INVADING SOHH CHAMPION
This is the exact bias he's talking about, there was a lot less music back then, it was filtered by industry and cultural gatekeepers. The 'golden age' of hip hop was manufactured around a dozen or so albums from artists who would go on to have poor discographies, save for the best of the best. Don't compare your best shyt to our worst. The modern ziesgiest is so decentralized that it's almost impossible to build that same legacy regardless of the quality of the music, but it also means the average album is much more creative and niche. The modern indie era absolutely shyts on the underground culture before the internet, so I'll call it even.
I've said it before on here, this type of emotional reaction is the exact same misunderstanding you would see between the fans of classic rock and punk/hardcore. 20+ years later unbiased people can see the value in both genres, I listen to youngboy and masta ace, they're both good, neither is 'better'.
It's like saying "my Porsche is faster than your tractor", it's fukking idiotic they're built for different functions. I don't want to speed on the freeway to fukking masta ace![]()
Sohh.

Mc negro and the Ignant mc and find no irony or issue.
