having just read through all that stuff you posted (much to my chagrin, and purely so i could make this answer) toop talks primarily himself, the music and facts are secondary; what the hell does an english person living in the UK have in terms of first hand knowledge of hiphop in the early 80s anyway? a bit of record shopping and a couple of gigs? fuck off! and secondly he presents me with nothing i didn't know about hiphop already, there's no genuine insight. much like his live music, it's the work of someone arrogant enough to believe that whatever they spew forth is worth people's time and money.
