What's happened to the full CD??

What the hell is going on with Hip Hop nowadays, will someone tell me? You can't buy a fukkin CD nowadays and listen to the whole thing through anymore. Heads are really losing their creativity and I'm looking for some clarity here. I don't know about you but my favorite pastime used to be rollin' up a fatty, crackin' a new CD open in my ride and floatin off , while I critiqued my new buy. Usually by track 6, my blizz is a roach, I'm feeling nice and I'm rockin hard to my choice of MC or MC's. Not anymore though, it seems that those days are gone. Now my tokes are constantly interrupted by my frequent use of the next track button. By track 6, I'm now pissed I paid full price at the store and not a hot $5.00 for this crap CD from the bootleg spot on the corner or the Vietnamese market. On top of that, my buzz is virtually non existent (anger at times, tends to take something away from the chronic for me)! Not to worry though, the next blizz fortunately will usually get you over the anger until the next time that you look at that CD cover minus the red eyes.
It's really sad because I hear this phenomenon is not only affecting Hip Hop, but affecting $hit in other music genres as well. Now i don't know how true this is since I DO NOT listen to Country Western, Pop, Alternative or any of that speed Metal bull$hit. I do however know heads that do listen to that crap and they assure me that the same $hit is going on. If you ask me you should be able to get your money back when you buy a bad CD, or they should at least allow you the opportunity to kick an artist's ass for putting out crap. Hey I'd step into the octagon with 50 cent and put a $20.00 dollar ass whoopin on him for wasting my time, money and chronic on his new album, which is pure trash!!! Now for those of you who don't live in the hood, let me tell you $20.00 goes along way. That $20 will get you 2 slices, a cold 40 oz., 2 dutchies and a dimebag. Folk have been killed for less.....An artist might come up missing!!!

What up Topcat good to see the parkbench, still lives. Good topic,so many times over at least the last 6 to 7 years this has been a problem, and it seems to be getting worse, there should, be a way for fans, to trash the album after, having big hopes and then getting let down, like we always do but thats the society, we live in these days no creativity and any fly by night shit is accepted. Kepp up the good work Topcat exposing the real truths in HIP-HOP.................
