Talib Kweli – State of Grace
It depicts a young lady’s struggle with her love for Hip Hop music, and convey’s her trails and tribulations with the sound of the music she has a love and hate relationship with.
Check out some of the lyrics here:
“She grew up loving hip hop
Now all her daughter got is “Love & Hip Hop”
Nowadays niggas turn up for the sex
Niggas turn up for the money, never turn up for the movement
Ratchet reality stars that be looking so stupid
Getting in the fights at reunions
She used to be inspired by the writers, now she’s tired of the biters”
