    You're very right, there is some great underground stuff today. I just don't think that there is enough of it to say that the genre has survived and continues to thrive.

    I mix the old and the new. For example the last three songs I've listened to (at random from my huge playlist) are

    Murs - Eazy-E (2011)
    Gang Starr - Full Clip (1999)
    Slick Rick - Teenage Love (1988)

    As for making my own rap, I don't want to add to the endless numbers of terrible rappers who can't even string together a good 16, although I could still do a better job than what makes the radio...

    I'd argue that there are just as many, if not more, worthy MCs today than there were in the golden age, it's just that the mainstream attention has shifted to what the big record companies put out, and the talent pool has been diluted with the rappers who exist solely to fill, or emulate, that market.

    In my opinion the greatness of hip hop is the enormous influence it has had over other music forms and not an increasing quantity of skilled MCs who, for me, haven't been able to stretch the limits of the style as much as, say, jazz or blues did within the same amount of time. Differing opinions though I suppose.

    yet most of those people singing about fighting the man, actually ended up embracing it. The most hypocritical music type around...

    ...does anyone have the album this song is from (Power, Corruption and Lies)? Is it worth buying? I'm completely in love with this track.

    I'm talking about all the punk bands. It just went too mainstream, considering what it was supposed to be about.
