I don't know how y'all listen to that drumless shyt Roc Marciano, Griselda, Action, Alchemist, Apollo Brown, etc feed y'all. And worse, pretend like they're holding up hip hop in any way. When I know they can't even outrap 'randoms' like Blaq Poet and they definitely aren't producing anything close to Preem's little-known joints. Not to talk about middle-to-upper echelon boom bap artists and beats.
One of these tracks is vastly superior to the other.

Notice how low-energy that Conway shyt is. No aggressive, no rawness, low on swagger and funk. I associate boom bap with being the rawest, rowdiest, toughest and sharpest version of hip hop ever. The fukk happened?
I'd much rather bump 'mumble rap'. Real shyt. there's more energy and raw in that shyt than boom bap now. I dunno what happened to boom bap production but that shyt fell off a fukking cliff in the mid 2000s and never recovered. For those who still swear by new 'traditional boom bap': who's your Clams Casino? Your Metro Boomin?
Shout out to V Don and some of the stuff Retch rhymes on. That shyt's way more raw and creative than Alc, and it's sorta boom bap
