Dubstep crossing over into Hip Hop?

What's the dealage? It seems that Chase and Status have been keeping busy making huge crossover moves lately. I was blown away when I heard the two tracks they produced for Rhianna last year. Then while checking out Hipsteroverkill (if anyone knows how to embed links into text, please let me know) I find Nicki Manaj throwing jabs on Chase and Status' "Saxon".

This track apparently dropped last fall. Nonetheless, it still makes me wonder about the future of dubstep as it continues to become exposed to the masses.

Shouts out to Emalkay for speaking on how dubstep is continuing to "explode in popularity" here in the state.

lol too bad, I used to like Saxon

Can't say I would mind giving Ms. Minaj a pearl necklace though...

I would rather just hear the tune without the lame vocals over the top.

yeah that was a legitimate big tune at one point... with the vocals it's just one more piece of pop novelty trash.

I think it did cross over quite some time ago, just saying. Chimpo's been doing this shit for time. http://www.myspace.com/feedthechimp

Big fan of Hip Hop, Dubstep , Glitch Hop - all very content bedfellows indeed.

It still makes me wonder about the future of dubstep as it continues to become exposed to the masses.

apparently everyone has slept on the tune 6Blocc did with Myka9

1 Nikki Minaj is only good for one thing and we all know what that is....

2 Hellfire u got to it before i could. first solid crossover of real hiphop and real dubstep. Large

3 WTF i havent heard any Myka9 shit in a while. Nice fucking tune Tacos.

4 Plastician thats whats up.

5 Slugabed

To me it only makes sense. Ive been a hiphop cat since i was a kid and dubstep is the first electronic music that i truely vibed with rhythmically. Throw in extra heavy bass and fuckin im hooked. I cant see your average american emcees embracing dubstep but there will surely be cats that come up. My boy Elijah Divine spits killa over dnb and dubstep up in New England. Ghetto beats and heavy bass sound good with an emcee that can handle they business.

does anyone else agree that the sample in Saxon most definately comes from Metallica - Wherever I May Roam
