Hip Hop is Geeky

Between the high tech gadgets and toys (studio equipment) and nuanced formulas and alchemy (beatmaking), hip hop production is creatively scientific and scientifically creative...just like any other fine artform.

I've always had a love for expression and pushing buttons (ladies ;). Jk, but for real I think most musicians at some point in their lives had a natural aptitude for math and/or the sciences.

Also most tech geeks are heavy into hip hop and electronica. I can dig it, being a former "mathlete" who still works through trig problems from time to time (gotta help my lil sis w her homework, tu sabes). There's something really beautiful about math and music and harmony and those who get it, get it.

So for all you geeky hip hop kids, this post is for you. Now go gaze at some fractal art, puff a tree, and throw on some trip hop.

Peace and love,
