What you know about The Breakdown?

Saturday, October 17, 2009

I didn't know that I already knew about "The Breakdown" until I watched an old school episode of Soul Train earlier. Learned a new dance called The Breakdown. Listened to Rufus Thomas's "The Breakdown Chillin"... N.W.A. sampled this... yeah you already knew. I'm late because I don't dig in them crates, I'll leave that to the experts... However, thanks to technology my crates are virtually digital.  Look closely, you might catch me and my afro puff somewhere in this Soul Train episode. Peace, Love, and Soul y'all.

This is an interesting article about HOW to live a hip hop inspired lifestyle. I always thought being inspired was a natural thing sort of like my fat afro puff, and being in love. And those things in which we are inspired by we seek them out. Well, class sit down at your desk and allow yourselves to be instructed by an ehow.com contributor. Comments are welcome. I have no comment.

Nobody beats the Biz! This is the whole reason why The Greener Side of Hip Hop exists, The Biz Markie Talking Alarm Clock by Ecko. Yes, I still want one for Chistmas! Missed that boat seasons ago, however when this alarm clock was first introduce a few year back, I got the Vapors for hip hop all over again. This clock represents what I already knew about hip hop and the urban arena... don't let mainstream media mislead you. The birth rate of the "greener" side of hip hop had already quadrupled. Now you can find Biz Markie on the cable television network Noggin for children beat boxing and doing his thing on Yo Gabba Gabba!

WELCOME

Welcome to The Greener Side of Hip Hop. This blog is not what you think it is but, is everything I think it is. That's why I'm the author. Just know I'm a non-worshipping lover of hip hop (female, born and raised in the Bay Area) and green is such a positive and neutral color to me. This blog is just filtered down hip hop, no mc or dj, well maybe they'll sneak in from time to time... but HIP HOP is older, wiser, and it does not always practice lookin' hard! It's literature, it supports causes, it cares about you, it influences children positively, takes you to church, dresses you, educates you, changes lives and plays with your children. :-) If you have anything at all that you would like to contribute (gotta pass the green test) then please e-mail me at: mosdefaqueen@gmail.com.
