Kanye Weighs In On Ice-T vs Souljaboy!




Everyone has an opinion on this beef! Kanye had this to say:
"Soulja boy is fresh as hell and is actually the true meaning of what hip hop is 'sposed to be. He came from the hood, made his own beats, made up a new saying, new sound and a new dance with one song. He had all of America rapping this summer. If that ain't Hip Hop then what is? A bunch of wannabe keep it real rappers that ain't even relevant, recycling samples trying to act like it's 96 again and all they do is hate on new sh*t? N*ggas always talk about the golden age but for a 13 year old kid, this is the golden age!!! That song was so dope cause everything he said had a hidden meaning... that's Nas level shit... he just put it over some steel drums which is also some Nas shit if you had the 2nd album cassette with the bonus track "Silent Murder" on it. In closing... new n*ggas get ya money$$$$$$$$$$ Keep this sh*t fresh and original.... ain't no f*ckin' rules to this sh*t and that's what real hip hop is to me."
I must say I agree! I come from the "old school era" of hip-hop and I agree that in order for the art form to thrive, it must evolve! Keep it fresh y'all!

Wait! Was he going off on Nas or complimenting him? I'm lost because Nas has been around since '96, maybe even before.

He was mos def complimenting him! Hidden meanings are good things! Double entendre!
