Believe it or not, it takes more than rhyming bars and catchy beats to make a hip-hop song hold any weight. While hip-hop has morphed into numerous variations over the course of time, one thing that remains true is that hip-hop is raw, unrefined emotion and often larger than life itself. Hip-hop can mean almost anything to the giver and the receiver; it can inspire, it can swagger, it can entertain, or it can do all of the above. Regardless of how you like your hip-hop served, it is important to note that in order to be the G.O.A.T. You must become a master of reinvention and artist John Blake has this down to a science.
