Hip-Hop,
I Have Something To Say
Words: Elle Capone
It's
me again. I know we haven't spoken in
a while, forgive me for drifting to Pop
and Light Rock while you were on vacation
in 2007; I never stopped lovingyou. I've
been thinking and you know...it's never
toolate for a new New Year's resolution
so I'm hopingthat this year we can make
ours together.
I, Elle Capone, so solemnly swear to buy
my albums straight from the record store,
and even buy a back up if it scratches.....If
YOU, Hip-Hop, do solemnly swear to get
back to your roots and breathe conscience
life back into your every bar.
I promise to continue to defend you through
my columns, music, and every platform
given unto me when you are wrongly used
as a scapegoat for the actions of a few
dumb humans. In return I ask that you
stop calling me out my name, and stop
giving my Sisters free one-way tickets
to Exploit-Me-Land.
May we push one another to the top in
2008, and keep the movement alive well
into the next 20 some years....
With My Whole Heart......
