Yup. 2001 onward it fell off.

I’m real anal about it, to me, the decline started after 96’, the shift in culture

This is not to say it wasn’t still great albums, but hip hop become more of business or more corporate

There was still moments but not like it was from 88 to 96

Appreciate it breh breh :salute:

And I fukk with the same era, lol. I just don't box myself in :manny:

Old shyt. New shyt. Dope music is dope music :wow:



I hear you

Honestly I don’t either anymore, I just listen to other shyt and choose not to really engage in this tired topic as much these days, it’s just funny when I see people say it now when it’s been this way for decades to me

I just saw the thread and had to drop in this time tho lmao

Hip Hop was over when Kanye’s fakkit ass beat 50 in that battle… shyt became more beta than ever.

Kanye wifing up a whore and Lil Wayne kissing Baby wouldn’t have flew back then. Neither was cats wearing skirts. U didn’t see Pac rocking a dress.


The culture did kinda shift into some weak shyt which is why we got Drake.

As much as cats hate Drill, that era wasn’t full of sissies and squares.


Chiraq nikkas may not could rap but they’ll kill your ass.

Once dudes like yachty, young thug & uzi got a pass, I knew it was over for while. To see grown men defend these cats was shameful, all because they were "popular"

Meanwhile, Young Thug was causing chaos in the streets like Lucky Luciano…

No one thought that a man wearing a wedding dress would be out here shooting nikkas

hip hop ain’t been shyt for a real long time

Like collectively as a culture

96 was the last great year




#oldheadspeakingtruth

Hell nah…


01 was a good year, 04 was a ok year,


05 was a legendary year along with 02-03

07 was probably where it went downhill and a lot of OGs weren’t selling shyt outside of Snoop, Jay-Z, Nas, and 50

Even in 07, the albums started to go down in quality but there were gems

Street DVDs were popular then and we had Gucci Mane in the streets ruling the underground.


The South had took the East’s spot and had everyone wanting to use their student loans to cop a brick after hearing Jeezy.
