Chuck D on Lil Wayne

“That means that your Play school, Lil Wayne lollipop days are over.”

Chuck D, is an old school OG and laid the foundation for Hip Hop, and he refers to Lil Wayne as play school stuff, and not for men.  He made that quote to Fresno State.  Chuck is very vocal in representation and from most of his statements I have been able to ascertain, he is not agreeable to how some hip hop artists represent.  He feels the image Hip Hop is currently selling by some of the artists is leading and motivating the youth astray.  My guess is he feels Lil Wayne falls into that category.  Chuck D sums up what a lot of hip hop heads write when they are chatting about Hip Hop.  Chuck D’s main message is to raise appreciation for art after a certain level of age.

In a lot of Hip Hop discussions I have observed, Lil Wayne and Young Money are consistently called the death of Hip Hop.  Is it hater talk?  Honest criticism?  Just subjective dislike of Lil Wayne and the music he puts out?  Let’s get down to the nitty gritty and drop the conversations and regarding this issue of the holy grail of Hip Hop, and whether you feel he is a dishonor or not, to Hip Hop, in regards to his music.

Now let us get to some of Lil Wayne’s music…

Let’s be objective…

Do you like the song?

What do you like or dislike about the songs and the music?

Gangis Khan aka Camoflauge, if you did not know, is an emcee and hip hop artist from Scarborough, Toronto, Ontario.  He is an independent musician, putting out records under the moniker of Deepwaters.  The Deepwaters movement also includes clothing which has some pretty cool graf on it.  I have it photographed below.

The above is his newest song, which I believe is going to be on his newest mixtape and street album, “Ninja Music”.  The song is called “Younger Heads”.  “Ninja Music” is stated on his twitter to be out this week or early next week.
