to wall pictures of dudes with their shirts off, wouldn’t that raise some eyebrows?
