Mainstream hip-hop is a big joke now. And sad to say but everyone from the fans to the label heads all played a big part in it.
How can anyone take today's rap seriously

I wasn't aware anyone still took rap music seriously.

Brehs if I had a trillion dollars folks would want me to invest in education, give it to charity, help Africa, etc. Nah fukk that, I'd spend it all just to make a time machine and send Drake, Tyga, Big Sean, and all these weak nikkas back to 1995.
Have them nikkas sent right to Queensbridge, Marcy, or Compton and wake up like this

That's due to the fact this era only has offered some of the most softest & watered down rappers, the art form has seen.

Thankfully I'm not a cynical jack ass otherwise I'd miss out on a lot of good music.
You dont even know how the music was to say whether it was better or worse, so what are you talking about?

My first CD was The Chronic nikka. What was yours? Thank Me Later? Thats a good 20 years family. 20 fukking years head start. Anywhere else, that shyt counts. If I was at a company for 20 years, or in a city for 20 years, or doing some hobby for 20 years, as a new dude you'd put some weight on my opinion. But in hip hop, its like, if you are a old head w/anything bad to say about what's new, you're out of touch or hating. Get the fukk out of here. These new dudes are cornballs, PERIOD. And I have a library of artists and musics to compare them to to prove it. Don't get mad at me cause you don't know any better than whats hot now and are too lazy to look through the history of the music you listen to.

There needs to be a shift, and it will happen soon. There will be an album that comes up and shifts the whole thing upside down.
Then the question is who from this current generation is able to survive the shift. I saw maybe, two or three big artists. The rest will fall.

"spit a sentence and the game will get rid of y'all"
To be honest tho. If Dr.Dre came out in this era. He would of gotten Rick Ross treatment real quick. Dre aint about that life at all. And he doesnt even have the lyrical skill to make nikkas ignore that.

theres good and bad artists in every generation.
in the 90s the good rappers were in the mainstream. now the good rappers are underground and the mainstream guys are the lames.
in the 2010s the balance of power is already shifting. YM is falling off and more respectable labels are coming to the forefront.
@ u nikkas who think rap isn't good anymore. fukk outta here, theres more good rappers than bad ones. u just not looking hard enough
