      I think art becomes timeless when the ultimate goal is to truly make people see and feel your passion. It's a sincere conversation. The business that supports such art is driven by people who understand your vision and market/sell it to reflect that vision, trusting the art will do the rest.

The transition from one song to the next, the segue in between, Tip & Phife taking turns, the switching from black & white to color, the bugged out eyes, the acapella cypher at the end. This song & video was & still it so representative of this Hip-Hop culture that we all know and love. R.I.P. Phife Dawg and long live Hip-Hop

      I started with Midnight Marauders; my big sister brought it home from college and the minute I heard it I was mesmerized. I started playing the piano at a very young age, and was kind of a classical music nerd; it was actually the very first non-classical CD I ever owned. I worked my way backwards from there, then back forward with Beats, Rhymes and Life, and the Love Movement. I know a lot of people were quick to dismiss anything after Midnight Marauders; BR &L it's probably my least favorite, but the Love Movement is one of my favorites.

Shout out to our late phife Dawg!

      @y would u even sub ? A hook and a chorus are basically the *exact same* thing. Here's the official definition:
      A hook is a musical idea, often a short riff, passage, or phrase, that is used in popular music to make a song appealing and to "catch the ear of the listener". The term generally applies to popular music, especially rock, R&B, hip hop, dance, and pop. In these genres, the hook is often found in, or consists of, the *chorus.* A hook can be either melodic or rhythmic, and often incorporates the main motif for a piece of music.
