Is country music taking over as the top genre over rap?

[Premeditated]

Hip-hop still the number 1 streaming genre brah knock it off

for how long?
the percentage keeps decreasing every year

We have this argument every few years because people became hyperfixated on album sales and billboard charts and don't understand that Country is a genre that doesn't parallel hip hop in any way.

FWIW, country music is where a lot of failed white rappers end up cause they couldn't cut it.

kid rock...

It keeps decreasing for every genre tho

Give nikkas like Rod Wave a guitar and you’ll see RnB, country and blues flow seamlessly

hip hop is in its hair metal era, shyts trash.

So what you saying is, hip hop’s about to go through its grunge era phase and completely rebel against that shyt.

Hopefully sooner than later tho.

If Garth Brooks' album in 95 sold what Pac or LL sold, his label would probably drop him.

Country has always been bigger than Hip Hop.

You named one of the biggest artists ever to make a point of Country music being bigger than Hip Hop. It wasn't. To put this in perspective, Michael Jackson wasn't even doing Garth Brooks numbers in the 90's. N'sync and Backstreet Boys were going diamond and still weren't doing Garth Brooks numbers. Him and Shania Twain were anomalies. All country artists were NOT doing those numbers.

Folks tired of listening to the same song since 2016 Drake Kendrick Cole and Future carrying the shyt

So that’s why Jellyroll made the switch.

Yep he knew where the money was.

His voice is more suited for country music if we’re being honest.

Post Malone can genre hop because he’s talented at it, which he doesn’t get credit for.

Grunge didn't last that long and the ones who were on top hated being there (they even hated it being called grunge). Every genre wants something that totally alters how we hear shyt, but hip-hop has already had that moment (and has gotten half a century of music out of it). It's not like grunge went back underground where only the real could feel it.

Garth Brooks has released seventeen studio albums, two live albums, and fifty-one singles. He has sold estimated over 170 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling music artists in history.

just think about that

Kid Rock wasn't a failure before he jumped to country rock. He didn't pivot until years in his career.

Jelly Roll would be a more valid argument.

Country had always sold huge since the 60s

Garth Brooks probably sold more than every rapper combined in the 90s

She outsold 2Pac
