Is the rap game dying?

[DamienWayne]

2017 had a lot of good music but starting to seem like the era of hip hop moments is over . No real stars, just social media rappers , music comes and goes without the big rollout. Even the good albums. shyt just feels different

I think this might be the last decade of it's dominance as the most popular form of music. It'll be around for a long time after that.

 

[GetRichOrDieTryin]

The quality is dying. Rap is actually very popular still

Depends on your age

 

[Mirin4rmfar]

Not really, just a lot of rappers don't have staying power but we are rapidly being fed hits after hits due to social media. Chill Bill rappers are nowhere to be found, Lil Pump will soon be a goner etc. etc.

Well, the 1st quarter has usually been dry
Wait till the summer when the big names start droppin

Feel like it's not targeted towards brehs anymore outside of a few releases because of streaming..

Everything is geared towards thotties and kids..:dogsnagjordan:

Been listening to more rnb and house this year.. I'm only 28

Shoutout to Krit, Ross, Cyhi, and Kendrick tho

No, you're just getting older.
Rap is still the dominant popular form of music in America.
You can debate whether the quality has declined or not.

No real stars? Future, Drake, Uzi, Migos ain’t stars??

Rap lost it's meaning in the early 2000's. It's just pop culture music now. The sooner it dies the quicker it can be reborn. Bring rock and roll back.
