How the music has changed!

13. July 2008 by Big Nizm.

In the midst of doing some brewing for new tunes and the like. It hit me

I oft reminisce on how I loved the music when I was a yute, and in my short time watching the music I am still in love with shift and change so much. In many ways though so have I have from almost 2o years (as well I should have changed, lol)

Getting older, and still in heavy pursuit of the music, though it’s very important to realize what got you in in the first place. Being in music can be compared to a long-term relationship, and if you get in the rhythm of a routine it gets boring.

As an artist.. it is a struggle to keep up with putting you in the music, plus keeping up with mechanics.. and  a whole buncha other jargon..

That is til you hear a song and it takes you someplace..

And it all comes back to you of why you love what it is you do.

Lately I had been getting bored again with the music. Just seems pedantic. People dont even try know more.. just make a jingle, a dance, some 808 kick drums.. some coonish lyrics and walla.. a new ringtone that looks for 3 minutes called a song

But the new Nas album, and new Cube material taking me back.. getting back to having lyrics AND good beats

Lot going on in the music.. when i first started loving this music.. cassettes where the shit!, then came cd’s now.. folks download

cheap, to expensive to free

Yet as trends, mediums, and the art change.. people are the same.. The constant variable in music that is necessary to create it.. People still struggle, smile, cry, fuck, eat, sleep, shit be political, be ganxta..and other things.. all of which are paramount to the interpretation of their ideals, and views through a harmonic/rhythmic medium we call music.

As a paradigm shift is slowing emerging in hip-hop from complete and utter b.s. to somewhat refined garbage.. i hope that we make it back to music.. at least on a consistent basis to the point that everyone can fall back in love with it again..
