The power of music is impressive, especially the red-headed stepchild that is known as Hip Hop. Slandered oft but admired incessantly by millions. On a daily basis, we are bombarded by an abundance of messages that glorify misogyny, violence and hyper sexuality, so much so that we tend to forget how powerful & beautiful Hip Hop really is and the potential it has as a genre. This energy that I speak of above is every so often encapsulated in the form of a gifted emcee. His name is Jay Electronica. I found out about him reading Just Blaze's Blog. Just dropped a track Jay Electronica had where he was rhyming with no drums. I was speechless. I hadn't heard anything like it before. Check it out below.
PS:For those of you who think there's no such thing as Down South Hip Hop, Jay Elec is from the N.O.
