I definitely follow #hiphophubski (it's how I found this post!) I look forward to a "What to look for in hiphop" post". As a classical musician, I think that so much can be gained by applying that kind of an eye - an analytical one, classical music has been analysed to death - to all forms of music, especially ones which hold as much significance to a cultural group as rap does. It's just another kind of musicology, fuck that "ethno" label.
