Deltron 3030 - 3030 and Madness, these songs along with album came out 11 years ago and are still probably some of the most advanced hip-hop songs i have heard in terms of speaking of the future and a actual musical texture unlike any hip-hop album ive ever heard. the purpose of this album was to speak the future of hip-hop and how its going to end up exactly what it is today, self centered meaningless garbage.

del the funky homosapien (Deltron Z) is also one of the most logical lyricist ive ever known on this planet period, he is not afraid to admit the faults within humanity or within himself. for instance in the song Madness by Deltron 3030, he writes about being caught in the stupidity of everyday existence, how it effects and changes everyone and not for the better.

quotes from Madness, "why should i hate you, you may act different in someways but we all still group together like a fucking survey, sufferin and fuck em all's the motto. im trapped in a bottle, my musics gettin hollow. that's what happens when humanity you follow, when every leak or info is hard to swallow.

"But music is there with out you or me we just manipulate
For better or worse so let it situate"

another quote ill never forget, also from madness. "people love to take pride in what they have no hand in, sorta like a phantom holographic handsome but deep inside he wants to do what his man done.

such dead on quotes, i dont know how many people who will defend lil wayne till they die but have never touched an instrument in their life to have any say so about music period let alone know what good music can be.

being truly humble i think is something almost all these over hyped musicians now a days really lack..

simply because he is a excellent musician and all around lyricist ill never forget that album, personally i rarely find myself listening to hip-hop as its probably one of the most tainted forms of music now honestly i never do.

its funny because hip-hop is always copying people or todays generation "of" i should say, for example 10 years ago i said they would start using electronic music because hip-hip would start to die out simply because the platform they are using today, im rich, i have girls, i shop all day, im so bad ass and i smoke bud all day.. all that stupid shit has gotten really old so lets freshen it up by throwing a techno beat on every hip-hop track now because electronic music is whats popular, people still buy the crap though thats the sad part..

point being anyone who despises hip-hop or just thinks its all the same really needs to listen to the album Deltron 3030, i cant stress enough how easily it will change your perception of hip-hop, as minimal as it might be there are still some good ones out there.
