I pressed the EJECT button on hiphop since 2009.

I'll admit I fell in love with the shyt in my late teens early 20s trying to fit in in America. And i really loved it for a while as sometimes i still go back and listen to some old joints (the roots, Wu-tang, dead prez, De La Soul, Talib Kweli) i loved back in those days. But over time shyt got weirder and weirder to the point it made no sense. Honestly once you reach a certain level of maturity you realize that most the genre (hiphop) makes no sense and a lot of artists are borderline garbage that labels prop up to make a buck off the day's trends.
Me discovering african music (Soukous and afrobeat) back in 2006-ish didnt help hiphop's case either. I have since fallen back to caribbean, french caribbean, latino, african and other joints. Might mix in some random hiphop every now and then but it's like 1 out of every 500 joints i jam to will be hiphop nowadays.
