Woah how ill is Canibus?

Posted By: Aaron Lamb on March 02, 2005 Canibus' lyrics (as well as a number of other artists') are now being studied at college universities. Check it out: http://faculty.virginia.edu/jalexander/ "John Alexander is a middle-aged, middle-class, white Southerner, who, for almost thirty years has studied and been moved by the creative and powerful output of African-American writers and artists. He has specifically followed the explosion of Hip Hop music, dance and rap since its early days. His main interest has always been on underground Hip Hop, that more honest, gritty, incisive language of the street, where the audience is clearly the African-American community from which it springs. In this analysis, he tries to articulate his best understanding of the true message of that non-commercial, clear-eyed and honest commentary and why it is important for a larger audience to reflect on that message." http://faculty.virginia.edu/jalexander/pub...
