yes good one robyn - or even just the voice they speak with would be okay.

I agree totally, Kiwi hip hop should have a kiwi accent, but some words dont rhyme with a kiwi accent that do with an american accent. Still, i guess a tallented artist should be able to overome this

one thing i hate more then anything is people who attack what they dont understand, who gives you tha right to judge music.have you ever taken the time to sit down and listen i bet you have'nt because you only hear all the swear words and gangster vibes that come out. Maybe if you hear the soul then you could be true lover of music no matter what type it is, and with this i leave you with a quote by someone you may not have herd of >music and me go togeather like in harmony
P.S fuck what you say

define me as what you want, cause at least i no my words my words are being heard and you didnt stop listening to hip hop, , hip hop stop listening to you. . .

Phobia, dude, your words aren't being heard, they are being read. Hip hop did not turn its back on me, as far as i'm concerned, it doesn't have a back to turn.

You like your music, i'll like mine. But hip hop to me is horrible, i'm a new zealander and that is my definition of hip hop.

I saw nothing funny about that. People are entitled to their opinions of music and that is my opinion of Hip hop.

// I would not die
Neither would rewachick, not really anyway, maybe there would be some people who would spent the next couple of weeks moping about the house, some may even dump a brew (40 oz where available) for hip hop but I seriously doubt banning hip hop would prove fatal to anyone.

Taka all the way.

//Taka all the way.

Are you one of those 'nini' girls? Hahahahahaha. And silly me thought you were from 275.

Non Breed...if hip hop was banned then it would take this genre by storm!

how would it take any genre by storm if it was banned? and how does a genre take over a genre?

If hip hop was banned in our country then this would take this to a much higher level. All the hip hop fans would be devestated, pissed off & be doing heaps of undercover material for the sake of promoting it to the extreme. Its like cannabis sort of, where its not really allowed but so many people are toking up that shit for real. So it would definitely take our country by storm by way of being private, so "IN" in the world, so rich in its content to be hidden. More cats would appreciate it more & be willing to raise the bar (like Scribe) just to get it on the scene.

yeh it may sell good in your eyes but thats not what i mean im not intrested in profit. i wanna know the true meaning of new zealand hiphop and what it means to alot of us as a young country trying to inbrace it as our own

I like some hip hop, but most are pop, talentless shit that should be banned from ever getting into our ear holes!!!

Dont even mention M&M, he's the one that took it to the top for white-boys inparticular..I love him, dont even count him as cheap..he doesn't even come close thinking of his achievements as such. To down one of the best in the world is real absurd of you..Anyhow, Im down with any person involved with hip hop regardless what colour/breed/make/model they are. Rap originates from ghetto-cool type people but thats not to say that different people aint allowed to own it as well. Music is music & if we love it, it doesnt matter bout the identity of the owner..what matters is the identity of the music itself.
Beastie Boys etc...Dam straight..Hip hop is the shit here now, not before as posted on another forum & we shall not diss, dismiss or try & even seperate this newly found kiwi culture of ours from other genres.
We are doing our best & with the new cats on the scene..we are truly hitting the score day in day out as long as hip hop has hit households of Aotearoa...
Dont hate it just have a date with it..Hip hop now in New Zealand is here to stay..
INCREASE THE PEACE MUSIC FANATICS..

yeh im with you there jet

DEATH TO JAY-Z - hes a no-talent fag

True That! I hate Jay Z but a few of his songs I can listen too..no wait just only 1 where he's singing with Beyonce on this real slow track..he's just the background really & thats it but its a lovely song..real groovy yet so smooth to listen to..its called "Thats Why I Like it Baby" I think (!?).
Anyway he's a dick & even though I have my bit of my passion for hiphop doesn't mean I like every rapper in the game. JayZ is a dick & he will continue to be passed as this as far as Im concerned, so dont get confused because we make individual selections too when we sift through who we think are good artists.

You got it right Hilikus. My post a few posts back was supposed to be sarcasm...

Theres no such thing as a 'wigga' that shit is gay english..dont even go there! My definitions are a Nigga & a Fly White Gee..Get it right people..you starting to piss me off.

well if we dont as you say "bag it" then whats tha point of talkin about it at all, i dont mean to express nz hip hop in a negative way only im just another one of many in need for an identity of my own.
