Hip Hop Really Deserves to Die At This Point

That's little bro.
We're from two different generations and he sees it too. The thing is, I can't fault too many of the other younger dudes because they don’t know any better. This is all they know. A first grader today is probably not gonna be a Slick Rick and PE fan like I was, lol. So they don’t have the same standard. Problem is, they don’t want to go back and dig through the old classics either. Ageism is what's killed that for them now. We didn't have a problem with going back to find older music to learn more about it and discover. Today, they don’t even want to bother with anything other than what's going on right now. You see it on here, we're talking Hip Hop, and how many times did we see dudes bringing up age? You didn't see that happening back in the day. It's just a new way to divide the people up. And it's clearly working. Because like Questlove said, the minute you try to put someone younger on to something, the new comeback is to call you "old". That's "Hip Hop" today.
But you're right, it's not about living in the past, at all. It has everything to do with not lower your standard and expectations for something you used to see operating at a very high level. This whole sh*t is really on life support right now. I was in the barbershop yesterday. We're all doing our usual sh*t talking. The new Nas joint came up. Kid was in there saying Nas was "boring and for the old people". Dude was 25!! Not 6 years old, lol. We threw names at him. Nas, Jay, Pac, B.I.G., on and on. He said these are "old school rappers" and they're not for him. So today, they write off actual legends and refuse to go back and listen to them. Because they feel that's not from "their time". So they have mad classics and artists they won't expose themselves to because it's not current. And then we wonder why they don’t have a clue about how trash things are today. We can't get mad at them, but ignorance is what they operate under now.
I think mostly everything new is heinous.

Folks will never move on, elevate the game, or focus on fixing the issues. Yet, will clutch pearls and bytch when the machine (AI) does what humans failed to do.
Quite frankly, its long overdue as hip hop had the industry by the balls, but got high off of its own supply. I said this ages ago and the prophet marsupial spoke the gospel:
Said this in 2017, and now heads are seeing the crackheaded corpse of what Common was rapping about.

Not a fan, but agreed on this statement. You know, in a way hip hop truly symbolize Scarface to a tee. Tony went from humble beginnings, doing dirt to get on top, becoming a goddamn savage, and then getting high off of his supply leading to his downfall.
The game pretty much embodies the exact time-frame of the movie. Sadly, we are at this part of the movie..

It's become a truly demonic culture...was on its last legs in the 2000s and officially RIP 2012-13 ish

Aight, I read it , I agree . I feel like There are too many outsiders in it...and fans backing up and stanning the KING outsider...
I figured that they would get bored n move on to another Genre eventually...but WE are the coolest and most influential...THEY ain't got shyt without us so they in Hip-hop...and their cornyness and corny ways come with it...
Idk. Shyt...maybe "pop rap" will take off, then execs will start pushing that...then we could have hip-hop to ourselves for a little while, have it how it used to be .
