Personally I think shooting from the hip is a really interesting form of photography that I often prefer over more conventional ones. Not only does it give a different perspective, but I find the shots to often be much more natural and in a way more 'authentic'. Traditional shooting methods are by their very nature highly constructed. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I definitely think that shooting from the hip or other similar styles are very valid.
I guess it depends on your definition of photography or what photography means to you. Whether it is something that you construct as much as possible and aim for 'perfection' in achieving what you imagine the result to be in your head.
Or whether you try and capture a moment from the world around you just as it is and let that speak for itself.
I can see the value in both.
