The real reason NY rap fell off

[Big Mel]

Globalization is the reason for everything.

Plus the music coming out the South is garbage. The South consist of 13 states and still hasn't produced more classics than Queens, NY.

They have very few good song writers coming from the South that can produced a song with a good concept and an interesting topic. It's mostly about how much money they got, how they pimping a whole bunch of biitches, and all the bricks they sell.

Its embarassing to listen to these rappers, because their music has no depth. I don't need substance or a message, that's why I can enjoy Redman, but I at least want something creative.

The music coming from the South is garbage.

That's y'all main problem, y'all wanna blame ur own failures on other regions. It dont matter how garbage u think the south is, that has nothing to do with fact that NY fell the fukk off.

Lets talk about how instead of helping to build up the NY hiphop scene, Jay Z would rather make Euro music and sign artists from the south.

Or how bout Busta Rhymes having to sign to a southern label just regain relevancy.

Or how bout lets talk about how u NY dikkheads sold hiphop out to these white folks long before it even had a chance to get started down here in the south.

That's all y'all do is point fingers when reality u need to look in the mirror. I hope hiphop never comes back to NY, u hating ass crabs Dont deserve her

HIP HOP has fallen off. Rick Ross, the hottest dude out, can't go gold. If you kids don't see that rap is waaaaaay the fukk over I don't know what to tell you.

NYC still has 1/5 of the platinum selling artists amongst its ranks.

1. hip hop isn't dead, it just lives in the internet now

2. GFID didnt go gold cuz it didnt live up to expectations. if he combined the best of GFID & Rich Forever he woulda went gold easy.

3. what are u doing here if u think rap is over?

 

[Big Mel]

living in the internet is globalization which speaks to my first post.

GFID is TD & Rich Forever combined and sounds exactly like a Rick Ross album should sound. He delivered exactly what he was supposed to.

i'm here because i've been listening to hip hop since i'm 6 and old habits die hard.


now, why you aresuch a moronic poster is the big question.

Ross aint went gold because his album just came out a couple weeks ago. Not many artists go gold their first week or two. The five listed above are about the only ones who goes gold or better in a week.

the NY style beats became harder to make and more difficult to clear

NY rap fell off coz the vets stopped putting on the new fresh dudes spittin that crack now the new rappers found their way, what homage?!

I agree.

I'm surprise Nas or the Jiggaman hasn't snatched up Joey Badass yet.

NY rappers are not talented or relateable basically nowadays....when NY has really been hot typically its been hot by default....they wuz the hottest when they first came out bcuz they were the first really doing it,all hiphop media wuz based in NY and bias....but then Cali blew up and took over,Cali fell off and it went back to NY bcuz Cali wuz weak and blackballed,soon as the south gained steam they took it back from the east.....east coast has never been able to really take the game from anybody.


Main reason is they culture is unique and all they own,u gotta give em that.....but nikkas don't relate to it,that's "east coast shyt".....most of the country don't live a "east coast shyt" kinda lifestyle....Cali,Midwest,South are all pretty similar....soon as we got our own representation in hiphop there's really no need to listen to dudes that are too "east coast" we don't relate to it,rap is about sellin a lifestyle and or makin it relatable....NY rappers talk about the worst shyt they can think of as far as NY lifestyle is concerned lol,piss in the hallways,bytches settin u up in the telly,fiends in they building,buck fiftys....hardly anything makin the ny lifestyle sound good.....Stack Bundles wuz the last relateable nikka to me,and probaly bcuz he spent sum time away in Chicago.....if NY wanna say how different they culture is they need to just be happy bein relevant in NY only,or they gotta change they style up and get on what other regions been on,live how we livin...otherwise stfu....NY "sound" is the exact reason they won't become relevant,besides the current lack of talent

This is the best answer, NY is too unique. Also doesn't help that these regions took alot of NY sh!t and made it their own (punchline rap for example)

ny suck because ny rappers are making wack music period.

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Its the homogenization of hiphop culture that helped destroy NYC HipHop..

All this MTV, Jurassic 5, soft rap Black eyed Peas shyt..

The shyt got too commercial and mainstream america got comfortable wit it..

fukkin Bill Maher talkin about he listen to Jay..
Back in the day hiphop was supposed to antagonize and go against the establishment..

Now the shyt is mad watered down wack shyt that has assimilated into mainstream society..

Its not for us anymore or exclusive..

I blame MTV, Jurassic 5 and Black Eye Peas..

ny suck because ny rappers are making wack music period.

this is the answer, i from the south(new orleans) and alot of the shyt yall saying bout to ny is not true, i a big fan of east coast rap, and love ny rapper, but they just been plain out wack, even if they wasnt selling and putting out music i would be bumpin, but they put out trash for the most part, and relying on corny ass white rappers who sound exactly like other nikkaz

so ima still be fan, but they just gotta make better music

keep it 100 since the 2000s is been philly>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ny on the east coast pecking order

Or how bout lets talk about how u NY dikkheads sold hiphop out to these white folks long before it even had a chance to get started down here in the south.

That's when everything changed IMO. major labels didn't even fukk with rap in the past. Then as they slowly started infiltrating and cats started selling out to these b*stards, shyt has never been the same. When NY said and made it "ok" to crossover, it was a wrap IMO.
