Black people have become the culture vultures of our own culture in hip-hop.
There's no respect amongst us. And anyone who tries to hold the bar/level to a certain standard is called an "a bitter/old head" So there's no more quality control.
Used to be you had a love for the art....and the women, money, fame etc were perks of your hard work. Even dudes who made pop smashes like Sir Mix A Lot, Tone Loc, Coolio had skill that they honed for years. And the game gave them back something in return for their effort.
Now dudes like Lil Yachty(who I've never heard a song from....maybe he's dope I dont know) just get on and want the spoils, want to ravage thru the culture and will leave it worse off than before. Sure a few of these types always existed, but now there's very FEW rappers left to balance it out.
Used to be a pop/corny rapper would have his moment, and then a Jay Z or DMX or Eminem or WHOEVER of supreme skill would step in and drop something to re-direct the hip-hop ship. Change the game so to speak.
Not no more.
