Yeah man honestly teen agers and 20 year olds aren't fukkin wit Joey Badass and shyt like that around here up north..not where I live. If I went to a party and tried throwing on Troy Ave or some newer NY sounding hip hop I'd probably get laughed at and that shyt would probably get turned off and be replaced by some trap sounding shyt. I was hanging out in the hood last year wit some Latin Kings and they bumped Gucci the whole time.
I put Kevin Gates on at a party and people were fukking wit it heavy and asking me who it was lol
My age group (mid 20 year olds) and younger are listening to trap & drill. We were listening to southern music in our teens. We were being exposed to that. It wasn't just G Unit & Dipset.
From what I experienced hanging out in the hood up here a bit and around some street dudes ..no ones really listening to shyt but trap, drill, meek and some Drake. That's what the hood & streets are fukking with up here. Not TDE, ASAP, Pro Era, Chance or any of the rappers people classify as "hipster" on here. I doubt new 50 is even getting play in the hood like that around here cause he's not new and "played out".
Basically....the thing is its less regional...thats not just NY, everywhere u go they're listening to the same exact shyt
