It’s not about the majority saying they’re good, the market is flooded. Even young mainstream rappers have lower bar of popularity compared to the generations before. Like I said, this is literally the most diversified era of music listening ever. Group think and popularity contests defined the 00’s IMO

Ain't no way....

There is no diversity in music at all.
There is no real separation in regional sounds.
And the content is all the same.
You probably couldn't even tell where a rapper is from by his sound anymore.

And the biggest are drill or thot rappers.
There's always going to be "other" acts but they are pretty much unknown.

That's why this Kendrick thing is funny cause it feels like people say he's popular. People know who he is but I ain't hearing people play his sh*t like Megan or sexy Redd.

Back in the day any talented rapper could be popular.

Dude is such a dummy.

it's not about "cherishing the bloods and crips".
It's about USING HIP-HOP, USING MUSIC to BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER.

Imagine a building full of LEGIT ENEMIES coming together for music, to have a GOOD TIME
and foster COMMUNITY.

Last time there was a bunch of different sets/sections together, Drakeo got stabbed in the neck.
(admittedly Drakeo antagonized a lot of people and brought the wrong energy).

This time everyone was ENJOYING THEMSELVES and keeping it HIP-HOP!!


He's still going on there too

So East Coast rappers, cool

Not at all. I tried to keep it short
We all grew up on cube, Snoop and dre. So that's nothing
I like DPG but Kurupt is mainly my nikka.
I f*x with Short
I know y'all like to sh*t on Game but he is that nikka.
I love 36 Mafia and I love any of the older Texas rap. (I literally still listen to screw)
I Didn't get into Nipsey. But I see why people like him.

The better picture that can be painted about my taste is a like hood music and nikkaz that can spit

So what?


Game being a bipolar clout chasing goofy who loves the attention of BEING a bi-polar clout chasing goofy is completely his fault and directly linked to why he wasn’t on that stage when damn near every notable West Coast artist was. Just because somebody helped you in the past doesn’t obligate you to be bothered by their self destructive behavior in the future. Game is one of the most talented MC’s who ever lived but he’s also one of the dumbest. He’d really be a liability to what Kendrick actually DID accomplish the other night.


Oh, don't get me wrong, I agree with everything you said. The number one reason Game wasn't there was Game & his own actions. My original reply was to a conversation that suggested that Game didn't do shyt for some of these younger artists.

There's a lot of weirdos out there who still influenced others or helped pave the way. Doesn't change the fact that they're weirdos
