No, you need to focus on the socio-political climate surrounding hip hop atm, not what some other genre did. I think in the very near future a very militant form of hip hop will take over. The climates right now are becoming more and more reminiscent of the 60's when political awareness was at an all time high. Plus more blacks are interested in politics in the US now that Obama's been elected.
thats true indeed. what i meant was how metal was dying and it went underground, but i came back up. anyway yeah i hope there will be more militant political hip hop and there probably will be. but idk how long it will last who knows. if think if that did happen though, and that kind of hip hop got popular labels will want to cash in on it, someone will have to cross over and hip hop will be back in the mainstream again.
