Most of what he criticizes "Crank That" for could equally apply to "Rapper's Delight."

Do you notice any similarities between ILMers getting worked up about people criticizing rap and right wingers getting hot and bothered over gay marriage? They're both equally predictable.

Don't worry guys, Sage Francis and Scroobius Pip are gonna make hip-hop relevant again.

The article is very boring and stupid and tl:dr. It's a shame it's a "talking point on the internet", because that probably makes it successful for the people who commission pieces on salon.com, and they'll likely want to put up more work in a similar vein. Sometimes I think the best thing to do w/such pieces would be to totally ignore them.

We are witnessing nothing less than the Macarena-zation of a genre
