Who else is saying this? not the majority of core hip hop groups bru. will you ever see a migos album quoted next to a mobb album? nah
I dont care what anyone else is saying. No one else dictates the music I hold in a high regard.

To Pimp A Butterfly, Krit Wuz Here, Taylor Allderdice, Rich Forever are all classic Albums.



Shawty Lo got a classic track too. "Im Da Man" go like a muthafukka too. And "Laffy Taffy" caught a bad rep

Youre comparing undesputable hip hop classics to albums that were released in the past 3 years ..... in 10 years time no one is bumping any of those albums apart from maybe kendrick

i mean ,seriously, if u havent given up on looking for "dope" shyt, give it another year or 2 and the sound of hip hop will be so differrent you will.

how can someone who is 35 plus expect to understand what a 20 year olds definition of dope is like?

and to u "i grew up in the wrong era" kids, shut up.

listen to lil yachty, kodak black, young thug,lil uzi vert and playboi carti. u cannot tell me they arent dope as fukk

u cant


/rant.
That would be true if everything that is cool now wasn't done before:troll:

It's new to you, not to me.

I like some stuff out, but most is wack or just good, and repeating each other.

My era shyt we did was not done before, so I feel I could say if shyt is dope or not:martin:

i think hip hop is dope these days and also filled with trash, like music through all eras has been. i dont think too many people are just salty old heads for the sake of it. the highs of this time just arent as high as days gone by but the quality is still ridiculous. everyone is ten times more cynical because they've heard how good it can be in the past but if this era didn't have any other time to be compared to i think there'd be a lot less bytching

we live in a day and age where quantity is at an all time high and people just comment on what comes across their radar like its representative of the artform as a whole rather than praising what good shyt they find after digging. attention drags artists to the surface and it's been exploited more than ever before.

It wasnt my introduction to hip hop, but my point was ... even after the 90s ... you could still fukk with the commercial shyt heavy if you was from that era and respectably ... since then shyt has gone down hill 10 fold


I fukk with the Radio Singles too tho. Some of them alot, others not so much. It only becomes an issue when they play the same songs multiple times within a few hours. And then when u flip to another Station that shyt comes on again Then or Right After


But I honestly have no idea what youre trying to get at. Maybe you're Radio Stations are just Cheap and only play music for Advertising Money or the D.J. sucks....... Or both

You was talking about how commercial now and commercial then was a different thing, I was cosinging this. Commerical back then was still dope and classic music, now its not the same.

My point is that the old school legends are only cosigning these new rappers to stay relevant..
And you still haven't proved that. All you said was Raekwon put out a new album with hot artist of this era.. No fukking shyt everyone is doing it nowadays. With the exception of Cole and Kdot a lot of artist have been collabing on each other's albums.

No. I was talking about the open "free market" Politics of the Industry today verses the tightly constraint and small batch of Artists From Major Labels of yesterday.


But its kinda obvious to me that u don't understand the Industry like that either. I kinda figured that after u quoted me but I ain't wanna do u like that

He's not from The States and he grew up on Tim Westwood. Of course he doesn't get it.
