Entertainment in Hip Hop: To Be or Not To Be?

The point of it all is to be as great of an emcee as possible. Your job is to liven up the party and keep it going. You are to engage the crowd into the content of your lyrics and the way you deliver your words. But has the emcee died in hip hop today? Do we know longer care about someone being able to fully be the master of ceremony at the party holding the mic and making you hold onto the edge of your seat for every word?

There are some artists today who are still emcees. They still carry the craft and heart of a true emcee, giving their all to the crowd and realizing it's their job while holding the mic to rake care of the individuals listening to them. Bot only just for that night but for the rest of their life as well, by instilling brief cultural, spiritual, and political wisdom. However we are in an age where we just want to be entertained.

Entertainment doesn't come with any set guidelines. It's simply a matter of doing whatever it takes to get the desired reaction from the crowd. It sounds harmless in definition, but today their is truly no care in the presentation anymore. However I believe that all entertainment is not bad. Sometimes you need that comical relief to make things better. But sometimes it's just not funny.
