In case you were wondering what KRS-ONE stood for.
Yup yup, the hip hop mastermind behind hits such as 13 and good and Holding your D!ck like a throttle.
Anyhow, I had to fire this off in response to Pyggie's call to see PM Dawn and felt compelled to steal this from another site and share amongst my people.
Puttin da' hood in Robin Hood.
Start plagarism here ->
Expectations were high - KRS and other conscious rappers from the "Stop the Violence" movement that he helped start were talking about building a revolutionary black army around hip-hop.
KRS was never able to fulfill that overly ambitious goal. In 1992, as his popularity began to wane, PM Dawn front man Prince B questioned KRS's credibility as a hip hop teacher. BDP crashed the next PM Dawn show and proceeded to physically remove them from the stage while the crowd chanted "KRS-ONE! KRS-ONE!" Although this event garnered press and makes for an entertaining story, it left the greater hip-hop community confused about the state of hip-hop and the role of its leaders.
Was KRS really a revolutionary activist, or just a self-centered entertainer concerned about money?
<- End unoriginal bastardness
Beating up PM Dawn? That's a not a new low, that's a cry for help.
Who's next?
A napping Stephen Hawkings?
Or the corpse of Christopher Reeves?
