Beating the HipHop Cliché is what you will automatically want to do today if you love the music but still have a brain. Since you did not happen to get up as an underpriviledged black male in the Bronx of the 80ies or a turkish one in Berlin Neukölln, you cannot follow the tough talk.
(Unless it is self concious and female as in this non HipHop form)
Some have tried to beat Hip Hop on its own ground - with parodies, satire, all forms you can imagine.
Let's call it HipHop-Enlargement
Muschiflo's "Ficken Geld Drogen Nutten" - obviously shot in Berlin's Görlitzer Park - simply carries machismo way over the borders. Do you know all the real rappers mentioned?
Same idea with Xberg Dhirty6 Cru - convincingly simple
A little more on the subtle side are
-the 2.0-famous "Icke & Er" on the fuck all mentality.
-Adolf Noise (aka DJ Koze) with Max Goldt and "Deine Reime sind Schweine"
This one works perfectly not only because of its lyrics but the awesome beats its coming along with.
Same as KIZ, (Sexismus gegen Rechts) who are the best in "not even being a persiflage anymore".
In the end though, it is most convincing, if a woman beats Cock-Rap with its own weapons. Without arrogance, but just very souvereign performance - so did Sarah Jones in a Gil-Scott Heron "Remix"
as a stand-up
or
with DJ Vadim (one of serveral versions)
again: do you recognize all the rappers mentioned?
