Who destroyed HipHop?

[Mr Uncle Leroy]

music labels and technology improved and destroyed songs.

label would put three hit songs and a bunch of fillers on an album, the fan would by the hitsong from the singls, and the 2 hit songs on the album

with seperated sales, the labels have to sale more, and the album is no longer "intact"

however the labels greed is their own doing, because if they caught to how the customer listened or shared files they would realize that customers wanted to choose their own songs from an album

rather than album with 12 songs, how about custom songs of whatever amount; a 12 single discs instead of all those songs on an album, but FTP, file sharing, naspter, itunes changed all that...and the music industry had a huge loss.

single songs is where its at, faster to go platinum on a song than an album, the fans listening spanner is shorter.

Soon its going to be ringtones as songs. 30 seconds songs on billboard

Hip Hop is better than ever. The problem is every moron with a keyboard think he or she's opinion is the be all end all.

Muthafukkaz look at a tracklist, production credits and deem an album classic or trash before a single song is ever heard.

Anal sex between Drake and Nicki Minaj destroyed Hip-Hop

No its not, stop lying to yourself. I think hip hop peaked at around 2005-2006 personally. New artists after that haven't been anything special.

Its one thing to be ok with the way things are, but to say better than ever is ridiculous

Point proven. You gonna tell me I'm lying to myself because I enjoy todays hip hop?

In what era has more than a few artists been anything special? None.

most of the posts are just about the commercial offerings of rap music fed to you by the labels and suits.

Hiphop is still here, there are too many good hip-hop artists, rappers, singers, producers etc. who get played by proper hip-hop heads for it to be dead.

Turn your TV and radio off, stop caring about what's hot on the streets and youtube views. Go and search for it.

Hip-Hop is far from dead, the internet has made it easier to show a lot of people whining about it though.
