Finding The GOAT: The Golden Age of Hip-Hop (1978 - Present) (2 of 4)
- 8 years ago
Who is the greatest MC of all-time? http://bit.ly/1EkKFe1
“Can it be that it was all so simple then?” The nostalgia effect is a strong one in Hip-Hop, and causes us not only to look back with optimistic revision, but also, at times, prevents us from embracing the greatness of late. It is not uncommon to hear someone argue that “there are no classic albums in the last 10 years.” While classics take time to reveal themselves, greatness requires no delay to be acknowledged. But, is it possible for an artist who’s been on the scene for five years or less to be considered the greatest of all-time?
Part 2 of our Finding The GOAT documentary explores the rose-colored glasses through which we look at the past, and why "the good old days" never left.
