During my days as a teen a became engulfed in the underground culture. I adopted a more radical stance on the issue. In my mind, the underground was the last line of defense against the tentacles of the corporate world…and anyone who was affiliated with them (mtv,bet, snoop, jay z) was considered a yoyo/flip flopper. Now the way I went by choosing who I listened to music wise was based solely on my view of them being firly against the yoyo’s….hence, not associating with them in any way (highly disappointed with gang starr on their final album for having snoop on it). So, in your opinion, when does an underground hip hop
artist cross the line
