Its like MFers who only eat ONE type of food....how is that even possible :dahell:
Fam, folks don’t have to like it. Don’t have to respect it even. Not everything is for everybody. I was mid 20s when that shyt dropped and knew the genre was making this shift that was no longer geared to me. Is what it is.

I hear you. But I don't have hate In my heart like that. I am music and appreciate music. Example; I don't rock with country music. That doesn't mean I can't acknowledge the art form. I don't have to hate on it.

I still remember listening to this and not knowing he was shock g…. What a great time to fall in love with hip hop.

Positive k, queen latifah, mc lyte, grand puba, de la soul, jungle brothers, heading for self destruction…. Wtf happened….
White folds with money found enough nikkas with lack of morality for anything disregarding money

I usually ignore but some shyt is such trash, not speaking out on it is a disservice to the craft. And it’s not hate, it’s being critical.

By what metrics? TBH any era was FULL of trash if you look at shyt objectively. Whats even worse is the 1s carrying the torch more often that not don't have the accolades or finances they deserved from their work.

And up until I say maybe 98-99, anything that was trash was rightfully dismissed but even that was subjective. Like someone like Skillz who ain’t got the right to talk down on anyone’s shyt like some elitist takes pride in “never listening to an entire OutKast” record. After a certain point, the “gate keepers” got to be cornballs with a voice. My bad, I’m just rambling

You sleeping. D nice, cl smooth, nice and smooth, special Ed. O.c., group home.. I can’t even make more than 4-5 rappers with different styles currently. You missed the point. It’s all good.

I rock with everyone you listed. Minus group home they were carried by primo LOL. There are plenty of different styles doing #s RN.

Lol for real man.it just doesn’t make sense to me: especially on a hip hop board. You’ll think it’ll be more diverse but it’s really an echo chamber

Yea its crazy. People seem to be stuck in their prime or will just ride or dye for their city. FOH. Mostly the "modern" MCs I fukk with are from nowhere near I'm from.

“My name is Humpty pronounced with a umpty.”
“ I’d really like to funk thee!”
Now, one of y’all tell me that wasn’t some hot garbage I wish you would.
Definitely not taking up for fukkinSoulja Boy but come on now. God rest his soul but I said what I said.
