The Hip Hop Is Alive Thread
Play this song while reading below if you're new. This is the vibe we're on
This is a space where listeners young and old can put each other on to great music and talented artists in hip hop today. If it's conscious, music to smoke to, melodic, or whatever else, nothing is off limits in here
I'll post newly released songs and albums in here at least once every week. I strongly encourage everyone to do the same. Don't be afraid to post what you like and feel proves the genre is still striving
Songs of the week YouTube playlists will be posted every Sunday and songs of the month playlists will be posted at the beginning of every month for the previous month
There will be artist/song/album of the month polls with collective input from yall on who and what should be voted on. Year end polls and discussions of all the categories will be had too
This is also a place where we can have general discussion about what's going on in the culture. Trends, up and coming producers, overlooked unsigned rappers, so on and so forth
Let's keep this thread positive. You can criticize but don't overdo it while adding nothing of value. We're changing the narrative of The Booth in here, enlightening each other and spreading our love for the music
Let's open our minds and appreciate all of the artistry within the culture today
LiveSaver of the month ( December 2022)

After dropping arguably the best album of his Post-Nasir run this month, the man who once said Hip Hop Is Dead is ironically proving himself wrong, keeping the genre alive with everything he releases
