I've rarely thought about the common threads between freestyle and hip hop, but given how "Planet Rock" played a huge part in both genres' foundations, it makes sense.
When you really think about it, it's really interesting, and the fact that people swore that the PR beat was the necessary ingredient all along and therefore never swayed from it.
Awesome info Latif. Since I subscribed to the newsletter and facebook group, I have learned so much about freestyle. I totally understand about the one beat one blood article. Freestyle needed to evolve to the present generations, it's stuck in a bubble just waiting to get out, waiting for the right person to pop it. You have been a inspiration brother, keep up the awesome work.

That means a lot, thank you. Sometimes I write this stuff, not sure if people are getting it! Apparently you do and it is much appreciated Rafael.
Awesome article bro. Very informative, and interesting about the beats used in freestyle music. Keep up the great work.
