Pee Wee Kirkland is a street legend from New York City who was known for being one of the best ball players to ever step foot on the courts, but he was also a high powered drug dealer who was rumored to be making so much money that he turned down an offer to go to the NBA.. He was recently interviewed where he had some choice words about Hip Hop.. do you agree with his assesment? Is he spitting the truth, rough, rugged and raw?

The man is mostly on point except he should be saying the rap game instead of hip-hop. He needs to check the Zulu Nation. Hip-hop is a response to all the conditions he's talking about, not the cause. Hip-Hop is underground, it's hard to find on tv or radio, same as it's always been.

Word I agree. When most people think hip hop, they think "mainstream corporate rap music".
