I noticed in the Blog post of the top 100 DJ's (lets not argue over the methods or how shitty the list is please?) there are only 2 Hip Hop Dj's who barely made the cut and one of them is probably approaching 50 years old. I gave up on most of the Hip Hop that has come out in the last decade but I chalked that up to being old and doing the whole "You call this music? Back in my day..." type of thing. I still enjoy the occasional new Hip Hop group here and there and hear it's influence in alot of "Indie Bands" and other types of music but is the genre itself doomed?
As I think about my favorite Dj's They are all my age and up. Are they a dieing breed? Are there any new groups or MC's that you think are worthy of listening to? Are there any Dj's to carry on the torch of what I call the second generation of Dj's like Cut Chemist, Z-Trip, Mix Master Mike etc...?
