Complex just dropped their top 20 rappers in their 20s and it’s absolutely garbage. Thoughts?

Ain’t nobody gonna be listening to a 28 year old Lil Tecca in the future, nor a 30 year old dude named YEAT

I agree with you on fruity ass tecca, but yeat got some heat for dat ass

 

[KFBF]

Feel like Jim Jones should have got an honorable mention.

The future is not looking bright

 

[Tribal Outkast]

I legit can’t offer a true opinion because I’m too old to do so lol. This person is saying what I might say if I could argue though


There are some young rappers doing their thing right now but why bring them up? None of these people will care

 

[Tribal Outkast]

They way y’all talk about JID I thought dude like 23

this nikka 35 lol

One of my biggest complaints on hiphop fans now. Bruhs can be 10 years and 4 albums deep and people will be like “does he have next?” Because of a semi successful song thanks to TikTok or some shyt. It’s probably too late for bro lol

 

[Primetime21]

20 years ago this time people like Kanye West, Young Jeezy, TI, Lil Wayne, Ludacris were all in their 20’s.


The young talent just is not there anymore

The resident 40 year old posters in their second childhood are going to show up and tell you different, if they haven't already

I saw last week someone say Freddie Gibbs was a new rapper. Dude was signed to Interscope 21 years ago.

Industry ain't choosing variance they Choosing alrgorithn, each one of you dudes listed are completely unique from each other from the look, to the cadence, beat selection, shyt even when the subject matter is similar they all broached the shyt a different way.


Makes me also notice how it seems like the industry isn't pushing so much to get a wide demographic for audience.

 

[Amo Husserl]

It's official.

 

[SNG]

Doja cat and Sahbabii are the best on that list.

 

[M4T]

Rod Wave is a rapper? That's news to me

 

[Dizzle]

Wait...no Hot Rod?

 

[M4T]

They way y’all talk about JID I thought dude like 23

this nikka 35 lol

I didn't know he was almost 35, that gives me hope that I can still make it lol

 

[NormanConnors]

Was expecting to somehow see Fivio Foreign tucked into this list
