Around what year did you stop listening to "New" rap regularly?

[kuts]

Aside from a hot track here and there...

"New" in relative terms. The No Limit/Cash Money era could be considered new to some people just as the mumble rap genre.

2012

2012 sounds about right, because that was around the time that I thought the genre was going to evolve into something almost soulful, but in actuality it regressed to simping, tricking, and drug addiction lol

 

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

All I know is Spotify’s Rap Caviar is absolute trash

 

[QuintessentialBM]

I think TI's Paper Trail was the last commercial album I bought.

A little after "lean with it" came out
But I got back to it when A$AP Rocky, Drake, K.Dot, Joey Bada$$, and Odd Future was the top rosters of rap at the time, then when emo/soundcloud shyt came up, I stopped again.

 

[Uncle Baby Billy]

Right after the mustard era ended and the Migos/Future shyt started.

 

[TrapHouse Rock]

2008

Rap fell off a cliff and never recovered

77 to 07 was amazing mayne we ain't kno how good we had it

 

[Umoja]

2008. It became better to go back in time.

 

[Mandizi]

2017

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

The year when Canibus took out a notebook in a freestyle battle

 

[Stir Fry]

Non mainstream, non mumble street rap never really fell off to me. The 10’s were a little slow, but this last five year run has been great for the genre.

 

[Grand Eeezus Maxwell]

The Migos/Breakfast Club era

 

[Elim Garak]

2011 is the last year I recall listening to new rap and enjoying the music. It was getting bad though and I finally gave up I think in 2012.

 

[Fresh]

I don't check for new rappers per se, but if someone makes it on my radar I will listen

 

[Krs2]

There's much dope old shyt on YouTube that I don't even care about new music. You can listen to a random 90s underground compilation and find a gem

When that list of banned videos on BET came out and it was everything I liked
