Hip Hop Needs To Die Today

Hip Hop Needs To Die Today
Hip hop is dying and the influence of 2pac on the urban
music business will be the name of this cancer that is
killing it slowly. This stronghold was first strengthened
by the glory and fame that 2pac had received from his
gangster tales of life as a thug from his music, plus this
thug persona in his real life. Which helps every real life
non rapping thug idolize and identify with some one from
the hood that is loved and respected, but really this trend
started to become a problem way before 2pac started
rapping. As this started with N.W.A where their tales of
drug dealing gangs and murder gave a voice to real thugs
every where.

But it gets serious here as the popularity grew for N.W.A
and they went on to sell lots of records and gain lots of
respect and when you grow up in the hood or basically any
where that is considered poor, respect is the most
important thing because even if you still don't have money
you can still have respect and my point is if you dont know
how to earn respect in life or music, alot of people just
copies the person with the most respect and do what they
did to earn the respect they got.

They say that imitation is the greatest form of flattery
but in reality it can be the easiest way to make a dollar,
but only to a certain point as you seen people loved 2pac
for all his tattoos and now you see every up and coming
rapper with tattoos, even LIL Wayne has tattoos on his
face, so lets all copy that cause 2pac was the greatest and
we all want to be the greatest right? Plus he smoked weed
all day, so imma smoke weed all day, he was starting music
industry conflicts or beefs, and so im gonna start music
industry beefs but, the down side to this is that when
Tupac was alive there was only one Tupac.

So that made him interesting and respected and loved by the
real rap fans, but now you have at least 85% of the rappers
that are rapping to some sort of degree affected by this
negative 2pac influence on there music plus at the same
time the music they are recording is mostly bull crap, but
trip this, even Jay-Z as of this last year, had to go back
and do a drug dealing record because he knows that he has
lost the respect that he probably never even had, in an
attempt to gain the respect that Tupac had and probably
still has.

Now the effect that the thug/ drug dealer/ murderer image
has on hip hop in regards to sales for the simple fact that
in this day and age the actual people that are buying
records in america and over seas are not gang members, they
are actual hard working people as this style of music is
just merely a form of entertainment where the
thugs/gangbangers in real life are only 1 percent of the
united states population and a majority of these thugs do
not buy CDs from out of the stores any way, so why do
rappers and record companies produce these types of records
still to this day, after countless amounts of artist
continue to see a fall in sales.

Hip Hop needs to die and when i say that, I mean this
current state of hip hop will not make it into the next
decade and i'm talking about the tupac influence on hip
hop, where the fans are ready for something new and real
and something they can relate to because for every rapper
to have had killed somebody, been shot, sold drugs, and
have smoked and/or drunken drugs is stupid and needs to be
laid to rest, before it affects any one else.

But in 2007 we have seen the desire for change first hand
with the CD sale competition between 50 cent and Kanye
West, where Kanye Wests clean cut image out sold 50 cents
gangster watered down 2pac image, that we do want a change
and if our uncle hip hop cannot get well and fully recover
from the Tupac infection that has spread through out 85%
percent of his body. Then we need to pull the plug, let him
die peacefully, and make way for the next generation of hip
hop.

Webkinz Charms Still On Top

Webkinz Charms Still On Top
When Ganz released Webkinz Charms I remember I was at the
computer, and it seemed like the world of Webkinz was
overtaken by them. My immediate thought was, "what are
Webkinz Charms?" Then I realized that every kid in America
and beyond knew something I didn't. Webkinz Charms are a
captivating add on to the Game and toy Webkinz. These toys
open a magical forest in the game by completing tasks.

In the beginning Ganz released 24 webkinz charms and with
the explosive popularity be sure that more will be on the
rise. It's not often a toy comes along and improves or adds
value to an already existing popular one. However, that
being said, Webkinz Charms did just that and in record
time. When certain tasks are completed in the game you get
special prizes that you can only access if you have a
Webkinz Charm. This has added a very exciting element to
the game and activates new challenges. New challenges keep
the game from becoming boring. Some games have become stale
overtime, but it looks like Ganz has obviously found a
different way to keep kids on the edge of their seats.

One of the main reasons for Webkinz Charms success is that
they are rather inexpensive. In fact, most of them are from
2-5 dollars. In a world filled with really expensive toys
this is a big relief and bodes easy on the wallet. High
tech toys are declining slightly on account of the
increased sales of lower priced but yet, fun toys like
Webkinz. In the future more toys may be priced even lower
and offer small Addons much like Ganz did with Webkinz.
With the popularity of Webkinz itself it would do Ganz well
to increase the line of Webkinz Charms from 24 to 48 or
more. Just as I mention this, be sure you'll see this
increase soon.

Ganz recently released a new action figure series modeled
after the popular webkinz plush toys. However, even though
the new webkinz action figures came out, webkinz charms
still out sold them. Michael brown of Bid or Buy Toys had
this to say, " Webkinz Charms still out sold Webkinz Action
Figures 3 to 1 during January and February. That's rare for
a toy that's been around for awhile in the same genre to
crush a new item in the series." When a toy does that it
starts to make you wonder how high it will climb before the
potential decline comes. Maybe the decline will never come.
