This shyt is much better than what the other dude posted but it's interesting you said they were all different sounds cause they sounded alike to me. Not anything I'd need to listen to again. Maybe I'd run the tee grizzley again.


I feel like it's rare for a new rapper to be able to rap really well and regularly say slick shyt. What was the last classic album to drop from a rapper that debuted after 2010?

That Tee Grizzely shyt was terrible.

Oh well if you liked that tee grizzley you probably enjoy the Detroit sound so you need to be one of the first old heads to get on Skilla Baby.








But yeah, I don't know how you listened to Striker Music, Donda Bag, and Mama Said and thought they all sounded the same but :hubie:


As for the albums I can't defend this recent run of mid. Closest thing to a classic from these new nikkas is Kodak's "Dying To Live" and that came out in 2018.

The artform has been dying a slow death since lyrics have been tossed to the bushes and replaced with a generic sound or type of song, and you see it with who is being pushed by record labels, rappers who have a combination of: having a gimmick or certain look, poor lyrics, nonexistent storytelling.

The Old School will always be crowned the Glory Days of Hip Hop.

Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-One, LL Cool J are the Mount Rushmore of Hip Hop















Growing up, we used to go song for song on the block, battling in the neighborhood of which rapper was better, long before Versuz was a thing. Exposing who had poor taste or just a lackluster collection, mixtape battles, hitting up Stans in McGinley Square to cop albums a week before official release. Hip Hop was always much more than just rap music, it was a culture within a culture that has been diluted and watered down to the point you'll be a fool to call it rap, kinda like stretching out the kool-aid when you dont have enough sugar.

What is today's Culture when it comes to Hip Hop?

That's cuz he posting corny shyt. He think corny music gonna win the old heads over cause new shyt is too gangsta. But the hottest shyt been gangsta since the late 80s, it's not finna stop now.













4 different sounds, no cornball shyt. Hip hop is doing just fine, but oldheads who haven't been outside in over a decade just wanna live in the times they was. Is what it is

And murder music isn't cornball shyt?
:gucci:

You're no better than the flabby nikkas

does the genre even have boy-girl groups like the fugees and digable planets these days? the genre does not seem more creative and diverse than it used to be.
The CompliMINTS is the first that comes to mind


The only reason yall can't find creativity in the genre is because yall don't want to look for it

Imagine if yall were kids in this generation. Yall would dig in the crates like yall did in your youth. The Internet (another boy-girl group) is limitless. There's no excuse

Did you post the wrong video? That wasnt a group. It looked like a solo artist with a band.
