People Get Caught Up In

There's A Lot Of People Over Time Who Have Brought Out All These Funky Records That Everybody Has Started Jumping On Like A Catch Phrase... When Planet Rock Came Out, Then You Had All Of The Electro Funk Records.

If You See Something Is Going Wrong Within Politics And The World Today, Then Some Hip Hop Artist Is Gonna Come Along And Get Straight With It. If They Think That There's A Lot Of Racism Going On Then There's Another Hip Hop Artist Who's Gonna Come Out And Speak Their Mind.

Record Industry's Not So Much Against Artists, But Certain People Are Just Wicked People That Sit Up In The Industry Who Go Against The Artist. The Thing Is, If You're In The Recording Business, Where's Our Health Benefits? Where's The Royalties From When You Put Stuff On Labels In Different Countries? And Now, With All These 500 Cable Channels, You Want Your Mechanical Royalties, Your Licensing. There's So Much Technology That You've Got To Stay On Top. They Always Try To Tell You, "oh, Don't Worry About The Business Side, Just Do The Music."

I'd Like To See People Pay Attention To The Science Of Hip Hop. The Knowledge Part, The Political Side Of What Hip Hop Could Do, Or Where Hip Hop Is Gonna Go. I Always Say It's Gonna Become Universal As We Become A Galactic Union.

Hip-hop Has Different Elements Dealing With Music, Rap, Graffiti Art, B-boys (what You Call Break Boys)... And Also Dealing With Culture, And A Whole Movement Dealing With Wisdom And Understanding, As Well As Peace Unity And Fun.
