Drake was the last legit rap star and he came out over a decade ago

people forget how big rap use to be, it's at it's lowest point ever revenue wise, and influence on the culture

first generation where white rappers can imitate the music black rappers are doing, like jark harlow, and Post Malone too the mumble rappers shyt and went to the room with it

you live in a fantasy world, can't none of these new rappers sell out an arena, NONE OF THEM
Both Cole and Kendrick came after Drake and both or more pure rappers than him. He sings half the time.

I thought both Cole and Kendrick been active around the time of drake? shyt didn't Kendrick release his first project in like 04? I guess you mean stars post Drake. But then that still kinda goes with his point cause those cats still in his generation and era

hopefully after rap is officially done when these young mumbling ass nikkas completely ruin it, afrobeats takes over, i can rock with that

afrobeat amapiano and house gonna take over soon

To be honest, I'd prefer Afrobeats to stay in its current lane. The sound is already getting diluted as it's being pushed more and more into the mainstream. Once music goes mainstream it becomes less about the music and more about the image and product (at least these days).

Old man complaints. You've got 42 Dugg and Est rapping, on the bigger stage. If you're an old head and don't like that shyt...there are literally scores of artists for you to fukk with from Griselda to whatever else. Lots of shyt to listen to if you don't want to listen to Gunna or whoever else crooning.

Yeah this makes no sense. A lot of nikkas are rapping rn sht just not mainstream (outside a few). The irony of this is nikkas like Gibbs have zero memorable verses. I like gibbs but it's not true rap dying. Sht bigger than ever and everyone got more artists to enjoy. If nikkas want lyricists to come back, get better lyrically
