This is exactly what it is. Rap is just pop music for nïggas nowadaysHip-hop defenitly made me a more creative person. It was one of the best outlets I could have experienced as a teen. I met so many friends thru this who I would have never met otherwise. Had some great women 2.
Maybe I'm just old and out of touch but it just seems like a big corporate business now. I don't know how to articulate it.
Nobody cares about hip hop . This is just a legal lick to get some money that's all.
We certainly can (obviously)…we shouldn’t tho.
Keep saying, all this new stuff that doesn’t even sound like fundamental hip hop, aside from kinda rhyming some words and a heavy-bass beat, should be called something else, is it really hip hop? Distinguishing like that would probably help hip hop music.
People need to understand that there is a difference between the CULTURE (the container for the arts) and the GENRE/INDUSTRY built around it, or the rap game as people call it.
Hip Hop culture and the rap game are not the same thing...looking out into the genre/industry for the core fundamentals is a lost cause, because the people do not control the levers of power of said industry. The best thing for the actual culture is to let the rap game die, which it is. When it stops being soley used as a viable hustle for outsiders and people who have no reverence for the actual culture, people will be participating because that's what's in their hearts, not just for a come up.
Too late for that honey!
More importantly, these youngins in the game ain't trying to hear that.
