Maybe, just maybe, they're keeping it real: Hip hop fell the fukk off.
I was at a bbq with an older crowd ( I know) and we were dancing to shyt. This came on:
and this 50 year old sista was dancing/rhyming this shyt word for word. Having a ton of fun.
So we got to talk about hip hop. She thought the genre was trash now. I asked her when the genre fell off for her. And she said: around 2005.
If she really were and her opinion on hip hop should be ignored, she'd say some shyt like: "hip hop aint been shyt since the 1980s."
Why won't some of you see that hip hop, somewhere in the 2000s, became grooveless, mentally dull cac-friendly pop music? Heads and even non-heads who like to dance to hip hop dislike modern hip hop for very real and concrete reasons. And the 'age' argument is already getting played out, especially since it's clear that some cats are more up on the new shyt than the new kids.
