i feel u OP, hip hop done became too soft, i have no problem with this new lighter type trap shyt, but we need that balance. I also think white trappackers ruined hip hop but thats just me :yeshrug:

i miss the hood presence in hip hop
hip hop came from the hood, we invented that shyt
i feel like the hood ain't really bein' represented right or at all really :mjcry:

I agree to an extent, it varies from scene to scene though. The Bay Area for example always had both even in the 90s, the alternative ("hipster") presence and fanbase (i.e. Lil B, Andre Nickatina, BSBD, Antwon, Main Attrakionz, etc.) co-existed with the more hardcore scene and there were was some early crossover artists in the late 90s/early 2000's who bridged the gap between both scenes like Andre Nickatina and more recently Main Attrakionz.

true but y'all know exactly what i mean and it's very different from how it was in the 90's. y'all know it too



i see bunch of hipsters and posers who try to come off hood but just look like a bunch of skinny jean punks :dame:
it's 2016 supposed to be different breh

We've gone from Casette tapes to CDS to MP3s to Streaming :wow:

From Yo MTV Raps and BET Uncut to pornhub & Youtube :blessed:

It's their genre now, let the youngin do what they want with it

Pretty sure there are some Kool Moe D/Juice Crew/ Kane fans feel the same way about the 90s
