Words From Fabby

Diversity


July 24, 2008 | Tags: none

What happened to the days in hip-hop where an artist would get credit for his ability to be versatile? It seems that so many fans nowadays no longer appreciate diversity. Is there anyone out there that remembers when Biggie did that song with Bones Thugs and he straight killed it with their style? Nobody said he was biting or swagger jacking. They loved the fact that a New York artist was able to change it up and still be deadly. Same case scenario with Nas when he came with "Big Thangs" off the I am album...crazy.

As of late in hip-hop, I don't see many artist taking chances anymore - excluding the likes of Kanye, Lupe, Snoop, and course not to be bias myself (there are a few more but sheesh this is a blog, you get the point. It seems that artists takes criticism if he or she goes outside of the box and tries something different.

For an example my latest single "2 MPH" has made many people make what to me is senseless comments. What you have to realize is a Bay area artist has connected with 3 Houston rappers to make a Houston based song. And on a first time listening basis you don't recognize the demographical difference. But yet and still in this day and age of hip-hop the fans don't realize how much of a big difference in slang, culture, preference these two areas have. A Big example I love to use n this case is Lupe's "Hip-Hop Saved My Life," where he projects himself as a Houston based artist explaining how hip hop saved his life. The hardships of blowin up in Houston and reminding ourselves that this guy is from CHICAGO.

That was fuckin incredible...

What sucks is there are no longer real true fans of music anymore. The kids these days just love songs, not the artist. If you haven't bought a album, sat there, opened it, read the pamphlet, checked out the credits, who did what and where it was recorded @, listened to it 5xs in a row, picked your favorite songs, memorized them and the album fillers. Then please don't place forth your opinion on serious issues.

The depth of artist cannot be determined by one song or two. It comes from albums and lifestyles. What we have to remember: this is business. And more then that - its show Business. It's just entertainment people. Open up your minds and ears. If an artist is handling his business, no need to hate. And don't allow your personal conviction or disdain for an artist allow you to hate when they doin they thing.

Some people hate Wayne, just cause they hate him. So no matter what he drops, they will say it's garbage. Keep it real! He's getting it in right now. Same as how people love Jay and he can have an off bar here and there (which he rarely does) and people will act as if he said the greatest shit ever spoken by a human before.

HIP HOP is all about DICK RIDIN and WHO'S HOT in the public eye. No more about who's really spittin and tryin new shit expanding an working outside of the box…

WHAT HAPPENED!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey man just lettin you know not all kids are as you explain in your blog. But yes it is like that with the kids I go to school with. They dont see the pain behind some of these songs. With them It is always like yo that song was "dope","it slaps","it was hella raw". Whereas they should say yo cuz that song was "beautiful" that song was "art". A song is good when It makes you think about how the person felt as they wrote it. Which is exactly why I no longer listen to rappers such as J-Diggs, too short, E-40, and jesus The Pack just absolutely has no talent. And I am not sorry to say that. All I am trying to say is I am that kid that buys the album of my favorite artists. That buys books written on their lives to bring me a little bit closer feeling as if I knew the guy myself. Call me another Tupac fan. But you have to admit his songs are far from dead. We need more music that isnt about the kinda clothes your wearing and no body gives a damn about what kinda car anyone is ghost ridin, as long as they're doin it. Basically the reason you, mistah fab, are one of my favorite artists is because you have songs like Deepest Thoughts, Jamonie Robinson, and My Life on Track. Keep it up with some of that sound.


one love,
bret

Yea. Right When I got My copy of Da Baydestrian on the first day, i was like damn the whole CD is hella sick. THen it made me download the Son of A pimp album and watch the Freestyle King DVD that it came with. IT showed what Mistah F.A.B. was. He is big.

And for Lil Wayne. I don't like the way he raps, but I don't hate. One or two songs are good.

I loved the demograph differences in the new song; culture and people affect each other and I could feel your expression of having been effected. You're not wasting your words, we're into your WORK and we feel what you're sayin, and thank you for saying it so eloquently for all of us.
We're growing with you, FAB! All Love <3

Now if this is not true then I dont know what is!!! Everybody is expecting almost every artist to sound like their favorite artist instead of respecting the type of music that artist is doing or respect his accomplishments from doing music.


For someone who has created his own style of music, and then switch up to trying southern rap, then to kill em all off with his freestyle game I mean come on people! F.A.B.
went from killing off everybody(literally) in freestyle battles, to becoming the best selling artist in the Bay Area to signing a MAJOR record deal with Atlantic! What more do you want from an artist? I'll tell you what, if the nigga started doing movies, that might give you guys som'n to hate on!

Untill then shit the fuck up, and go buy the next album this man puts out!
Period!!!

Thats Right,

FAB u said it if that ain't the truth then I don't know what is and you came so coo, calm, professional, and respectful about it just by readin it I knew that you was calm and that's why I love and respect you cause you see me I was upset about the stuff they were sayin about u but, instead of cussin and gettin irrate about it and hatin on them u you said it in a way that was professional and to the point that shows you got sense instead goin bad on dudes you gave em some real words to let them know how you felt and I respect you to the fullest for that now you made me wanna change the way I get at dudes for dissin you so instead of gettin mad and irrate i'm gon think of other ways to express myself like you did with real words.

EPITOME

 
Hey bruh this Epitome and I can identify wit what you sayin cuz in all reality the game HAS lost it's originality even personality majority of the people in the game are just gimmicks and use it just for a form of noteriety when they need to use the power of the voices to really address the issues thats affecting your community so if an artist from Oakland CA can relate to an artist from Houston TX then obviously it must be some simalarities between the two so it isn't about dick riding it's about coming to a common ground with the ones you can relate to. On a whole different note it's gettin ugly out here bruh I just got out of Santa Rita behind a police trying to flex his punk ass muscle and tried to get me to plead guilty to some trumpt up charges when my rights were violated and while I was "IN" I talked to alot of these youngstas "WIT THE SHIT" and basically it's about survival and we out here killin each other when we need to be focusing our fire power elsewhere*hint but now I had to comment get at me Bruh...................................................

DASHA PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION (NEW VIDEOS UP)

 
I know this blog is a bit old but I just felt the undying need to state my opinion. The problem with the the Hip Hop industry and music industry in general is that people tend to forget that music is a form of EXPRESSION and that hip hop was created by INDIVIDUALS that refused to CONFORM to the standards put forth by society. If people actually knew the history of this art form then they would have a greater appreciation for the music and a higher respect for the artists that put their effort into it. I get so tired of hearing the same type of music over and over and can't help but think "Does any of these folks have a shred of creativity?" I personally applaud you and any artist that can jump out that little box they try to put us in and explore different topics and concepts, it's called DEPTH. One of the greatests rappers who ever lived was 2pac, who rapped about A chick having a baby, something he could NEVER do, but it was well recieved because he wasn't being what most rappers tend to be, he wasn't being egocentric. When you can look outside yourself, and make music that appeals to everybody, and not just something that only yourself and folks like you can relate to, you are a not just a rapper, you are a true artist. You, F.A.B., are one of the most intelligent rappers in the game, you're a true artist, folks will recieve it, just keep doin' you... And remember, opinions are like ass holes, everybody's got one, and usually nothing but shit comes out of it, so don't mind the haters, lol...

Yeah Fab I mean I can't say I am not apart of this new generation but I can say this from the heart no joke that I love music for what I actually hear not what everyone wants to or does hear. Baydestrain was an incredible album I can just let it play over and over and I will never skip a song. T Pains cd is another one I do that with. I can actually say that there only 4 artists/groups I really pay attention to due to their "diversity" which are you...T Pain...Weezy...and Team Knoc/Sirealz/Tib because they are so different to what you hear on the radio. I understand I do get irritated by what people say about some artists but then again I guess they're intitled to their opinion. But set aside all the bull,ass kissin,and fakin you keep it real, no joke, I can respect that... Cant wait for that new album...I just hope maybe later on in life I will see kids about my age now will be maybe not ALL about music but at least more INTO it... It would put a smile on my face no joke.


1 Love Brah

Good to hear.

Man, that was something I loved about "Call your Click"
Hearing a bay rapper rap hip-hop 90's style and killing it.

Keep expanding.

I thought I was the only one who read the whole pamphlet..lol. I understand what you mean. Like that song with biggie smalls and bone thugs.. I never liked biggie but I absoloutly love how he flows in that song. I love all music from rap to r&b to rock and heavy metal. I see what you mean with lil wayne too. I dont like all his song but I do listen to them before I say I dont like them. I live in Georgia now and I can tell you out here people are so fixed on southern rappers they wont give other rappers a chance. I remember someone saying oh you from cali you must like snoop. Actually I like the old snoop. I didnt like the newer songs he came out with.

I am from the newer generation and I guess we dont like artist and we just pick and choose song because.. do you remember when you could put a Tupac Cd into ya cd player and the whole album was bangin.... It's not like that anymore. For example I went out and bought the Kanye cd. I wish I would have just downloaded the songs I wanted cause I didnt like the cd. I know I sound like I am hating but it's real talk. Im not saying all but most people dont buy cd's anymore for this reason.. There are still some good artist like Neyo. R kelly no matter what that dude does his music is still good. It's just my personal opinion...not tryna say certain artist suck Im just saying it from my point of view.

Hip Hop Is Fucked Untill Real Artist Come Together & Stop Workin With Wack Rappers. Just Cuz Your Cool Wit A Dude Dont Meen U Gotta Jump On Track With Them. I Thought Hip Hop Was About Expressin Your Self Or Comentin On Shit That Ment Something. Back In The 80's It Was N.W.A., Run Dmc & The Beasty Boys. All Very Differant Styles But All Had Substance To The Music. Twenty Plus Years Latter Their Shit Still Knocks. Do You Think In 2028 Some Kid Will Hear A Lil Boosie Song And Say "Man That Shit Was Awsome"? I Hope Not, & Its Dumb Fucks Like Him Only In It For The Money & Not Working On Craft Of Making Music. I Cant Stand Lil Wayne But Even I'll Give Him Credit For Evolving As A Artist. Only The True Artist Can Fix Hip Hop By Stop Workin With Weak Dudes Just Cuz Your Cool With Them. Fab U Gotta Spread The Word To The Rest Artist

Diversity- in order to make a hit diversitile song u have to know what different societys are into and whos hot in different areas....like u said, texas and the bay is different in all ways....anybody juss cant make a hit wit someone from a different place and expect everyone to bump it, music, beats, clothing, slang, all play a part- experience is the key....with out it- alls lost-i lived in mississippi, the bay, seattle and atlanta.... seattle is big on the bay, they bite the style so hard cus they have noe body else, but in the south niggas not on that bay shit like that.... e40 the pack n 2short are prolly the only bay rappers most of the people in the south noe about...next keak da sneak, then mac dre...noone else gets play time or realy mentioned ...its all about getting the right feedback and knowledge from the people who noe.., the trendsetters is who gone make yo shit hot...i am a trendsetta...

if u tryna go international and not juss on that same local shit, bridge in the gap...

I have had similar contemplations over a smoke with my partner. This is happening in a lot of genres of music. I hear people say how stupid the "hyphy" movement is...but those same exact people enjoy crunk sounds. Same with metal, everyone hates a lot of metal because it's "The same shit"...then they go and listen to a band that sounds exactly the same as the band they where hatin on. ....I don't know man, what I think is happening is people don't have passion for music anymore. I'm not going to lie, I love music. And yes, I have listened to albums and enjoyed a few songs...but with time, I grow to love and appreciate the artist!....Have you ever heard of throbing gristle??? Jesus christ, the most strange, outside the box band I have ever seen and heard. Yet they are playing at coachella this year and people love them!....As Kat Williams would say "We need haters in order to succeed.
