yeah, i got that, hip hop has different genres and one genre does not represent ALL hip hop, i understand those points, is there something else im missing?

Throwing ALL hip-hop under the bus due to one genre you don't like is retarded and shortsighted especially when YOU control what you hear.​

Hip-hop doesn't concentrate on 'hoes and drugs'. What you choose to listen to concentrates on 'hoes and drugs'.

/thread. We need an infiltrator/cointelpro firewall/app for these kind of threads on the real. Pharrell's Happy song is 5x plat, it ain't our fault all you listen to is drill music :camby:

Question...
When an artists raps about being hard or "the struggles in the hood" when they never really were in the hood, like maybe they grew up in the suburbs and stared in tween sitcom or perhaps they've had millions since they were 13 or 14 can you as a listener still appreciate the music? If so do you appreciate the message or the production? (the beat)

Blacks allowing whites and Jews to infiltrate for a quick buck is what has allowed the art of hip hop to generate, word to Russell Simmons. People like you stating gangsta rap is destroying hiphop when that's what the CAC labels are promoting, that's what degenerates hiphop.



^^^How is this not hip hop? Just because nikkaz ain't rappin' like Coolie High don't mean it ain't hip hop breh. Some people really live the lifestyle they portray, if they rap about it as an outlet and a way out the hood that's hiphop to me, f*ck yo opinion.

but if you call that hip hop why do you say hip hop has degenerated, what has degenerated in hip hop according to you?

the same people behind chief keef are the same people behind russell simmons, so if you feel russel simmons did something bad how is chief keef good?

I agree with the bolded. I can respect crap rap that I don't personally like as an "art form" or expression of culture sorta like i can respect a piece of shyt painting that represents someone's view of the world and or interpretation of it.

What I can't stand is this formulaic mas produced fake shyt that is only a means to make money.

in other words don't be rapping about shyt you don't know or live or have lived it's phony regardless of whatever hot track your dropping it on.
