i think listening to breakbeats is just plain stupid.
they're just the same repetitive pattern over and over again.
they're meant to be that way.
SO THEY WONT DISTRACT PEOPLE WATCHING THE BBOYS.
they're meant to just provide a background tune.
its like milk to the honey stars.
instrumentals are only nice if they're technical, or contain variations in sound.
canon in d is nice.
anything from the boty soundtrack?
fuck off.
nice to dance to.
but shit to listen to.
you guys wanna listen to stuff, listen to some real hip hop.
hip hop isnt about just bboying.
its about the traditional elements coming together.
rapping.
bboying.
dj-ing.
graffitti.
(beatboxing is, honestly, just a poor man's substitute for a dj. thats how it originally developed.)
you cant really immerse yourself in hip hop culture without knowing about about its elements.
and honestly, 1 only is incomplete.
its like dancing to no beat.
conversely, its just like listening to just the beat.
which is breakbeat.
it seems incomplete without watching a bboy dancing to it, or hearing an MC rapping over it.
hence i think just listening to just the beat is incomplete.
i'm already getting flame for this.
i wrote it this afternoon and had to go out so i left it half done.
so now im finishing it.
so anyway.
here's proof.
yuxuan. you feel like dancing when you listen to a beat.
thats what it should be.
beats are to break to.
im referring to when you're not dancing.
when you're on the bus, for example.
its hell to you to listen to a beat and not dance.
and yeah. there's lots of hip hop not meant to dance to.
there are raps just to listen to.
stuff to chill to.
G. Funk.
Chopped & Screwed.
you cant break to that. you just listen to it.
Song- Just A Lil' Bit, By Too Phat (Ft. Warrren G.)
Hip-hop be running thru our veins
It gets us up in the morning
Hip-hop keeps me sane
Wherever you rapping
It's embraced across the globe
It's truly amazing
How it gives people hope
That beat is dope
Y'all holla at the DJ.
(This is another verse. its weird to slot it in, but its really meaningful.)
Whether blue or purple
Black or white
Light brown
It's not about skin
But B-boy battles
Who outtwirls and outspins
Screaming (Go B-boy!)
While B-boys gets busy
In hip-hop "whuttup?" hello
And for sure is for shizee
D-rags and corn rows
And kids with pants sagging
Shaking aerosol cans
While bombing and tagging
While DJ`s is crabbing
Scratching breaking styluses
Hooking beats and moving
More heads than hairstylists
Somebody better tell me
Where them bootleggers and pirates is
Should rush 'em all wit viruses
Or put 'em where Osiris is
I hear no promises
So till then
Y'all see me bawling
I’ll keep y’all head bopping
And stay yes yes y'all-in.
God bless
