Review of Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap (2012) by Thehygienist — 29 Dec 2012

I was struck by the opening interview when one of the rappers said that rap evolved because "they took our instruments away", meaning that schools somehow conspired to take instruments away from students, so they could no longer perform jazz and blues.

At that starting point of victimization, it was downhill all the way, including the vast over-use of every curse in the book including the so-called "n" word, which is apparently not offensive at all to anyone in this film.

If you really want to see the origin of the decline of western civilization, study this "Something from Nothing" farce.
