sameways we gotta accept that alot of the youth culture nowadays comes from the south through the net, music etc.. and NY youth like any other youth are gonna do what they do best, be influenced. NY aint that cultural powerhouse no more, the youngins accept that & are cool with it but older dudes dont want to accept it

Yeah, ATL is the center now, not surprising younger guys would be listening to more, regardless of region.
:mjlol:

U have to understand, living in NY requires a certain level of delusion in 2016

U can't blame him, he is shellshocked

ATL aint doing nothing. Then what is NYC doing? What is less than nothing?

And this is the most recent low point in NYC hip hop



Damn, Fab biting speaker knockers:scust:

You're 100% on point.

Brehs used to walk around the city bumping boom bap outta boom boxes. The culture is very different now and anyone who tries to make that style of music exactly the way the legends did are not being authentic either.

I don't know what direction new ny cats should go, but the trap shyt isn't it but trying to remake paid in full and Illmatic isn't the answer either.
How be about be your fukking self? Expand on the established, diverse NY sound. It's not rocket science. NYC is just lacking real talent.

So much garbage opinions in this thread

Why would we have another wu tang? Why would you expect these 19-26 year olds coming out of NY to make 00s and 90s sounding NY shyt? prior to Rocky and Nicki NY was dead after G unit and the Dips fell off and had no current NY rapper to influence em. People make the music their influenced by and ATL and chief Keef influenced most these new dudes coming out

Dudes don't wanna hear current NY rappers try and use Southern music influence to try and build on and create a new sound for NY, they just wanna hear 90s and 00s rehashed NY shyt. What is current NY hip hop "supposed to sound like? Fab? These dudes are gonna make southern influenced hip hop regardless of what some has been or dusty NYer thinks so why not just encourage them to use that influence to develop a new sound for NY that the youth can get behind?

Guru was from Mass and moved to NY and premo was from Texas but no old heads seem to mind that

No one cared when The Pharcyde came out sounding like they were from NY

..but now that the souths influence took over and the direction of influence has changed ..it's a big deal
