As a kid growing up listening to Hip Hop at a time where every song wasn't as radio friendly with its melodies and r&b overtones, I've heard many critize Hip Hop.  Whether good or bad, one thing that is certain is that everyone has their own opininons.  The problem is that often times, these opinions are biased and based on a few key points rather than the bigger picture.  The question remains, what is HIP HOP?....I'm one that always thought that if you needed to know what Hip Hop is you needed to listen to this song which I deem the number #1 song in Hip Hop ever!

First and foremost, allow me to introduce myself, my name is Andy Maxis.  This blog will be about what else but the controversial style of music that has still captivated millions.  The good, the bad and the ugly have all been portrayed in this genre.  The good, the bad and the ugly will be discussed here.  From fashion, to tattoos, to its social commentary, this blog is about HIP HOP...at least as I see it.
