It seems like all of these “hip hop” podcasts only talk about old shyt.

Technically all that Chiraq/Trap Lore/Julio Foolio content is about new hip hop music :manny:

I kinda view this the same way I do the music, if you search you will undoubtedly find something you like, Sway, Dregs1, No Vultures, BOF all interview newer artists

Theres lots of platforms that still cover new artists and aren't centrally focused on the gossip and the bullshyt, theres a clear agenda going on with who gets pushed to the top in the hip hop media realm and its kinda on us (the audience) to vote with our views and push shyt into the spotlight. At a certain point our complaining has to turn to some type of action, whether that be supporting platforms you can actually get behind or boycotting the ones that are clearly stagnating the culture or veering it further in to a devolved state of murder and hyper sexualization.

All I'm interested is is in old stories from older artists. I don't care about older artists new music, I'm not listening to that shyt outside of a select few exceptions.

New rappers don't have enough skin in the game to really provide any great stories. Unless the rapper himself has a good background story then I might be interested but 9 times out of 10 even if they do, they don't articulate it well, so that makes it a boring listen.

Very few modern rappers are good interviews.

Young nikkas is not sitting around listening to rap podcasts. They watch streamers, tiktoks, IG lives, youtube shorts, etc...

Long form podcasts is for old nikkas like us. So of course they gonna market towards things from out era.

Music?

They barely talk about music. Most of the time, it's gossips: who slept with who, who had a bag, who was a street dude, etc

You're not listening to the right podcasts.

Back when Combat was still around, the whole talk would be about music and the journey as an artist. There are plenty of quality joints still around that do the same with legends. I just listened to a Diamond D one a couple weeks ago, and an Erick Sermon episode. But those are not the ones that people on here focus on.

All they do is reminisce. No new shyt except bullshyt gossip. They milked the Drake/Kendrick beef for all they could.

This is because Hip-Hop has been dead for decades.

For me, Hip-Hop more or less ended in the mid-00s.


I just relive the glory days by listening to old songs and enjoying podcasts that discuss the 90s Hip-Hop scene.

No one wants to listen to podcast about Young Baby Poopypants and Bart da Ruler. Or whatever garbage ass rap kids are listening to.
