Questlove out here saying hip hop is dead due to the Kdot and Drake beef

[Space Cowboy]

Who said it’s anything about a flex??

Its clear the OGs of the culture ain’t feeling this shyt.

People now disrespecting their opinions cause they wanna win an internet argument for their favorite rapper.

Truth is, none of this shyt exists without questlove(and other legends) I feel pretty secure in that my opinion aligns with theirs

shyt jumped the shark a long time ago

The OGs have outed themselves as hypocrites.

It’s not a flex because you have shown an inability to come to your own conclusions and are riding with something because of “the OGs” who are clearly full of shyt.

Hip hop OGs: “this battle is corny”

White girls on twitter “omg this battle is lit”


Ima ride with the OG’s

beat it

Pac and Biggie was street shyt and nikkas tried hard to STAY AWAY from that in hip hop since based on the results. Did u live thru that shyt or are u just talking? Cause alot of u nikkas speaking on shyt from word of mouth and not actual experience. The BOTTOM line is that this battle jumped the shark and it ain't about hip hop no more. AT ALL. Too many outsiders involved. shyt turned into nikkas tryna Me Too eachother. These nikkas ain't have no street beef before rap. This shyt is the type of shyt that would make a nikka take it to violence.

It’s like an episode of Black Mirror - one dude calling the other a pedo, the other calling the other one a woman beater and people cheering from the sidelines like The Simpsons

Most OGs wasn’t feeling the battle.

Made it to corny gossip fast and it never was actually about the raps. Just a proxy fight for internet stans.

People trying to force this into the mold of classic battles of the past are making a mockery of the culture

That’s the problem , it really doesn’t matter what og’s liked, all rap beef were comedy off takes with serious angles …from eazy e and Dre…..Gucci and jeezy , 50 vs ja

No.

We already went over this gossip =/= direct claims

I said this long before this thread was made. Just so happens everytime an OG speaks up i’m on the correct side of it, so i don’t have to disrespect their positions and opinions on the matter

yeah and no.

The clowning shyt is fine and expected.

The gossip shyt is something that wouldn’t have been received well back then.

I agree with Questlove, but not for the reasons he stated.

Kendrick and Pusha T dumbed down their lyrics when they battled Drake especially Kendrick even though he’s a superior MC.

Why? Because they didn’t want their lyrics to go over fans heads. Which is sad.

But this has been an ongoing issue for years when it comes to fans and rap music.

 

[Black Mamba]

Biggest feud in hip hop that has completely revitalized the game and this cornball saying hip hop is dead. He needs his bytch ass head slapped with his own drum stick.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Stick Up Kid]

Quest always been one of the corniest nikkas in hip hop

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Nah I def feel u I never liked QL. But I still see the point. OBJECTIVELY. The battle jumped the shark. Jay was jumping the shark wit that shyt too which is why Jay mom's made him apologize.

shyt crazy.

Everybody that doesn’t pick a side and stan hard is attacked.

Goofy shyt really created an environment where objectivity is actually frowned upon. You have to pick a side and go hard or your opinion don’t matter

Its clear the OGs of the culture ain’t feeling this shyt.

OG's the ones that let this Canadian fakkit rock.

 

[kt773]

yeah and no.

Hit em up lyrics? Even biggie line about faith and pac was some chatty patty shyt Same shyt fam, I can go deeper but my students coming back from recess

That’s on everybody tho.

All the people dissing him in 2024 have had a song or two or three with him in the past.

OGs have been reluctant to speak out cause they just get called old ass haters for saying anything, just like in this thread.

DMX told us that nikka wasn’t shyt a long time ago, but he was just attacked and dismissed as an old ass hater.

 

[MicIsGod]

Questlove shut yo hoe azz up and beat them drums

Literally came in here to do this

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Hit em up lyrics? Even biggie line about faith and pac was some chatty patty shyt Same shyt fam, I can go deeper but my students coming back from recess

Again. Making a claim that you yourself did something is not chatty party shyt.

Claiming you heard something from some unknown source literally is the definition of gossip.

I’m not sure why some of you are having such a problem with this distinction.
