Anyone else EXTREMELY bored with Rap nowadays?

[powerpainpleasure]

Crack Baby Syndrome...

At least once a week a new video, mixtape, beef, altercation, whatever happens in Hip Hop.

There was a point in time where there was huge stretches between new albums/music and anything about the artists. We have it made these days.

These nikkas getting geeked at this stale and overrated era of rap

There's only so much you can take from riding around and getting it, clubbing and doing all the same dance moves and then realize how bad rap has become. You think those born before the 90's hate how hip hop has become now? wait until you little niglets get older and react to it worser than us!

Aside from ASAP Rocky, the current commericaly popular rappers aren't at all interesting to me

I think the main problem with these commercial rappers is they are trying hard to be "Legends" and not being themselves. They see how classic the 90s and early 2000s were, and think they have to spend their whole career living up to it, instead of being themselves. When the 90s rappers first came on the scene, obviously they were competitive, but their main objective was "Imma do me". Now these rappers are like "Imma do like Nas, Tupac, or Jay-Z". Just like J Cole said how legends gotta make room for the new rappers. No nikka, YOU gotta burst on the scene, be original, and take Hip Hop by storm

Everything these new rappers do is so robotic. "Yeah...yeah.. imma say I'm the greatest since Biggie and Pac "
"Imma sample Outkast and Bob Marley so nikkas would see I'm a legend by association "
"Yeahh... yeah... imma say, imma murder these nikkas on tracks, and make sure they got no new fans "

"Yeahh, that'll make me a legend "


Everything's so robotic now..

im getting tired of these lames saying the early 2000s was on the same level as the 90s. nah its not its just the time period you grew up on and think everything released in the early 2000s as classics when in reality,,,, early 2000s was just as bland as now.

 

[Jone2three45]

The early 2000's weren't that bad breh...

 

[MercuryHayes]

Rap started getting silly during the 50 era let's just be reality. Not everyone was into the fake tough guy rap.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Dopest shyt spit in a long time. Y'all still yappin about subpar rappers or maybe y'all just don't know good shyt when its right in front of you.

the kendrick verse put some excitement back in the game again...there are a lot of albums that came out that i have yet to listen to that i heard were good like the Juicy J album, Rapsody, Fat Joe mixtape and the El-p and Killer Mike album..rap is in a good state right now

That El P and Killer Mike was weak to me. And I really liked RAP Music.
