why is everyone in The Booth trapped in the early-to-mid 2000s?

@Kenzo eat a lil b dyck....this the type passive agressive fakkit shyt y'all be on.......soft as wet tissue paper....foh, ELEVATE

We got to see hip hop in its adolescent phase when the original rappers and DJs still had a say on the culture

Plus your era had standards and would call shyt out when it was wack. No you can't say shyt about anything without being called a hater.

Somebody post a 21 Savage song. I've never heard shyt from him and now I'm curious.

 

[Neuromancer]

One of the hottest songs right now features the words yeah 7x before am actual lyric is rapped. Why is that?

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Bruh Jeezy came out in 05. You don't have to be in your mid 30s to understand the career arch of Jeezy.

Big Rhyming words is how describe the era y'all like. Really its just the type of lyrical rappers y'all prop up from the 90s
.

I understand Big Daddy Kane's career arc but that doesn't mean I'm in his generation. You can't claim rappers who were old enough to babysit you

And you still haven't given me any examples of these big word rhyming MCs

You keeparound the question

The amount of flabbiness in that forum is astounding.


I imagine everyone in The Booth to be no younger than 25 years old.

If I wanted to learn about the current musical climate I couldn't go to The Booth.

Sounds like a capital opportunity, young lady. Time to seize the moment. Go start another forum somewhere else and ban any members who talk about rap music before the trap era.

Like I said that's becuz pioneers still had a voice. Rap is the only genre that disrespects its elders and that's not a new thing at all

this is just revisionist history and alternative facts.

Rap is still very much a competition rappers just don't focus on making lines end with big rhyming words.

Everyone wanted to monetize their talent of rapping

Breh rap is nowhere near as competitive as it once was....Drake big Sean Kendrick J Cole and sorta meek and wale pretty much round out your top competitive MC's today.....the rest basically want to creat their own lane to tread water in....and no hate in that, but that sometimes means using and doing questionable antics to achieve distinction and individuality....

And your big rhyming words comment is flat out corny.....not everyone was canibus or keith murray....that's what made them canibus and keith murray....crack wack jokes to appeal to your generation brehs.....fish for young boy daps brehs

They ain't rap about smoking it though. nikka's would have gotten the bush immediately.

Using crack was never cool in hip-hop till this day it's not. Other drugs were talked about though.

Wu-Tang talked about smoking angel dust...
Raekwon and GFK were snorting coke in their interludes...
Biggie said the X made the sex immaculate...
DJ Screw was supplying the South with Screw tapes and instilling lean culture...
Cash Money was rapping about using dope as in heroin...
Redman was rapping about taking acid...
Eminem was talking about pharmaceutical drugs...
The 80's rappers were naming themselves after cocaine (Kurtis Blow, Coke LaRock) and casually talking about recreational cocaine use (Schooly D). Every damn album seemed to have a stoner anthem.

Booth posters remind me of the barbers at my barber shop who be like 40 bumping D-Block all day and complaining about what's on Hot 97...sadly even they are more tolerant of modern hip-hop than some of y'all...

You described my old barber 15 years ago....and he in jail now

How old are you? Jeezy is around my age so unless your in your mid 30s like me he's not from your generation.

I'll name the rappers giving wack shows if you answer the question i originally asked. Who were these rappers rhyming these big ass words?

Exactly....cats don't know what they talkin bout and just deflect to some cornball shyt

 

[DatNkkaCutty]

This isn't some accomplishment breh.

It's a testament to how out of touch this forum is. Dudes pumping their Chest because they don't know some of the most popular hiphop acts out

Nelly was popular too back in the day....I didnt listen to him either. I guess cornballs did outside of the females....times havent changed I see.....

3 Grammy's off a mixtape


I'm 31 by the way

Again.....Ill stick to my lane....u can stick to yours..... If were the same age....it just proves while I was listenin to Hov back in the day....u were playin some Pharoah Monch or some shyt
Different strokes for different folks

How are the elders disrespected?
