nikkas expect 40 and 50 year olds to be bumping some teenager's music in their whip.
You gotta keep up with the culture
Around what year did you stop listening to "New" rap regularly?

really just in the last year, the last "new rappers"/projects from "new rappers" i enjoyed was carti's mixtape (his album was just aight), that future and juicewlrd project, uzi's album, smino, cozz and JID...so i guess up until 2018...
i'll always find new tracks i fukk with from new dudes, but as far as actually being a fan or checking for entire projects, last year was the first year it felt "different" for me, like i couldn't find any new rappers i'd be an actual fan of

What makes artist now so simple minded?Y'all really expect for us to go from the greats like Nas, Pun, DMX etc, with some excellent production, and be happy with this simpleminded shyt we currently got?
Nas,DMX and pun ain’t say anything other than the most basic shyt

2012 is about when rap died.

Getting tired of this trap soul, fully quantized trap sound with the same hihat patterns and 808 basslines

YBN, Tay K, NBA Young Boy, Rae Sremmurd are decent. Dudes like Lil pump are pure trash
Blac Youngsta got some good beats, but he ain't that good eitherThis came out 8 months ago, I'm kinda behind. I usually go through Spotify
1) The e thugging is unnecessary. U would never EVER in your life start a convo in real life with me like that. I didnt disrespect you so the up front disrespect was totally unwarranted..check yourself.
2) This is an old discussion... Most people whatever age aren't really into music like the fanatics. Most people aren't crate diggers like the fanatics. Most people dont go into the science of music like the fanatics. So you are refering to the average person...You not refering to a real hip hop head at all. Real hip hop heads have 38 Spesh, Rapsody, Stro, Cyhi The Prince, Pro Era, Don Q, Griselda, Mozzy, Nick Grant, Logic, Sky Anikan and Concept Jackson, Villian Park, Young MA, Underacheivers, Roc Marciano, Keen Streetz, J Cole, Dee savv , Danny Brown Envy caine, Sa roc, Meek Mills, Nipsey Hussle, Saigon Selma Slim, Royce Da 5'9, C Struggs....And I can go on and on. So if an old head isn't getting the Hip Hop he wants, its because he's not digging. We not in the 80's 90's, 2000's era no more were radio, MTV and BET gave us our hip hop on a mainstream level. There's too much music now and technology has changed the guards. Its on those old heads to either keep up or get left behind. I'm not complaining because I keep up.
Also....there is no way a 40 to 50 year old can avoid listening to whats current because they might have kids...and those kids will play the current shyt around them. They might not get fully into but if they have kids, they gonna have a foundation. When the BBQ breaks out they play old and new..Thats the tradition. I went to my lil cousins birthday party...She had Drakes Scorpion playing. The elders were bopping their heads to "Keke...do u love me."
How old are you?

You missed my point, what I'm saying is that it's not so much about being "lyrical miracle" with nothing else going on in the song.
It's about having a balance (without lacking one) of everything which the East Coast perfected especially in the 90s from a lyric, production & hook standpoint like nothing was mediocre on one side (lyrics) compared to the other (production/hooks) everything had to be on point.
They only perfected things to fans that endear themselves to that era of musicYou missed my point, what I'm saying is that it's not so much about being "lyrical miracle" with nothing else going in the song.

Everything was balanced.

just cause shyt is simple doesn't mean it can't be good. that's a cop out. 21's "A lot" is a case of that.
