Now that I think about it I'm coo with a lot of these new rappers and I find myself having a couple of songs of theirs I fukk with, but for whatever reason it's only the Hispanic and white rappers that annoy the shyt outta me :ohhh:

I fukk with Rich and Uzi, can't stand Pump and 69.

I don't like any of them you named, not Pump or Rich...nor Malone. I actually find Tekashi entertaining. Maybe its because I knew of him before he blew up from back when he was on his hypebeast wave but dude's Blood and gangbangin shyt is hilarious. Doesn't feel as ill-hearted like when 50 picks on random people, that I'm not a fan of. So far I've seen its usually other people who throw shots at Tekashi, then 69 responds and makes them fall back and accept defeat (The Game, YG, the Houston Mexicans).

Besides that, I'm not a fan of any rapper who does homo shyt (Young Thug) or blows up on some random song but doesn't have a catlog. It used to be you had to put in work before you blow up, nowadays you rap for 2 years and have a catalog of 3 songs and blow up. I refuse to listen to any rapper who doesn't have a BODY of work and blows up on some dikkriding shyt.

There's too many good rappers who've earned stripes for me to support, than waste my time on maggots just cuz they went viral off one song.

Notice how not once did you mention anything about a 69 song you like. I'm not saying you don't, but that's just not how I'd describe why I think the artist I named are coo.

Uzi and Rich have whole projects I'm fukking with.

If somebody asked me why I fukk with them I'd only say because I like their music.

There's a lot of artists who make good music, but my time and resources is limited. Read my edit above, I prefer to support artists who put in work and earned stripes. So i'd rather support the guy making good music for a while than one who just started and got fast-tracked be it going viral or being a plant. I fukk with the organic artists and want to support them over guys who getting the industry push. That's in regards to your last line.

As for Tekashi, i actually do like the screaming shyt. The game needs a DMX / Onyx type lane. Hip hop is so monolithic now, its hard to find variety. Note how almost nobody makes revolutionary/militant rap anymore, Immortal Technique was the last of a dying breed.

I think one could apply that industry plant talk to any artist they don't like.

I was familiar with 69 when he was just another SoundCloud rapper prior to the success of Gummo. For somebody who wasn't they could easily label him a "maggot who went viral off of one song".

I can tell you from my knowledge of Uzi and Rich they grinded for a minute before their success.

Rich stayed fukking up them Streets on Lock tapes with Migos before he eventually found his own success.

Read my post again, my comment about going viral – and me thinking Tekashi is entertaining, are two different points. The first applies to most of the young artists that happen to get radio play or big hits these days (That's what your thread title about, right?). My like for Tekashi is beyond that, he's got some fukkery I think is funny and a style that hip hop's been missing lately (so he stands out from the other "new age" rappers)


The problem with hip hop now is for someone reason everyone gotta be 18, otherwise you too old. Very few artists blow up in their late 20s nowadays. Dave East is one who put out mad tapes and only recently blew up. That's why usually these "new age" rappers don't have any catalog, why should I support them when there's more established artists who I equally fukk with that "deserve" it, is my feeling. Basically, a good tune will make me listen, but a catalog will make me follow. The popular artists nowadays lack the latter.

Well for the artist I specifically named, the one viral song industry plant talk doesn't apply to them because I'm familiar with their come up the same way you are with 69.

All I'm saying is I like the artist I named for their music alone, and its very telling that when someone is talking about why they like 69, They don't mention his music first.

Most of the people who like Tekashi would just as easily jump on a Slim Jesus, I won't. They like the fukkkery too, but that's all they like, and they want a young face to go with it: because they live vicariously through them. That's why Chief Keef took people's imaginations by storm. They were never used to young nikkas like those in the Drill scene doing this gangsta rap shyt.

Me, I'd rather listen to some Bay Area vets, some Philly vets, some NY indy vets. People you might mistake for being "new" or unfamiliar but when you look at their catalog, they run heavy so I can go back and listen to their old shyt.

Hip hop is so politicized, if you from the Bay or Philly or Texas, you're borderline blackballed. So i try to lend my support to them more. NY was undershined for a couple years too. Unless you from Atlanta or some young nikka who on some hypebeast / homo shyt, Worldstar and most sites don't even cover you. These people are curating (picking and choosing) for you who to like. No matter what people say about internet and choices, a "culture" is defined by the majority. This culture is being controlled by opinion-makers, its a matrix. I refuse to live by that. I'm from the Mixtape / DVD Era when you had two parallel cultures, the mainstream and the streets. Problem is, now the DVDs are dead, and Worldstar acts identical to the mainstream and they feeding us garbage artists to like and blackballing entire scenes.

Again like I said before, in the case of you describing what makes 69 appealing to you, you didn't say his music first.

When I describe what makes Rich and uzi appealing to me, I mention songs :yeshrug:

I don't know what Chief Keef of Slim Jesus have to do with anything I said :yeshrug:

You're hung up on Tekashi. Lord knows why :jbhmm: He was never the main point of my posts.

I thought your thread was about new age rappers as a whole and who we like. That's what I've been answering this whole time. :snoop:
