Same. Like I'll play some rap every few months when I'm in the mood but it's nothing like how I used to be in my younger years. I mostly listen to R&B. And usually it's the R&B joints we grew up on from the 90s and the 2000s. A few months ago I heard the Warmup Mixtape by J Cole and was surprised I forgot a few songs from the album because I legit haven't listened to the mixtape since I was in college back in 2013. I did play Dom Kennedy Gold Alphinas too for the first time in like 11 years, took me all the way back :wow:

Still listening to drill music every day, including every workout. :unimpressed:

I've held downa steady job since graduating, I got no crimes other than speeding to my name. I don't beat women, do drugs (other than that #POWDA! @Gully Bull), I pay my taxes and I floss and brush my teeth.

I do got the 30 on me like my name is Steph Curry, so maybe rap does have deleterious effects on brehs. :bustback:

Love hip hop too much to do that.

We all felt the same way at some point.
But with maturity and experience you realize some times if you really love something or someone you gotta let it go and quit fighting a losing battle.

I admit I stopped fukking with rap at first not necessarily due to toxic lyrics, but the overall drop in sonic quality, especially when the new South came in and changed the game forever

But once I was out, I then started to really notice I hated the lyrics way more than the poor production and rapping whenever I heard a track playing.

If rappers made seriously postive and enlightening grown Black man rap, not criminal degenerate junkie street rap then maybe. :manny:

I don't associate with or want criminals, illiterates and junkies near me so why support them on tape :mjtf:
