Could a top NYC rapper bring that old NYC/East Coast sound back like Kendrick did or are niccas too gone riverdancing to UK/90's sample drill beats?

[itsyoung!!]

What do u mean here?

What makes LA and the Bay any more self sufficient than us

Cash Cobain is much more popping than any of them artist on Kendrick’s album

I hate when NY posters be on this self deprecating shyt and dikk sucking other regions

We have our own shyt as much as anyone.

Cash cobain is not more poppin than SZA or roddy ricch

if a new young NYC rapper came along that revitalized expectations for spitting bars at an exceptional gifted level, and brought a modern jersey club/drill inflected re-vamp of rugged boombap/gritty beats with hard ass drums but fast, then yeah they absolutely could.

None of the newer NYC rappers are good enough, none are aspiring for greatness.

Close the thread. All this talk about party music and all that shyt yeah that's cool but that ain't been NY since Sugar Hill. No one can actually spit any bars and it shows. Pop might have been the last one and his bars wasn't even that tight.

May he rest in peace.

But the era of young spitters ended with Dave , Don, MA and Boogie. They should have formed a team or something.

NYC had it in that era with Dave East, Don Q, A Boogie, Young MA. ASAP, Joey Badass etc but the labels didn't back them properly

Always the labels lol

It would have been Pop Smoke

Kendrick sampled a latin singer from brooklyns song for squabble up and somehow it’s considered west coast because some people did gang dances to it

She’s actually Jewish not Latin

 

[Roid Jones]

Who's gonna do that? Ice Spice?

Imagine the career arch if she did

 

[Roid Jones]

She’s actually Jewish not Latin

Still a heretic

 

[Illuminatos]

And yall are going to clown them and say they’re stuck in the past.

Be for real, Cash Cobain does not count. We talking about rappers rappers.

NYC has a lot of them but they don't get pushed as much because shytty ass drill rappers has taken over.

Who in NYC of this current generation can really spit bars? Please give me some recs. Not singing ass nikkas. Not off beat one line ass nikkas. Real rappers. Please.

wait till u find out sza is from new jersey

roddy ricch is extremely ice cold and hasnt been a factor since the pandemic era, cash cobain is definitely more popping than roddy idek how thats a debate, that isnt to say roddy isnt the more recognizable artist overall, I think roddy's 2020 will always keep him at a certain level where he can at least get booked for shows but he's not moving the needle with new music, similar to fetty wap after 2016

also yall keep mentioning how pop coulda been the one while simultaneously shytting on drill.. yall know he was a drill rapper who rapped over what yall swear was "london" beats right?

The next stage of his career would have been epic once he grew and ditched drill, true NY sound back

NYC needs to let go of the BoomBap shyt.

New York does not have an identity right now.

The underground will bring a new sound. Just gonna take a while to evolve and push through the weeds because the internet and cacs with cell phones ruin everything.

The one tried and true method is to create a club anthem. Clubs are dead...so it's probably a wrap for a while.
