First of all, who decides the line between hiphop and "triphop"? Who can
actually define "triphop" (probably no one)? so this makes this argument,
as to how they relate and/or which one is better, pretty foolish...
Secondly, the Source has turned wack...they don't even have a solid feel
for the good hiphop coming out today....
