[10bandz]

he had one of the best albums and verses this year.

My nikka Sean can snap. He got enough verses to show that

i haven't heard the album but thats fair i guess. I've heard him snap before but he's dropped some corny shyt also. imma have to peep his latest album

Author knocked it out of the park

I was listening to Cash Money/No Limit rap in the 90s about the same shyt trap rappers are rapping about now but let these "golden age" dudes tell it it was just pac and biggie

the CM/NL dudes were rapping on harder beats and better production quality as a whole. Mannie wasn't hoping on trends he was creating a sound. All that trap shyt today literally sounds the same, same drums same sounds. Also, Birdman/Master P were raelly bout that trap shyt.....these nikkas today arent. Future and Fetty Wap aint selling no pies, ever.

Basically, that 90s shyt was more authentic, at least in the example u brought up.

You wish I was a cac, Cac :squmad:

The genre, present day is shytty. It takes ZERO talent to make it on Hip Hop radio.

Hip Hop is the most popular genre right now, but quality wise it's near the bottom.

Partially because nikkas hate to buy music, and that's one of the reasons why cacs were able to dictate our culture :squmad:

u are the exact defenition of one of them "bububu real hip hop" cacs

FOH

 

[TEH]

All the points are valid actually

#3 and #4 are definitely wrong for both today and in the golden era.

 

[Starski]

Literally was thinking about this today. This should be pinned at the top of every "mainstream" music video on youtube. All points are true.

 

[904]

Inaccurate

There was more balance

 

[Homer Simpson]

rap is more corporate than ever

 

[tybo]

What the writer failed to convey in his off-base comparisons is that mix-a-lot was just one lane during his era. He wasn't the WHOLE FUKKING HIGHWAY!!! That is the major point these young dudes be missing. There is actually a lane for Future, but the lack of creativity and versatility of the genre is actually whats killing it! Hate all you want, truth is truth

 

[Easy-E]

Yes, tell me more about how young white liberals feel about Hip-Hop...

 

[Mandarin Duck]

He was 100% correct but watch the Coli come in here and still complain about all the shyt he listed.

 

[krackdagawd]

:shookboy: @ me caring what some hipster cac at cracked has to say about hip hop.

 

[ISO]

"But bu hip hop is trash now I'm done with the genre..."

Good riddance fake ass hip hop fans

 

[ISO]

u are the exact defenition of one of them "bububu real hip hop" cacs

FOH

The nikka is a walking contradiction anti-ghostwriting yet is a Kanye stan, talks about how autotune is wack yet stans Kanye

 

[frush11]

He's flat out wrong, and most likely was a toddler during the early to mid 90's

 

[PhonZhi]

Although a couple points are valid, the writer does not know enough about rap to be pontificating on it. There are better posts on the Coli about rap. He should join a rap board, read and learn. Get this amateur posturing outta here.

yea, as soon as he said "1995 is as far back as my memory goes" is when i disregarded everything that was said
