The above banner is link to a free download of a complete album created by Freespeech and Ro Blvd. They also have a video up. After a little web surfing and educational listening of demo trackz on their respective websites I realize these guys are just a piece of the growing revolution that fights against the dumbing down of the current generation of Hip Hop kids and the next. Their banner says it all. Hell, I could say the same shit about a few "rappers" currently out there on our air waves. The Majors really got this Hip Hop thang fucked up.

Did you peep that new October 2006 issue of XXL? The Pac issue? Did you see that feature about how only T.I.'s album went platnum this year and how hip hop is dead? It was like the editors at XXL really believe that the health of Hip Hop is directly related to how well the majors perform financially. I mean, they throwen around "Hip Hop is Dead" quotes like bullets aimed at us grassroots and indie muthafuckaz. You know what? To all those rich magazine publishers and major record label patrons hip hop probably does seem dead. Because the fans are now taking a larger roll in the culture, and realizing that those dudes down the street are more real, more in touch, more musical, and easier to relate to than those fucken idiots on the radio.

Make sure you get ahold of that issue of XXL and read that stupidity for yourself. And make sure you download that "Laffy Taffy Rots Your Teeth" album.
