a lot of people are turned off by new-era hip-hop, myself included. i don't wanna hear some dudes talking about how much money they have and how much their chain costs. i don't wanna see videos full of fake ass dudes driving rented ferraris and wearing fake rolexs and costume jewelry. that shit is terrible.
yeah i do like hip-hop. good hip-hop. old hip-hop. 80's and 90's hip-hop. when dudes told stories and talked about some real shit. true lyricists. true writers and producers. shit that you just sat around and smoked philly blunts to. yeah i said philly blunts. but for real, that era is basically dead in mainstream hip-hop. you got a lot of good underground cats still keeping it real, but when i was growing up you would hear rough ass shit like wu-tang on hot 97. it ain't like that anymore. hot 97 might as well be z100. it's terrible. and kids now have no idea how bad the music is that they listen to. i thank god that i grew up when i did.
but anyway, through my travels i had the pleasure of meeting my man max jerome who really holds it down and keeps shit real. i've been doing a lot of flyers/artwork for him and if you have a chance, go peep one of his events. you will not be disappointed. i've seen bars erupt into full-on dance parties with this dude on the wheels of steel.
here's a few upcoming events. artwork is mine. 1s & 2s are all max jerome.
