The Truth
the establishment/society didn't want the positive upbeat house music vibes infiltrating the destructive trap hop that they flooded the industry with.
this is not to say Azelia didn't do some straight up crazy stupid shyt, but from the jump, she was the most Influental, creative female out of her group and I could easily argue her being one of the most original dope artists of the last decade. for those of you reading that last sentence, you should definitely take a listen to her early music. now if you've never actually been to a real party with true house music by a real house DJ, it might be difficult to understand why this type of music alone is so powerful. The fact that AB blended it so perfectly and effortlessly on beat with flow and lyrics was never done before....not consistently.
I believe she had the type of music that could easily transcend genres and taken hip hop to it's rightful place OVER POP. See, Nicki was doing a poor man's Azelia the whole time she was in her pop lane, but couldn't really flow over a house beat with the finesse and flawless execution Azelia did. The type of beats she would kill even the best MCs we herald today couldn't catch or do anything with it.
Overall House Music is very positive and upbeat and puts you in a really good mood. I like alot of trap but it we're being honest it's mostly self destructive, vain and empty repetition over a hard ass beat. Occasionally you'll have some artist that break the mold, but as a whole, this is the direction that the culture went in and now has took a turn for the worst.
I'm not saying Azelia was hip hop's last great hope or that house music should've been the new wave for hip hop, but we did miss out on a vibe and a wave that could've been more uplifting. During her come up it seems Nicki got the push then a literal carbon copy aussie backed by the king of the trap himself was pushed to the top....as if to totally erase her from existence.
What ya'll think?
