So it finally hit me this weekend and I’ve written something small about it to go up on SOHH Dirty on Monday. I was hit by the Hurricane and by that I mean Hurricane Chris and his latest single The Hand Clap. While I was out I had to hear this song at least 3 times and it caught my attention the very first time I heard it. The lyrics were just horrible, the song content was worse than horrible and I dont know if that was possible. The beat wasnt good and the song was just garbage and I dont normally like to be so negative about something. But are people really buying and listening to this? Is this what its really come down to, songs like this from Hurricane, Soulja Boy, D4L or whoever the latest flavor of the month is. As you read earlier on this site courtesy of the HoustonPress, the Ozone awards were even slipping and not giving much respect to real hip hop in the south.

It’s as though it’s all one big fake show now of posters and shamless promotion of trash. Rap without real content, consequences and nothing but fantasy. Non stop parties and songs made by fake drug dealers and fake thugs who got all their tats and gangsta after they had a hit. I just had to rant a little bit and it hit me when I heard the lyrics to The Hand Clap include “row, row, row your boat gently down the stream.” Yeah that’s a direct lyric quote from the song, what the fuck is this shit coming to!
