Aesop Rock astutely diagnoses the Freudization of hip hop, now in it’s 15th 35th year of existential crisis:

Pick up any rap magazine, and half the magazine is articles about hip-hop, and it’s just about the actual existence of a genre called hip-hop, or what the genre is doing, and it’s like, “Man, just make a record. There wouldn’t be shit to complain about if you just made music.”

Ironically, it is this bit of anti-psychoanalysis hip hop psychoanalysis that is the most compelling section of the entire interview.
