Can we just admit the south killed hiphop? and stop being so PC?

[DrX]

They totally killed our genre. Its so watered down that the entry skill level is non existent. Now little Asian girls are making more money than poor black kids from the hood.

Y'all simplified production. Sampling took musical knowledge and skill. Chopping, placing, sampling drums. Chopping loops kicks, creating new shyt.

As we know rhyming takes skill and intelligence. U have to actually write a 16 that rhyme, have metaphors , on beat, flow and actually touch the listener soul.

In order to get a record deal back in the day u had to all of that plus avoid the nikkas trying to extort you and find a way to get inside a A and R personal space

The south killed our genre. NYC cats was spitting that real shyt. Hard shyt. Southern nikkas kill it and soul it for cheap. Y'all nikkas sold your people out because really you sold black culture and for that I'll never ever forgive y'all. I grow up on this shyt. I cried to this shyt, its the story of my childhood. I really love hiphop

I remember the first time I heard N.S.O.M. I was like whos that !!!!!! or the times pac made me cry in my room alone. Hiphop used to mean something

Hip Hop aint dead.

It just got knocked up and had a few kids.

 

[SuburbanPimp]

Nah... Can't rock with that.

Nobody killed hip hop

It's more alive then its every been

Listen to what you like you don't have to follow or be influenced by mainstream trends...

 

[Why]

[AtlienInTheGoodieMob]

Maybe new york music scene shouldnt have become so stagnant

 

[smokeurobinson]

OP is off...DJ Drama already admitted so on TBH. And he said it on a mainstream platform thats bigger then this messageboard so op is off because DJ Drama wasn't PC on a mainstream platform. The topic is old and stale so when DJ Drama said it no one really cared.

 

[KingsOfKings]

this definitely won't end well.

 

[BaRRyG]

No... It ain't dead, it just has no real voice anymore.

 

[Jacaveli The Don]

I agree with OP

That snap shyt from the early 2000s with the oversimplified, nursery raps was the beginning of the end

I won't miss rap anymore

 

[Terrance Curtis Beasley]

No. Drake is from Canada not from the south.

 

[Pit Bull]

The east coast killed they self. Should have kept making the music they like instead of standing around crying and pulling they dikk.

 

[RammerJammer]

Strongly disagree because Hip Hop not dead

 

[DrX]

Hip Hop aint dead.

It just got knocked up and had a few kids.

aww man come on..its dead..its finished. how is it not dead?

 

[Bugsmoran]

The South always had music that wasn't considered real HipHop but the South loved it.

What killed Hiphop is when the Eastcoast Dj's and video shows started playing that music more than real HipHop
