Just like Hip Hop We Don't Quit!!

So, today we received some not so great news from a TTL supporter....the news was that Bush and this recession got folks holding tight to their wallets like old women clinching their purses when young "hip hoppers" come around. Well, maybe that's no real news flash. We all know what the current state of the economy has us all (or most of us..besides...well u know) doing...pinching pennies. Those who want to invest are reluctant, because they too gotta watch their pockets. I dig that, but it's scary to think that worthwhile projects like ours, that aim to tell the truth about this beautiful culture, will get pushed to the side while music industry big wigs will still fill the pockets (or atleast hang chains around the necks) of pop culture rappers or shall I say puppets. But just like the music, we don't stop...we will keep pushing forward. Today's news is a minor setback if any, but not enough to keep us quiet (I wonder where we learned that?! Hip Hop has never and will never shut up). It is our mission to produce a message of greater possibilities for today's Hip Hop generation. These young kids can't believe that most of what they are seeing on these video shows is what Hip Hop is all about...be forreal...if our youth relied on this stuff to feed them they would starve. We can't let them starve. Help feed us so we can feed them. We won't stop... one closed door just means we have to take it back to the lab to regroup and plan our attack. We will do whatever it takes (well mostly...but we won't compromise the art...that's the problem with so much of this so called music that's out now). So, thanks to Hip Hop for teaching us another lifelong lesson...just like it, we don't quit. If you wanna learn of ways in which you can support this film and Hip Hop, follow the blog for updates and/or get at me at PositiveKK@aol.com. Peace and Progress!
